Left Tackle Daryl Williams?

[UpstatePanther]

i have to admit, i really like the way this sounds:

Williams - Norwell - Kalil - Turner - Remmers

we would absolutely maul opposing defenses once Williams comes into his own... O.o

i did not see this coming. but i like it.

If Williams ends up being even an average LT, if he wins it, I'm willing to crown Gettleman King of the Carolinas.

Hope he gets a long, hard look during preseason.  Looking forward to the Bills game.  DG didn't have many options during FA or the draft to address the position.  Hopefully, we got a steal with Williams and he can step in as an upgrade ...OR ... we get lucky with a vet that doesn't make a final roster.

I really hope this works out because he seems like the best answer....I feels like they are just tossing tackles at a wall to see which one sticks.

Did Coach Rivera mention how he felt about the job he did in the presser?

Our LT position sucks so much, we need to just have the best tackles on the field even if they are both RT.

[BigBoss]

YES!

 

And forget Vet egos, if Oher and Nate keep looking like garbage, let the rookie try his hand!

Our coaches only make changes due to injury.

That is just stupid logic that is unfounded.  They make changes when they feel that the guy who is starting is not as good as the guy who is backing him up.  We started 7 rookies last year and that was not all due to injury.  Sometimes we use injury to say that is why we are making the change to preserve the veteran's ego but Rivera has not been unwilling to start a rookie over a veteran and will make changes when he feels they are ready to start.  Most times you may be forced to play a rookie earlier than you would like due to injury but you didnt play them just because of injury, the injury just made you act sooner than you would liked.   If Williams starts in week five due to Oher struggling or being injured it will be because he needed that long or longer to be ready. If he does well it would be a stretch to say he should have started all year.

[KillerKat]

Oher is proving all of his critics right. We have all seen this play out before last season. He just is terrible. Oher is not the answer.

[panther4life]

This is excellent news. I like the fact they are at least investigating different options to analyze who the best man for the job is. All we can ask of the coaching staff at this point. 

They have to play the cards they are dealt and glad to see they are using what they have in their deck

Remember him playing LT vs Bama in the sugar bowl the other year.  And completely killed Bamas pass rush.

This shouldn't be a surprise to anybody. Gentleman said is his post draft presser that Williams would get looks on both sides. It is great to see though.

This web site is getting really Fox Newsish when it comes to Oher.   I look and see other people on the line have been beat but listening to Igo and the rest of you it's apparent that only Oher has given up a sack.
