Welcome to the team, Jonah Williams!

His dominance and experience at that position makes him the most NFL-ready. But when I said try him at LT and Glenn at RT, I meant in OTAs and/or at the start of TC. If it doesn't work out after a couple weeks, flip him to RT. Jonah Williams is not some project that's going to need a lot of time to get up to speed to handle blocking in the NFL.

I get all that and you make a compelling case. It's just that rookie LT's generally struggle.

I'd rather ease him into the NFL as a RT and get some success under his belt.

I think that pushing him into a LT role could stunt his development.

Remember, people thought Robert Gallery was a can't miss Tackle too. Better to put these guys in positions where they can succeed early and reduce risk of failure.
