Although I did watch Matthew Bergeron a couple of days ago and I came away impressed.
I was looking for testing and I didn't see that his foot speed looked deficient. Look at guys like Orlando Brown. Footspeed sucks, but he knows how to play the position. I think Volson is really smart and since he played most of his 5 years at RT it might make some sense.
Make no mistake, it was our tackles that lost it for the Bengals last year, not the guards.
