Rippedcity Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Thomas Welch @ LT and Cordy to LG with 1st team. Per Bills official website
thebandit27 Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 hmmm...wonder if they're just experimenting, or they really like Welch...either way, interesting.
Nanker Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 (edited) Makes sense because we all know you must have you're best Offensive Lineman playing at the Left Guard position. You can't win a SuperBowl unless you do. Left Tackle is soooooo over rated. Edited August 7, 2013 by Nanker
26CornerBlitz Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Thomas Welch @ LT and Cordy to LG with 1st team. Per Bills official website Just seeing what Cordy can do with respect to versatility. Cordy is still the LT.
Lt. Dan's Revenge Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Just seeing what Cordy can do with respect to versatility. Cordy is still the LT. This. And/or seeing who can play LT should Glenn go down.
Wayne Cubed Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Thomas Welch @ LT and Cordy to LG with 1st team. Per Bills official website This is training camp, need to see what other players can do.
BADOLBILZ Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 This. And/or seeing who can play LT should Glenn go down. And/or moving Glenn to LG. Always cracks me up reading the first few posts when something unexpected is done. We have no idea what they are thinking. Marrone has had some dominant guards in Brandon Moore and Carl Nix play for him in his NFL past and Glenn has been having some difficulty pass blocking against Pettine's D.
Charles Romes Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Welch is a journeyman on his 7th NFL contract. I can't imagine this is anything more than to see if welch can fill in in an emergency. Maybe also to see if cordy can blow away the middle for short yardage. Could be a referendum on current LG play.
frogger Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 What if...when Hairston returns this is the plan?

Wooderson Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 What if...when Hairston returns this is the plan? Hairston to LT, Glenn to LG. Doesn't sound too crazy.

Maybe also to see if cordy can blow away the middle for short yardage. Could be a referendum on current LG play. If they want to see how Welch plays against first team DL, why not simply put him in with the first stringers? Why also move Glenn to LG? Looks to be more of a continuing concern with LG than anything else.

Looks to be more of a continuing concern with LG than anything else. Maybe it's motivation tactic to the other players attempting to play LG. It certainly would send that message. In the end, we don't know or won't know until after practice.
26CornerBlitz Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 @JoeBuscaglia Cordy Glenn working at 1st team LG. Team trying him out there in practice to be a swing player. Not an official position switch #Bills
mrags Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 hmmm...wonder if they're just experimenting, or they really like Welch...either way, interesting. just experimenting per WGR
Armchair GM Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Thomas Welch @ LT and Cordy to LG with 1st team. Per Bills official website Because it's training camp
thebandit27 Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 @JoeBuscaglia Cordy Glenn working at 1st team LG. Team trying him out there in practice to be a swing player. Not an official position switch #Bills There ya go...still interested to hear Marrone's view of the situation.
mrags Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 What if...when Hairston returns this is the plan? that left side of the line would be absolutely SCARY!!!
BADOLBILZ Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 So, kind of like this? Yes yours was the exception. Not really sure why you felt the need to say nothing at all, but there you go. Fans often choose to ignore things because they don't want to consider the possibility. Gaughan and Graham said the tackle play was awful in the scrimmage the other night. We have been hearing direct from Marrone that the LG spot has been a problem. So by all means, fans should just assume that they are seeing if Welch can handle spot duty at LT. And Nanker should post something strange about it. It's not unlike Buddy Nix telling everyone that they wanted Stevie Johnson playing in the slot and then having it happen in camp 6 months later and be a surprise to many.
