I think he's got enough athleticism at his size to be effective in the phonebooth in Haley's scheme, but not on the edge.

Maybe it's the fear of irony that prevents people from seeing this - that we've given the Raiders so much shit for moving Gallery over, that people around here have called Leonard Davis a bust because he ended up being a Pro Bowl guard instead of a tackle.

But I'll tell you what - I'd rather have an All-Pro guard than a turnstile LT.

Unfortunately for your argument, he was not a "turnstile LT", not for most of the second half of the year.
