UPDATE: The Jaguars opening day offensive line and second day thoughts

now that is a poll

I’m wondering if it would benefit Monroe to learn from Tra Thomas, but then again, LTs hardly ever need learning time.

Call it BAT. Best Available Tackle out of training camp.

i think thomas will be the LT, monroe will be the RT, and britton will be the RG. after this year, we’ll see Monroe as the LT, britton as the RT, and pashos moved to RG. thomas will be cut.

sounds good to me… a wee bit nervous about having two rookies on the right side this year though…

from Thomas, Pashos, Meester, Manuwai, Britton.
Britton is a little more physical than Monroe and he’s played on the right before in college; and this allows him and Monroe to stay at one position all year then we transition
to Monroe, Pashos, Nwaneri, Manuwai, Britton. (Don’t make both moves at the same time to make the transition more seamless.) That’s one mean and young OL with tons of depth. I like this BAP stuff now, because I know I would have done something differnt in that position.
Then next year we cut Mo Williams and Meester.

Even with T.Thomas (who I’ll be pulling for), the O line still shows lots of age. Collier was one of the young replacements. It compares to Cleveland’s QB situatuion… better to have too much talent than none. Man, I just love the idea of JAX putting together one of the best “O” lines in the league. BIG. Kind of like Dallas of the 70’s. A big, tough line, can make any QB look descent. Something to consider for ’10 and ’11 draft. Hand it to Gene… not sexy, but disciplined.

Load the box now mother f’r!!!

equal yards rec’d = rushed from MJD.
