Yeah and this is the reason I would not rule out taking a guy in the draft who has the ability to play LT. I think Reiff is better as a RT and Spielman mentioned in a recent interview that Remmers has position flexibility to kick inside to guard. If we can get a guy in the draft like Dion Dawkins or Antontio Garcia who can play left tackle it really shifts the whole dynamic of the offensive line. Count me in as still being concerned if we are starting Reiff (LT) and Remmers (RT) as our bookend's. It's an upgrade over Kalil and Clemmings, but I just don't know that it's a significant upgrade.

I don't know if it's slightly above average yet...but it certainly doesn't get the laughter it once received. I agree with Supa though...an OT in the Draft like Garcia or Dawkins would go a long way towards solidifying the line. We could kick Remmers inside or have Sirles or even Berger (if he doesn't retire) at Right Guard. That would be a fairly formidable line.
Good to see you btw Supa.
