Let talk Tackles

While Hart looked better later in the season that coincided with the offense changing both to run more and we started seeing Sample lined up inline at TE on Hart's side a lot. Having Tackles who cannot play on an island is forcing us to keep the TE and sometimes the RB as well in to block.

Now Jonah can play on an island at least for pass protection. Maybe the right move is to get a legit RT who does not need TE or RB help all the time and kick Hart inside to Guard?

Naw, how many more years are we going to keep making excuses for Bobby Hart?  The "he's young" line has run it's course, as he's a vested veteran, and still standing there looking stupid, blocking air, when rushers take the inside path.

As for Jonah Williams?  I'm not sold, he's injury prone, and average when he's healthy.  Move him into Guard, let him get healthy, he can kick out to Tackle when called upon.  This team needs a pair of Tackles, draft Sewell and sign a bona fide RT.  Re-sign Spain to bridge the gap while the man they draft, develops.
