It doesn't matter if you have Tom Brady back there if he's getting his ass kicked on every drop back.
A solid right tackle could be the difference from this team being 4-12 to 8-8.

A 4 win difference?
All a defense would have to do is attack the center or right guard instead of RT. One (average) RT isn't going to be able to block everything to the right of Brian Waters. Which is what is needed at this point. If you've been watching at all this preseason, you'd see that the OLine has serious issues and it's not just RT by any means.
