Actually, you have a good point.  For some reason, I thought that Redmond had been around longer than he has.  I did notice that when he wasn't false starting, or getting flagged for holding, he did have some good plays.  There is potential, I just hope the carousel of coaches hasn't thwarted his development.  He seemed to get good push in run blocking, but really struggled with pass protection.

I think what tends to get him in pass pro, is the slide step back, and "catch who's coming".  He seems powerful, when he's the one to initiate contact.  Perhaps Turner will allow them to punch, and then maintain contact, while only giving ground to avoid getting beaten?
