Martin or Collins make a better Right Tackle?

[Awakened]

Let's say Free doesn't recover from his surgery, or let's just look a couple of years down the road. Who is better suited to play right tackle? Zach Martin or La'el Collins?

Set aside wanting Martin to stay at right guard. The question is who would be better at right tackle?

 

[Wood]

I think Collins has little Eric Williams in him. I think he starts at LG this year then moves over to RT next year.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

I would say Collins. Martin is more athletic and technique-sound; but I want my tackles to be big, mean, maulers. That's Collins all the way.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

We are so stacked.

 

[KingintheNorth]

Collins has slightly longer arms and bigger mitts, I think he'd be the better RT, but I don't doubt for one second that Martin would be fine at RT.

Martin was so dominant at guard I don't want to move him. He gets to the second level like nothing.

I'm not sure who would be better suited for right tackle... but I wouldn't change the position of our second year player who made first team all-pro at the guard position as a rookie. Let him stay at right guard and let Collins and Free battle for the starting right tackle position.

 

[The Quest for Six]

neither, Both are all pro type Guards in the NFL, why would anyone move them to tackle..

 

[phildadon86]

Chaz Green? Or draft a Tackle. I want these 2 guys on the interior making holes

 

[Hardline]

When will some of you get it in your heads that Martin will never be moved to tackle?

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Let's wait and see if Chaz Green has anything. Today in practice not so much.

And wasn't he a right tackle in college

So was Zack Martin. 4 year starter at Left Tackle.

Collins was the starting LG his sophomore year. Moved to LT after that.

Collins or Green.

 

[NEODOG]

Green played RT since HS...... his natural position. He will become that anchor at RT

 

[btcutter]

Martin will be better at the beginning because he's probably a more sound technician. But after Collins gets the footwork down he will be better because he is a more physical specimen with .

 

[Hoov]

Left tackle

Thanks. Could not remember.

Agreed. Larry Allen made quite a career at the guard position.
