Why won't we help the tackles?

With franchise LTs there's usually 2-4 in each draft and nearly all of them in the first round...top of the first round.  Outside of that, it's a reach to develop/groom a guy for that role.  They have to be the "day one" guy or you are honestly grasping at straws.  When we drafted Gross, he was drafted to be unquestionably that "day one" guy at LT.  We need that  player in next year's draft badly, and it probably won't be Hurney or Rivera making the selection.

Gross started off playing right tackle....

We can start by moving Moton back to left and Williams back to right. That's on nobody but Rivera and Norv.

You are correct and quickly moved to his permanently home at LT.  Why did the staff smartly begin him at RT, albeit briefly?  LT is extremely tough, especially for rookies and the staff wanted to get him some game reps before putting him on an island by himself.  For all of Fox's faults, that was one of the smartest moves he made and we have to also thank the Vikings for not being able to get their card turned in on time for the opportunity to select Gross.

Our OL coach was fired by the Ravens for a reason.
