O-Line Starting 5 Predictions

[LWSVOL]

The small hole in our 10 win dreams may have a DE crashing through it. I do hope Debord at least schemes for our issues better.

anyone expecting 10 wins are setting themselves up for disappointment.. IMO

No one should be expecting 10 wins. That's just silliness.

 

[TNinOR]

I don't see Blair making it on the field.

Here's hoping he finally has his act together and will prove a lot of us wrong this fall. That would be a very pleasant and much needed surprise, indeed -- as opposed to the sort of surprises we've gotten in that last few days.

 

[Biopsyman]

LT Kerbyson
LG Jackson
C Crowder
RG Robertson
RT Kendrick/Blair/Richmond (IMO RT will be an interesting battle in fall camp. I believe Kendrick will ultimately be the starter on September 5th)

Hoping in 2016 it looks like this

LT Richmond
LG Wiseman/ Sanders
C Thomas
RG Robertson
RT Kendrick

Let's work in jJones and Richmond into significant playing time by mid season. Both should be starters in 2016.

I think if someone would step up and take LT, Kerbyson would move to RG and they would insert Robertson at center. I think they would like to see that happen or Thomas prove he could handle center.. they would like more physicality at that position.

That would be optimal. Get Kerbyson as far away from LT as possible, get stronger up the middle. Are there any legit candidates for the LT position other than maybe Richmond who likely needs a year in the weight room?

There are a handful. That being said, if we're poised to take a big step forward like many believe we are, 9-3 is very possible and not unrealistic at all IMHO.

Agreed.. He was played very bad last year at that position and that is being kind.

I agree. I mean, I think 10 wins is possible, but it would take one of those stars-aligning-every-bounce-goes-our-way-and-nobody-gets-injured kind of years.

apparently not. Richmond is targeted for right tackle is my understanding. They have about given up on Blair. I just don't think they have anyone to push KK.

Outside of Richardson, who was the last dominant tackle we've had?

Was afraid you'd say that. Thank God Dobbs is mobile.

Could Kendrick not play LT just as well as Kerbyson? I thought he looked decent there when he got a shot last year

Definitely more athletic, even though KK looked pretty sick when he hit the whip in that video from the spring 😊

 

[orangebloodgmc]

Kerbyson, Kendrick, Blair, Richmond ...

I trust our coaches will put at LT the one they think will give us the best chance, and get the rest of em as ready as possible.

What is "expecting"? Saying it's probable? Most of us are not doing that.

Saying it could happen? Absolutely.

they like him better at RT. but would like to see him pushed by someone

agree with what your saying.. there are people saying they "expect" 10 wins, some saying more.
