I'm also concerned we'll keep Trey Hill over Matt Lee because he can play guard, while Lee may be more of a Center only player. I want Lee to stick because I think he has more upside, but Hill has survived several years because he was able to slide between guard and center. Maybe they will try Lee at guard and see if he holds up?

Between Carter, Tufele and Bell, I prefer Bell. I haven't really seen anything from Carter in two years that makes me think he is capable of playing at any time in the NFL. I remember at the end of his rookie season, it looked like maybe he would develop into a good run stopper, but then in his sophomore season, his snaps were just...terrible all around. Tufele hasn't been much better to my eye either.
Maybe Bell is just a pre season flash in the pan, but I liked that I actually saw hustle out of him. We'll see how the next 2 games go, but if Bell keeps disrupting the backfield and Carter and Tufele continue to do nothing, I'd hope we keep Bell over them.
Completely agree on all points CrazyJDawg. Hope they keep Matt Lee over Trey Hill and Travis Bell over Carter and Tufele. I liked Tufele
when we initially got him but he was bad last year when we needed him to step up, Carter has always been bad except like a couple plays.
Travis Bell is a thick DT with hustle to him, doesn't look fun to block which I like that in my DL.
