You aren't disagreeing with me. Alt was great as a rookie as most of us all thought he would be. He was the most pro ready Tackle in the
Draft. I just like Mims upside more because of his size, strength and balance that cannot be taught.
If you disagree with that, fine.
Yes sir.
Alt was more pro ready no question, but upside has to do with raw talent. Mims has the size, athleticism, balance that cannot be taught.
That is why I like Mims upside over Alt's. Alt has fantastic technique though and will probably be an All Pro his entire career.
Mims could be our best Right Tackle since Willie Anderson though. High praise I know.
Well said Jason, Cappa and Pollack did Mims no favors and he still as you say acquitted himself nicely. The tools Mims has are rare and
he is also very smart something you cannot say enough about a young OL.
Spot on... the man is going to be a monster RT for us. With him and Zeus in place, and Ford and Cochran in the wings as backups, who both played well when called upon, we can just focus on guards this year.
