He addresses the Marvn Lewis situation stating basically what we hear, which is that Mikey Brown doesn't fire coaches.
But what caught my attention most was the part of about Whitworth and Oggieboggie boy. Mentions that Og has only played one game at LT and just forgets to mention the 11 games he completely sucked at RT.
Then we get the possibility of Whit at LG, which Whit has already said he wants to play LT. Hopspin then covers what position to use the #8 pick on (assuming that position in the draft holds) that he'd love a pass rusher at that spot. Goes on to say, "It would be a great spot to get something they really need and really tough if they have to go tackle again just two years after picking two in the top two rounds."
The only reason it would be tough is because they'd have to admit Og was a bad pick, but at least there's an awareness that Og just isn't making it. Still, I can also see the wheels turning in their heads on somehow getting by with Og anyways.
So far, Oggieboggie's play is so bad that he wouldn't even be a backup on many teams, or if he were, fans, QBs and RBs would cringe if he had to come in and play. Newhouse played better here as a backup and we cut him.
The fact that the OL was so bad and cost us games doesn't quite seem to register fully with those making draft decisions.
