Let's Talk Levi Jones and Offensive Line

[tryfuhl]

too bad MW can't play left tackle

maybe I wasn't watching close enough but EW looked alright to me, but then again when Rinehart looked like he was getting it they replaced him too.. only to do it again

I wonder how much Zorn consults with Bugel about who should be starting

Redskins Insider - Mike Williams may replace Edwin Williams

Let MW replace EW so he can replace CR.

Big Mike can't actually play the tackle position. But Guard is something he can handle.

I know they want to get a look at a bunch of different guys, but I also have no idea what the heck they are doing on the OL. Mike Williams is 29, he'll be 30 next year, and he's just not that good.

I think Bruce Allen sees that elephant in the room that Vinny couldnt see...and I think Danny Boy does as well has already taken the check book out and is ready to start writing....My ideal Oline next year:

Marcus McNeil (LT), Dock (LG), Jeff Byers (Rookie) (C), Jahri Evans (LG), Trent Williams (Rookie) (RT).

Bench: Reinhart, Heyer, E. Williams, Levi Jones

New check cashers McNeil and Evans would be significant upgrades at their positions. Evans may be tough to pry away from Saints. Byers would be a nice grab in 4th round and is probably the most talented Center in the draft getting rid of hold over from the Gibbs era Rabach...I think Russell Okung probably gone by the 3rd pick so Trent Williams at his natural RT position would be a fit for us.

Anybody else gotta better Oline ideas? Post it

i like that scenario, except why not Williams a starter at center? at least he would have one season under his belt. i was hoping he would play some center, so the skins would know if they have something

I just think if Skins are going to commit to a Center pick they do so with the understanding he is talented enough to start. They got Williams and went ahead and developed him with some Guard experience which is great cause of roster value. Hell, Beyers may show that ability as well. I mos def think Williams and Beyers would battle it out for that position, think USC rookie is just better.

imo you dont take a natural right tackle in the top 5 picks. if you want williams, trade down and get him in the 10-15 range, which to me is still high for a right tackle, but not nearly as much of a reach.

I would agree with that. Yeah a trade down would be ideal. Bradford, Berry, maybe even McKoy or the wide out from Ok State could be on someone rader for a trade to our position. It would be mighty damn fine to pick up an extra 2nd round pick.

How did Levi Jones play?

[diehardskin2982]

Why did they play Will Montgomery, and not Edwin Williams who has shown that he is a better player

Williams was inactive. The team is deathly afraid of having Rabach injured and having to put in a center that doesn't know the line calls. They are much happier with a center who consistently makes the wrong line calls.

[diehardskin2982]

he has played some time at gaurd though correct? He has expierence in the game, so I find very dumb to not dress him

[Landry44]

He's not the solution for this team. I think we should keep him just because he has experience. But we still have to address the LT position.
