Although I would love to have Anthony Davis start day 1, is he ready?? Joe Staley was plugged in from the get his rookie year at RT and did fantastic. If we drafted Staley later than Davis, why cant AD ball the way Joe did?? and how about Barry Sims? If i remember correctly.. Snyder struggled last season and Sims played great while replacing Staley at LT..
IIRC, Staley gave up 6 sacks in his rookie year, didn't he? And then in his 2008 campaign, he gave up 9 sacks. Maybe his 2008 numbers could be due to Martz, but still quite high nonetheless.
By comparison, Adam Snyder gave up 10 sacks last year.
I believe Staley was ok in his rookie year, but he was inconsistent.
