Top 5 ol as of today, Kroft running routes & Kyle is coaching up the DL

Figured that was the OL given the depth chart.  And Spain screaming doesn't sound good but I guess it is.  And good to see Kyle involved.

I don't love it. I think if Waddle had not gone down, we would have Ty out at RT and Ford at RG. I guess they feel like they need Ty as the swing. 

 

It might be more of the amount of time Ty missed.

Interesting that Feliciano appears to have beaten out Long.  I thought his signing was kind of an afterthought but he plays with a real mean streak and I’ve been impressed.

Beast. prefer him over Long. Long is nice as interior back up

I wonder about Nsekhe's knee condition and if that doesnt factor in some to him not being the current starter at RT. Wonder if we'll hear at some point he needs a clean up type surgery. Pure speculation but he went from a given at RT every day to sporadic  since the Carolina scrimmages.

I think the loss of Waddle definitely played a part in this. One would think that if he was still around as the swing tackle, then Nsekhe would start at RT.

On the other hand, it's hard to say. Ford only got moved to RG in camp because there were so many injuries at that position and because they wanted him to see some live bullets from that spot. It's quite possible that they've planned to keep him at starting RT all along.

I can only imagine that it's a "you're the right tackle until you show that you can't be" situation. If he struggles, one would think Nsekhe gets moved to that spot.

I was thinking this as well.  Perhaps an indication of their lack of trust in Conor McDermott as the swing OT.  I don’t expect McDermott to be on the roster for long.
