Hasnt Slater played RT for the Chargers in the past and done really well there? If true i think Alt goes to LT and the switch Slater to RT.

Just seems like such a weird thing to do.  When Slater has looked really rock solid at LT.  Why spend the premium to make your solid LT into a RT? 

And it's basically either that, or try to make Joe Alt learn a basically totally new position as a rookie...after spending the massive premium to take a locked in LT.

He’s a better LT but you’re basically asking him to transition over to a position he never played before since what high school?

I'm guessing Slater moves over to RT? Although might be silly to move a dude who's proven he can play well at LT.

Nope, pretty sure he clocked some time at RT at Notre Dame.  Hasn't done it since his freshman year, but he has done it.

Also, you're forgetting the massive addition-by-subtraction that is Telesco's dumbass project Trey Pipkins relegated to bench-at-best and probably a cap casualty ASAP considering he's not worth holding at that extension Tommy gave him.

Yeah, I've thought from the start they should've grabbed a top WR, as the odds of a competent RT in a mid-round seems way higher than a WR1.
