I just hope that whoever plays best gets the job. Jonah’s $12+ mil is guaranteed and a sunk cost, so should not be a consideration in the decision. That said, I anticipate both Jonah and LC start the season on PUP. The initial camp battle will be between Carman and Ford with Carman being the favorite to win the starting job week 1. Jonah returns before the bye week and potentially becomes the starter at RT unless Carman shines. LC will probably be late season help at best.
I am optimistic that the OL will be improved both in terms of the starters and backup depth. However, given new players and players at new positions, I expect some time together will be needed before the line gels same as last year. How much of an improvement remains to be seen and therefore I am trying to curb my enthusiasm.
