I just saw Calloway once. And I am by no means an OT guru. But I am just thinking if a college OT is running second string, we probably should pass with a draft pick.

Calloway isn't running 2nd string. He's started every game except for UNI (suspended due to DUI on a MOPED

). He also started every game last year.

The problem is that Bulaga has been hurt/sick all season and his replacement at LEFT tackle is playing as good, if not better, than everybody else on the line. You can't just put him back on the bench now when Bulaga comes back.

I think I am following you, but you said something about Richardson going back to the bench under this scenario.

Richardson is playing guard right now. He was supposed to play tackle but he's kinda soft and he's never realized his 5* potential. I could see them moving one of the right tackles inside and moving Richardson to the bench.

OK, I understand now. Thanks!
