Two things are obvious. The coaches have lost faith in Cody Ford and like many of us, they think Williams' future is at G. Brown looked good today, but it was only 1 game. Hopefully he'll be great. I'm still not sold on Boettger,  but as depth, he's fine.


I’m cool with Brown staying at RT but I hope that doesn’t mean Williams stays at G. He’s simply not good playing inside.

He's going to be a dominant tackle. But we have both tackles signed long term. 

 

I'd look to trade Williams asap and let Brown ball out.

 

You need 3 good OTs.  Trading away Williams, unless they get a great offer for him or someone like Tommy Doyle proves to be a good swing tackle, wouldn't be smart.  He's scheduled to make (just) $7.125M in each of the next 2 seasons.

I totally forgot he started at RG. As long as he's playing too at a high level there im fine with it. The line as a whole looked great ,really popped off the screen in the run game

That remains to be seen.  But as a RT, he's definitely worth keeping.

I haven't studied film and I didn't watch the interior line during the game, but I like Brown at right tackle and Williams at right guard.   The way McDermott views it, he's going to play his five best linemen, and I think Brown has shown he's in the top five.   And I think that Williams actually will fit well at guard.   I think he gives the Bills more power at the position, which should help their zone blocking schemes.   Plus, the one thing that has bothered me about Williams at tackle is that he doesn't have that quick first step to the right to cut off the wide rusher.   Brown has it.   Inside, Williams is quick enough to slide right or left to help on the double teams either way.  The question is whether he can pull on the traps and get in position to make some of the seal blocks.

Ive not read the entire thread excuse me if this was mentioned. Should we all be using the Texans as the benchmark on his ability to play and start?... what about against better personnel on other teams?  Maybe maybe not.  There will be an NFL learning curve so is he ready for full time duty? It would be great if he excelled starting moving forward.  Im not sure its a given as some fans would suppose. Only McDermots opinion matters.

So Feliciano is benched too?

Sounds like it. Personally, I never noticed much of a difference between him and Boettger. Both were mediocre. At least Ike is younger and has a better chance to improve.
