If or when Samuels shows he's just able to protect against top-notch DEs anymore -- which I don't think is the case just yet -- that sounds like an interesting option.

I love the idea of Sameuels at RT, especially with Jansen beside him at G. Jansen's problems now arent't run blocking (notice how much better we run right when he's in) it's in the passing game. I don't know if it's injury or age, but it seems he's just not lateral enough anymore to play RT. Rabach is serviceable (though Vic Carucci and Gil Brandt both think he is deserving of being in the Pro Bowl) and Kendall should be fine for another year until Reinhart can take over. If we can trade up for Eugene Moore it would be a great line. If not draft a 3rd round LT and bring in a UFA that can hold the spot for 2-3 seasons.
Fabini and Heyer are decent backups.
