On the plus side
-I'm holding on to the fact that Whit got schooled by Freeney in one game in his rookie year but has been great since.
-There was a lot of people saying Ced looked really promising in preseason so some of the raw tools must be there.
On the negative side..
- When Whit faced Freeney he was one of the best edge rushers of his generation and in his prime, and whit was moved from LG...
- I don't remember Whit being as awful as Ced outside of the Freeney matchup
- Ced is not a rookie...i know he barely played his rookie year but he was around the team , had a year of NFL strength work (!!) , and gameday / scheme prep
- The Dallas D Line is not exactly considered to be a massive force, or one of the league's best
- The offense as a whole is struggling so it can't afford to carry / hide a weak RT
- Lot of these highly drafted OT's around the league seem to bust
I will add to your list of negatives. It's not just the Dallas game in which he has looked bad...
