Bingo. This is the way I see it. Jacoby was amazing in his prime, and he lasted a while. Truely a beast. Maybe if Lachey lasted longer he would win this debate, but he didn't.

Re: Redskins Best Ever series: OFFENSIVE TACKLE

I don't remember Turk Edwards so i will speak for my generation.

1- Lachey and Jacoby tied for 1st with a slight edge to Jacoby being that he was FA and played his whole career for the Skins.

The worst and I can't believe he's on the list is George Starke, he was the king of holding penalties. He got better when Grimm, May and Bostic showed up.

LOL . I do remember as a kid hearing " holding number 74 " a few times, ... drive killer . He did however improve and become a guy I liked as a Skin during the 80's SUPER BOWL CHAMPION WASHINGTON REDSKINS !!!

Re: Redskins Best Ever series: OFFENSIVE TACKLE

Over the years we have been very blessed at the Tackle position. If I pick one it's Jake.

1 - Joe Jacoby: Started in all 3 SBs. All-Decade 1980s. 4 Consecutive Pro Bowls, 2 1st Team All-Pros. One of he first 300+ pounders who was also athletic. Could maul in the run game and was excellent in pass-pro.

2 - Turk Edwards: Started in 2 NFL Championships for the Skins. All Decade 1930s, All NFL 1932-39. Member of HoF.

3 - Jim Lachey: Started in 1 SB. 3 Pro Bowls, 3 1st Team All-Pros as a Skin. Technique second to none. Probably better than Jacoby in pass-pro.

As far as the DCPSR List so far, IMO should be: Green, Ken Houston, Olkewicz, Hanburger, Mann, Butz.
