Dragonborn10 Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 CK is fine at LT. Maybe the knee injury and inability to play on the right side is real. Regardless he has played well enough for me to move Glenn to RT and leave CK at LT. Mills would be perfectly fine coming back as a swing tackle but he may want starting RT money. I find it unlikely but teams overpay all the time. Glenn is already paid so he should not care which position he is playing.
Beef Jerky Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 No... CK isn't fine, we don't play the Browns ever week.

My view is your best OT plays LT but that is to protect the blindside of the QB in the pocket..... if you are sticking with TT who doesn't really play from the pocket it might be worth considering.
Reed83HOF Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Why would you put your best tackle on the right side (besides having a lefty for a QB)?
John from Riverside Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Or maybe we just find a better RT?
BuffalothruMyVeins Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 I wouldn't be outraged if this happened, but it wouldn't happen, I don't think.
TSOL Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Can we please not have a 12 mil/yr right tackle
Johnny Hammersticks Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Or maybe they just try Kujo at RT again? CK is disabled. He can't shuffle his feet to his right. Orthopedic issue.
Doc Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 CK is disabled. He can't shuffle his feet to his right. Orthopedic issue. That's the theory. Need to see it proven definitively on the field and that he hasn't just improved as an OT.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 If Mills is starting next year, that says something about how much we've improved.
Dragonborn10 Posted December 18, 2016 Author Posted December 18, 2016 You guys live in a by gone era. The difference between LT and RT is meaningless in protection and how defenses attack. Defenses attack the weakest part of the line and move their pass rushers around. Mills is a capable run blocker but awful as a pass protector. CK has played well enough this year to consider the move permanent. Just put your best five on the field. So what if the RT is well paid. CK and Miller are on rookie deals and the rest of the line is under contract.
MarkyMannn Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 CK has played well enough this year to consider the move permanent. Just put your best five on the field. He's got 5 starts in 3 years. Not really proven anything. And if he was that solid a player, he would have been on the field
thebandit27 Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 There's no reason not to move Cordy to RT if he can handle it. The only reason he wouldn't move is because he wants to get paid like a LT, which he's already done. If it gets your best 5 on the field, do it.
San-O Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Can we please not have a 12 mil/yr right tackle LOL : ) + 1
gjv001 Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 CK has shown he can play LT at a high level. Moving Glenn to RT would put the 5 best Bills Olinemen on the field. Let Pegula worry about how much he is paying for a RT. As a fan I want the best Oline possible.
MarkyMannn Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 CK has shown he can play LT at a high level. Tell us when that was in his 5 starts in 3 years
Big Turk Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 My view is your best OT plays LT but that is to protect the blindside of the QB in the pocket..... if you are sticking with TT who doesn't really play from the pocket it might be worth considering. it seems half of the sacks Tyrod takes are from having to run away because Mills guy beats him so fast often times Tyrod is in scramble mode really quickly
billieve420 Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 Mills is terrible upgrade at RT is needed either via FA or draft.
