YoloinOhio Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 He doesn't have the feet to play Tackle. Originally drafted at 11 to play RT. What is it with Bama OL? @BFTB_Chargers: SOURCES: Chargers will move D.J.

thebandit27 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 No shocker there...he was never going to be a great OT. The interesting question now is what they do about the OT positions given that Fluker is moving and King Dunlap is an UFA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 3, 2015 Author Share Posted January 3, 2015 I assume Fluker will not be happy as it will affect his value at FA time. Which makes me wonder if Glenn will be PO'd about that as well if they move him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Good question, although I'm not convinced it's as big an issue as we may assume. I cite guys like Rodger Saffold and Austin Howard. The former had been moved to guard, and signed as a UFA for LT $$ (although that contract was voided when he failed the physical), and the latter went from RT to OG after signing a FA deal for RT $$. Of course, that doesn't mean anything for either Fluker or Glenn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Frank Reich can't devop O-Lineman!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even at Bama, Fluker struggled with pass protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Which makes me wonder if Glenn will be PO'd about that as well if they move him He has no one to blame but himself, if that's the case. IMO, he played way too heavy this year, likely due to the preseason health problem. If he wants to stay outside he better have a heck of an offseason training regimen...
