Wouldnt' strength be a concern for a LT? Maybe not so much against 3-4 defenses but i'd imagine it would be a concern when playing against defensive ends.
Strength is more of an issue at RT - not left where quickness and athleticism is essential protecting against top rushers...think Mark Tunei vs. Eric Williams...even though Williams went against Reggie White a lot, he was never considered a good candidate for LT to protect Aikman's blind side...Larry Allen was probably the exception to this rule since he was a freak of nature that was both insanely strong AND incredibly athletic (could dunk a basketball).
