Could Cordy Glenn really start off season on 2nd string?


Recommended Posts

Sure you do... in the NBA.

I'd love to see a 6-8 lineman try to guard an NBA PG. Can you see Cordy Glenn closing out on Steph Curry as he sidesteps and launches a corner three? I can just imagine the aftermath on the sideline. It would redefine the experience of front row seating!

Its all about competition with this staff. They are a long way from determining a starting 5. BTW, this was something missing from the Marrone regime. You were either on the inside looking out or the outside looking in. A big problem when you are developing and attempting to improve players. They need to believe they have a chance, and it makes everyone better.

Both Roman and Rex have said you can't really tell much of anything that really matters until they get pads on. It's great that both of them are looking good. Remember how good Henderson looked even in preseason games last year at LT? And then got killed in the regular season. Both Kujo and Henderson are big athletic guys. If they are in good shape and determined to do well and got their heads in the new playbook and picked up the new techniques quickly, they will be singled out for doing well. But it's still not really blocking NFL starters.

:thumbsup: Glenn is a proven commodity. He had a bit of a down year last season compared to the previous, but he is still a very good LT. To move him to the bench would be flat out stupid as he is our best OL'man. Don't see it happening. I hope we can get him signed to an extension also, but we will have to work some things out with the cap first.

If Kojo pans out (which so far, things are looking much better than last year), then I suspect Henderson may end up at guard. That would be one big bad o-line.

Nobody that talk is playing Guard.

Nobody that tall is playing Guard. Pears?

I'm thinking they're getting Seantrel ready to be a swing tackle. Maybe Glenn and Henderson start but if one of them gets hurt Kujo comes in as RT and the other plays LT. Plus if we're not able to sign Glenn we have someone who can step in the following year.

 

I also thought it was interesting that Marrone thought "Henderson consistently performed the best of all of the teams offensive linemen last season.". I don't remember that being talked about here, didn't PFF rate him pretty low?

Last year they were putting an extra TE beside Henderson because he couldn't do it on his own.

Wood could be the odd man out.

 

Kujo - Miller - Incognito - Glenn - Henderson

 

Kouandjio is not nor ever will be a LT in the NFL. No matter how much work does in the off-season, it won't remove the fact he's not agile enough to handle the quicker pass rushers.

 

As to Cordy, well, it's a contract year. If anyone thinks that doesn't factor so much into personnel decisions, think again. It could also be this staff's attempt to motivate him.

 

At this point, everything is conjecture and symbolism over substance.

Disregarding the Glenn angle, it would be fantastic if it turns out that both Henderson and CK become top NFL talents this season. More likely however, the Bills and Roman "loving what they are seeing" translates to "They are not going to be busts! They should contribute in a positive way this season."

Totally agree with this. Kujo has a shot on the right side and Henderson can come in as a swing tackle without a huge drop-off.
