Lack of Tackle Depth!

We heard about Steele's struggles yesterday in the joint practices, this is nothing new. He is what he is, a good run blocker that is maxed out as a poor pass protector. Doesn't mean that cannot succeed with him as a starter, Doug Free had a similar skill set. Good news is that Guyton appears to be having a strong camp, his biggest concern can he stay healthy?

Also have heard that Bass is getting a lot of snaps with the 1's at LG. This could mean that Tyler Smith might be the team's #3 Tackle if they decide to use their 5 best lineman.

Thomas reportedly has taken a step back this season and Shelton needs to get stronger. Haven't heard much about 2nd year tackle Cornellius.

Starting in Zack Martin's rookie season, they had him cheat over towards Doug Free.
-Martin would alignment something like 6 inches over towards Free instead of being evenly split between OC and RT.
- Free could then overset to the outside because there was less space for Edge rushers to cut back inside.
- They could do it because Travis Frederick didn't need help.
- It actually put a big strain on the RG because Frederick couldn't help him as much.

Imagine being an Edge rusher that jumps inside of Steele and gets flattened by Tyler Booker.

I thought everyone knew that when they say he’s doing great that it’s against his own team mates. Doing great against the Rams in the scrimmage means something.

Look man don't get triggered I meant we really can't evaluate him right now because all we can see is him really against backups against the Rams he didn't face Miles Garrett He didn't face any hungry game plan the defense I'm saying great for him that so far he's doing what he's supposed to during practice but when the speed steps up the competitive nature of the game and the game plans and they go after him because they feel like he's the weak point in the line then we'll see how he does consistently not one game we'll just see over what the average is the full season so again don't get triggered I meant what I meant I know what you meant and I still say that my comment holds true...

Still has a lot left to prove..
