Turner returning?

Unless Turner's ankle injury is severe I would assume he would return for the SF game.  Also Little hopefully comes out of concussion protocol and be available as well.

With Daley playing well do we keep him at LT or put Little (our 2nd round investment) back in at LT?

With a healthy O-line we have options.  What would be the optimal O-line heading into the SF game.  SF front 4 is pretty stout.

Dennis Daley is better than Little and it will be a shame if we move him to guard simply because he was chosen in the 6th round.

Draft status is a sunk cost, and we should keep Daley at left tackle

the primary objective for an oL is to field your top 5 oL and keep them there in that same position throughout the year unless of course an injury arises. & what this does is create a sense of familiarity with  one another so they are collectively playing in tandem or let's say as a unit..now here's we currently stand taken into consideration Daleys recent performance on the field  & that is choosing which one of our starters to replace in either Van Roten at LG or Little at LT.so moreover the decision is not who's better Daley or Little but. instead who is better Van Roten or Little?

I think you leave Van Roten in for now because of experience. He helps call out blitzes and coach up Little or Daley. I would roll with Daley, Roten, Paradis, Turner, and Moton. Have Little ready to come in for Daley if he struggles or gets hurt with Williams backing up the right side. Plus it would be good for Little to get extra rest from those concussions...  Daley and Little on the left should be our long term plan though. With Larsen having experience, we have solid depth on the o-line finally. Hopefully with continue to develop and draft defensive and offensive linemen.

Better.

Isn't it amazing how everyone on this forum after week 2 was clamoring for us to invest a ton of resources to upgrade our line, either devoting most of the next draft, trading for Trent Williams, etc, etc, while complaining that the organization has consistently failed to address the line for years and Matsko has lost his touch. Now suddenly, with all the same players, we're openly debating which of our well-performing linemen we're going to have to relegate to the bench. Goes to show we could probably stand to dial back our reactionary tendencies a touch and show some patience, right guys?

    • When we drafted Luke, we already had Cam, Smith, Olsen, Stewart, Deangleo, Gross, Kalil, CJ, Hardy, Beason, TD, Gamble (and maybe more I'm forgetting), we had a lot of great pieces in place. Going pure BPA for a player with Luke's potential when the LB you already have is different when you already have all those pieces in place.  Our OL right now is probably in a better shape than that team and our RBs and TE have potential compared to proven vets back then, but after that, the 2012 roster was in a far better shape than we are right now. We need a #1 WR, DEs, LBs, DBs, C, and depending who you ask a QB.  Going BPA at pick #5 when that player is a DT and your current best player on either side of the ball is a DT, seems irresponsible. If he's the only player they like that high left, then you trade back and go with position of more need at a slot that makes sense for the player while adding other picks.  If you trade back and he falls because other teams don't need/want a DT, then you consider him at that point because of the value.    
    • This sounds like the same back and forth when we drafted a LB when we already had a LB or as mentioned prior back to back DLs. I want the BPA, if it is another DT so be it. (No not a kicker/punter for those people that think they are funny))
    • I’m hoping SMU messes it all up and wins out. Imagine the SEC & BI0 would crap themselves trying to “fix” the problem.
