yes.

He should replace Nelson next year at LG with Hainsey at RT.

My obscure crystal ball "feels" Hainsey to LT but as to RT ...?

Eye-logic SEEMS to put Tommy inside for Q, but i'm not betting against Kraemer ever. We've heard that Eichenberg is a "natural" tackle, so the foggiest of notions would say:

Hainsey/ Kraemer/ Mustipher/ Lugg/ Eichenberg ... buuuutttt.

I'm under the impression that Eichenberg will be the next LT as Kelly basically said as much. They took him out of the RT battle so he can get set on playing LT. I don't think you are doing that to then move him back to RT and lose an entire year of practicing there.

Bars still has a year of eligibility.

Correct and I think Banks takes RG spot after Bars leaves. The question will be who replaces Mustipher.

Man, what a place to be in where we are worried more about which good players won't get to see the field rather than worrying about a position being shit

Banks and Kraemer would be a pair of bad ass mauling guards. Liam and Hainsey are athletic guys who will protect the edges from speed rushers.

Hadn't noticed him until the two penalties he had the othe night.

As an O linemen, that's usually a good thing

Big Tommy is one of my favorite players so I watch his work on stop-action replay all the time. Despite others' making negative remarks early on this site (apparently without closely watching themselves), I've obnoxiously defended him. The reason: He's plowing people under. He's running guys (as is Hainsey) yards away from the lanes on the more open plays. He OFTEN is smashed down on top of his opponent, pancake side up or not. He has often so mauled his opponent that the guy will ultimately try to punch him.

BTW, that holding penalty on our first drive was EXTREMELY marginal --- a great running block where the @#$% guy turned a little and for a smallest bit of time, Tommy kept his hand on his jersey. Pure crap in my view.

AA? Don't know. Damm good, for sure.
