He'd be fine on flags in the regular season to but/for bullshit.

I'd be fine trying him at LT and maybe fixing that position for a half-decade to come. But you're gonna get all pissy at the idea of Morris at RT and a rookie RT is going to be every bit as raw as one at LT.

Okay so Humphries, Suamataia, and Taylor competing for LT?

I'm pretty cool with that plan, the math says at least one of them will be able to earn it

I wouldn't even bother with a competition. If Taylor can provide even adequate play give him the ****ing job and be done with it. He's already proven to be stable in performance and able to stay healthy. Don't want to **** around yet again with a vet that already has an injury history longer than a CVS receipt that will almost inevitably miss time.

answers are on the roster. morris has looked the part of a competent RT in spot duty and will be a UFA around the time taylor needs a re-up. if he keeps looking the part when called upon i don't see why you don't take a gamble.

at LT you sign a veteran like humphries and let suamataia earn the spot. probably draft another body as a safety net. worst comes to worst - none of the guys pan out in two years and you got to spend big money but youd be spending that on taylor anyways.

Well, the experiment worked for a while.

Which goes to show why Brett Veach is clearly an inferior GM to Howie Roseman and quite frankly probably a few other GMs. The next good OT he drafts will be the first.

Give it a try with Humphries at LT and move Thuney back inside. Because this clearly isn't working.

Need to just put him in, couldn’t possibly be worse. Don’t even let Caliendo out of the locker room, send him home on a Greyhound bus.

It was always going to be this way, even HOF guards can't moonlight as left tackles for very long... if Will Shields couldn't do it, neither can Thuney

Put him in put Thuney back at guard. Got to do something to give Pat some time

What exactly did you want him to do? Enlighten us all and if your answer is “Just trade up!” then explain to the class why the players we wouldn’t be taking are expendable to what we’ve accomplished in these 3 years

I’ll take our guy. Stop this shit.

5 Super Bowl berths and we’re brutalizing his legacy over one bad LT decision. He made a mistake. He is still the best gm in the league and it’s not particularly close

At least we’re putting the thuney to lt narrative to bed

You ever wonder why we always supposedly hav a talent deficit in these games? Philly is always picking late in the draft too and they’ve built a superior roster
