When he was at Auburn, he was a road grading LT but lacked some in pass protection. Nearly everyone thought he'd become an elite franchise LT.
In four years, he's been a bad starting LT for the Rams and Lions, but the more I think about it....would he fit at RT?
He has incredible length and size just like Andre Smith did, and he can (or at least could) move people off the ball in the run game. His style of play I think would fit Pollack's scheme.

Maybe he could be a flier pick to compete with Bobby Hart for the backup RT spot?

Look at it this way.  If Jon friggin Gruden doesn't want him on his team, why should we?  I see selfish, prima dona personality, the type of thing this offense doesn't need to deal with.

You know, pretty much the antithesis of Marvin Lewis.

Still remember that Halloween CBS Football Sunday special where Chucky opened up and started talking about his twin.

A little strangulation to get the circulation going ha ha
