I didn't think he would, but I'm leaning more toward that direction now. I haven't been that impressed with Adeniji, and honestly even Richards hasn't been as good as I expected.

Right now, I think we could be Guyton, Smith, Beebe, Booker, Steele, Thomas, Richards, Bass, Hoffman and Cornelius.

Richards has game experience, so I can see him possibly being shopped

I'll be surprised by it. I think the fact that they've used him as a blocking tight end some in practice shows they have a plan for him. But I've been disappointed in his play at tackle and see why they elevated Thomas ahead of him to start if Guyton misses time.

It is possible they could decide to keep the more experienced Adeniji instead of Richards, but I've seen no reason to do that. I think Thomas will become the swing tackle once Guyton returns.

I remember he and Mafah seemed to have Hall of Fame parents.

He had the two pre snap penalties in game one and Schottenheimer called him out specifically in the press conference so he’s on the radar for sure

Looks like Cornelius is a keeper , nice to see a 6th round pick with some upside. Another good value pick,I wish Dallas was as good at picking defensive tackles , they consistently pick good offensive linemen.

Kind of glad Waletzko got hurt. This stupid front office would have kept him over Cornelius.

Richards has regressed. I’ve seen a few roster projections without him on it

I'm hoping the Oregon Duck (Cornelius) develops and can replace Steele next season. I liked him in college.

I am glad to see Ajani Cornelius step it up big time these past 2 preseason games. He has the size, strength and athleticism to really become a very good Oline if he stays focused and determined to keep improving. I liked both T. Booker (1st round) and A. Cornelius (6th round) oline picks this year, and they both are showing they were good picks. Certainly beats the scrap Olinemen we've gotten in previous years.

Yep. Unless he makes a huge leap with the new scheme, this needs to be Steele’s last year.

Who? Richards? Yeah, he's disappointed me because I thought he deserved a shot at starting. I still think he should get a roster spot, though.

I have trouble believing that he won't make the roster, but his play has surprised me. If we view Thomas as the swing tackle, I'm not sure Richards will even be active. I know we'll have Hoffman active as the interior backup. Richards might be the third game-day backup, though, if we view him as a tight end in the heavy sets. Of course, a lineman like Cornelius might can take on that extra blocker role.

Totally agree, Dallas is building an offensive line Booker looked good against the Ravens. Cornelius jumps off of the screen in his Oregon film, he may be the right tackle of the near future. This is a young and talented group, impressive. Cornelius looked good in the Ravens game as well. I would love to see Dallas become a great running team and beat teams like Kansas City, by running the ball.

I allowed myself to believe that richards was something

but once he got more snaps, he simply did not get it done.

But if Corny can do it, then its all good

Are they saying that three rookie O-linemen for the Eagles didn't allow a single pressure?

Those three Eagles rookies are one 5th round pick and two 6ths round picks. They are a center, a guard, and a tackle.

Unreal. They lose a starter for the season and gain three possible future starters.
