Otherwise you are guessing. Most of those guesses will probably be right, but they are still guesses. If you look at an organization like PFF and how they handle their guesses you can see just how unscientific it really is.

I've seen a couple of plays here and there where I question whether the OT had an assignment or perhaps it was a RB or TE.
But those are plays where there are just absolute whiffs, and it looks like there was confusion.
But when a LT engages with a DE or a LB and just gets beat, there are no guesses.
It's right there in front of your eyes.
