I highly doubt whoever they sign would be to start over Ford. They need another backup OT. Right now they only have Bates. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLFan Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) Ty is done for the year and he very well knew it when they took him off the field. You could see it in his face. Our depth at Tackle was always a question going into the year and unfortunately the worst has happened. Ford will be fine and Bates is questionable at best, but he is now the man. It will be very hard (impossible ?) though to find someone capable who can learn the offense and play with 6 weeks to go. They are really looking for a backup to Bates at this point. As for Henderson, no thanks. He has had plenty of chances here and he is unlikely to get one more from this management team.

I thought we had adequate tackle depth going into TC. Losing Waddle and Ty is rough, but hardly the worst that could happen (thats losing Dawkins). I think they can find someone that can learn the system and be better than Bates for 6 weeks. We need a back up not a starter so he hopefully shouldnt have to play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 They must not be real thrilled at what they've seen from the two OL on their practice squad. But then again, Tuesdays are the day where teams across the league hold tryouts so this is probably business as usual with a focus on OT's due to Nsekhe's injury.

atlbillsfan1975 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 May just be doing due diligence or might mean they don’t think Bates can handle the swing tackle spot. Let’s see who they fill Nsekhe’s spot with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is week 12, deep into November. You're looking to fill a 3rd string depth RT. You are not getting anyone better than Seantrel, especially since you are NOT looking for a starter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope McD keeps an open mind about Henderson and walks away from the Carolina bargain rack that he is so enamored with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I wouldn’t be against at least giving Henderson a workout. That illness really hit him hard and he flashed at times. If I remember it was Chrohns, and that is a terrible condition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came in during the Titans game and he held his own fine - the offensive drive that finished the game had back ups all along the right side of the line, including Bates, and was one of the few games this year where our offense put the game away late. We have depth in Bates behind Ford, but doesn't hurt to do due diligence in finding further depth in case anyone else goes down. Even though he's also a rookie with little game experience, I wouldn't sleep on Bates as depth at the very least. He apparently saw reps in the Washington game as well...would have to re-watch that one to see. Edited November 20, 2019 by ctk232 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
