So we have...

Dawkins - Saffold - Morse - ? - Brown

And the question mark could be Ford, Bates, or Boettger?

I'm guessing the plan is for Bates to replace Saffold next year.

 

Draft another G this year and have those four duke it out for the starting 2 jobs next year.

Bates himself stated he considered his natural position is LG.  Saffold is going to be starting at LB and I think he's likely a better run blocker, but hopefully Bates is as effective at RG as he was at LG.


I know some people on this board hate Edmunds but are we really to the point of starting an offensive linemen over him?

Saffold is going from LG to LB.  Wow he is talented.  🤪

 

I think with the OL coach we have now he will love Bates and find ways to increase his skills and find new ways to use him.
