Welcome to the team, Jonah Williams!

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.

Any rookie can struggle, but a lot of rookies struggle because of the gap in competition from college to pro. Others like Williams have been challenged from day one on college playing in the SEC who produces NFL DL at record numbers.

I think Williams can and will start day one if healthy, it may be RT which is fine, but based on Taylor comments, I think he may also try him at LT and move Glenn to RT. Will he make mistakes? Of course, every rookie makes mistakes. But so do vets.
