I can apply if's to a lot of OL's. For some reason, they do not want to flip Williams and Collins and I hope it's not because Booger promised Collins he'd be a T because I heard he doesn't want to play G.

If Big Smitty's back worsens, this is going to be a real cluster. Although, if his back is really flaring up and the DE's know that, could it be much worse sliding Williams over? Facing DE's with his athleticism might be easier than 330lb DT's.
I agree but the bigger point is we have more talent than most teams on OL.

While we have some immediate concerns I don’t view it as a weakness we should be investing more high picks in the draft.

Now whether we’re utilizing everyone at their best position is a more interesting discussion.

I’d like to see Collins back at LG too. And maybe Connor isn’t ready to start yet. I wouldn’t mind seeing Fleming at RT.
I just don't know enough about Fleming...but whoever is the better of him or Connor is who I'd want starting at RT.

This OL isn’t what it was in 2014 or 2016.

And the loss of Frederick and Smiths injuries which appear to have a lasting effect coupled with our Rookie LG Connors struggles and Collins at RT.

No doubt there are effects.

But if Travis returns ,Connor develops and Collins adjust to position we actually are still loaded in talent on OL.

This OL never recovered from Leary and Free.
