I know every coach claims open competition, but I just hope ours lives up to it because there is no way in hell MacIntosh beats out Taylor for the RT starting gig.

Herb Taylor is NOT a Right Tackle.
He's too smallish to be effective there.

i disagree. I don't see how he could be any worse than MacIntosh, especially when he seemed to play well at LT last year.

He was under 300 pounds last year and after the conditioning program, I'm guessing he's under 290.

Not...a road grader.

In a spread type offense a road grader RT is not needed nearly as much.

Our offense will be quite a bit more conventional under Haley I think.
And I honestly don't think Taylor's a long-term answer there.
He's just too small. I bet he's 285 right now.

I don't know about Taylor but i don't see how we can conclude that Haley will be more conventional when he gave up on the running game as much as he did with Arizona. If the passing game works and the running game doesn't, Haley is just as likely to go shotgun spread and only use draws and sweeps as he is anything.
