Hobson said he thinks Miller and Glenn will start at guard with Hart at RT and that Clint could come off the bench as a utility man which I cant see considering how much their paying him. I 'll post what Hobson said below.
"Glenn was a guard in college and he hasn’t been on the right side ever in the NFL. He’s a better left guard than right tackle. As we know, the coaches have a higher opinion of Hart than the fans. They believe he’s one of the five best. John Miller is the starting right guard. That looks set in stone. With incumbent left guard Clint Boling not practicing until training camp, he may be looking at a valuable utility role since he can play potentially all five spots, but he can for sure play both guards and tackles. Of course, things change and Seattle is still 107 days away. But that seems to be the rough draft. "
Have to keep Boling even if he is a utility backup, we need depth.
Also, would have to see a huge improvement from Hart to beat out Boling at RT IMO.

Some say Boling is paid too much to be a backup, but not really when you consider he would be the 1st option in at all 5 spots....
Sounds like the plan even if Boling played better then Glenn last year, Glenn is healthy right now and he is bigger. Just wish Glenn would play with a meaner mentality, he was playing soft last year, hope Turner can get some nasty out of him. Doesn't matter how big you are if you play like a cupcake out there.
