Twitter: La'el Collins vs Myles Garrett

Owned.

I would agree, but nobody knows if Cooper will even be decent for us. I'd also like Chaz to be given a shot.

Good looked like a good pick but I'm thinking he is going to be always an injury waiting to happen..

He handled Garrett easily. He should be our RT. Move Cooper to LG.

One running play where he locked onto Garrett and drove him toward the sideline means he should be our RT?

I'm for our best five linemen starting whoever that ends up being. If it's Collins at RT and Cooper at LG, that's fine. If it's Green at RT and Collins at LG, that's fine.

The people that said he couldn't play RT in the NFL either never watched him play, don't know what they're looking at or just assume that's what the team believes and they want to make sure they're a good fan.

Collins is a Pro Bowl RT in the NFL.

Yup I think he would be a great RT but coaches and everyone seem possessed to make him a LG

Oh well
 
I will wait and see who and how the OL vying for the RT position do in OTA's and mini camp.
Then we may have an idea which direction they may go.
Of course it all may not mean anything either.

How what I do know, there will still be a faction that say they know better than the coaches and Collins should play RT...LOL..but who knows, they may be right too.

Myles just went #1 overall. Many scouts are projecting him as a perennial pro bowler. He handled him without a double team. But wait...here's more:

Collins isn't yet even a Pro Bowl guard in the NFL.

And that was while playing between an All Pro LT and Center.
 
Dan Skipper will be your OT. La'el is nasty inside, ala Larry Allen. Let's hope. Looking forward to it!
 


Dan Skipper vs. Myles Garrett

(Really, really like him as a run blocker. He was OK against Garrett in pass protection)

It makes the most sense for plan A to be Collins at LG and Green at RT. Green was really good in two starts at LT last season. If if if he can stay healthy, then that's the best lineup.

I don't think plan B or C is to have Collin move to RT with Cooper at LG.

Good teams go though scenario planning. If this, then this.
If Green Healthy (Green, Collins).
If Green not healthy, then how good is Cooper? If Cooper good, then Collins to RT (unless Bell or Cleary magically become really good).
If Cooper marginal, then live with Bell, Cleary or a UDFA at RT.

Collins will have to practice at RT before he can be in the probowl at RT. Until then, it's just fans talking. The way the team were idiots for playing Byron Jones at two positions and also idiots for not doing the same with Collins.

Meanwhile, let's hope Collins gives us the level of play of the guy he's replacing. These homers who keep putting the cart before the horse need to tap the brakes a bit.
