Heard a replay of an interview from last week in which he choose his words very carefully regarding the current and future LT spot and the OL in general.
He acknowledged that Whitworth is the short term answer but can have a long term effect "with a guy like Roger Saffold who is in his prime and can learn how to play LT from a real pro like Whitworth..."
He went on to say that AW is an immediate big upgrade from last year and when asked about the rest of the OL he stammered like he always does (drives my nuts) and said "our OL coach said he wanted to see what he has in house because the draft class was not deep...and he wants a crack at making the in house group better..."
I found it odd that for as long as the interview was he only mentioned Saffold by name and seemed to indicate he was the one being groomed to play LT down the road.
R.I.P. Nelson aka TonyHunter87 1971 - 2017 far too soon..
Your last words to me: "Your a great guy RFIP. I was very sad when you left the board, and your son, but was glad to see you back. Take care my friend, may God be by your side." 09/09/2017 12:58AM
No Nelson, you were a far better man than I, and I am sure an awesome husband and father as well. I will miss you my friend. -RFIP
