Blue Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 (edited) Quote they have Sewell locking up the other side I don't know why y'all are giving Baltimore a pass on playing a right tackle on the left side. I can't think of a single other NFL right tackle who would get the same "it's fine" treatment from voters.

But I can understand why others would not give the benefit of the doubt there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing with a guy like Ramcyk. I think he'd be fine as a LT in the NFL, but I couldn't blame anyone for assuming a slight downgrade having not seen him do it at this level 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly Wirfs was athletic enough, I always felt even at the time of that draft that he easily could've played on the left side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you seriously going to sit here and tell me you'd be fine with someone starting Lane at left tackle all season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedGold Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 If they played LT in college, and are dominant at RT in the pros I'm more likely to give the pass. If they played LT in college, and aren't a stud.. yeah I'm likely not giving the pass If they didn't play LT in college, and are a stud RT. I'm likely not to give the pass. If they didn't play LT in college, and aren't a stud. Good luck 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant...why would Wirfs get a full pass at LT before this season when he'd never done it at any level. I could see Sewell getting dinged for it less cause he played LT in college.

I could see Sewell getting dinged for it less cause he played LT in college. Because nothing about his play made me feel like he couldn't easily make that change at any point. I know most won't agree with me on this. Edited November 2, 2023 by rackcs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PR Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Everyone debating Wirfs being a LT... Trent Brown who is an actual LT was on the tradeblock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
