Stephon Heyer is RT. He will not play LT. Heyer needs to work on strength and fundamentals in the offseason. He is essentially unbeatable when he bends his knees and positions his hands correctly, but he keeps wanting to stand tall. Heyer is working hard on this. Cerrato essentially said that if he improves enough, the RT job is his.

First of all, great recap BHA, thanks for doing that. I think people need to begin to accept that Heyer is likely to be our starting RT on opening day. I don't get the sense that we are looking to draft a tackle, put him on the right side and then convert him to a LT down the road (Smith, Oher, etc.). If anything we're going to draft a RT or interior lineman in the 3rd round.

Also since OLB was our top priority last year and we didn't get one AND cut our starting OLB this year, what do you think the focus will be next month? He's pretty much putting it out there to expect us to go OLB at #13.

No talk about Campbell and the lack of an extension?
