I'm worried about being so light on OT's. I get that Boone can swing out to tackle (his natural spot) but when he does that, it means one injury changes 2/5ths of the alignment, where as having a back-up tackle would be 1/5th change.

Been my worry from the very beginning...guess Person wasn't the answer; thought we'd pick up a veteran T at least once they decided Boone was the best option at RG over Davis. Scary...same with OLB where all three guys have been injured at some point already.

I would have had Boone compete with Staley/Davis and may the best man win and with that move, you'd have a VERY good swing T ready to go if one goes down. Then a guy like Slowey could have made the roster behind a starter in veteran starter in Davis with Kigore/Looney/Slowey ready to roll if needed. No changes in positioning on the OL (chemistry) is CRITICAL esp. for an OL already suspect at pass protection. One injury now changes 2/5th of the line.

So let's assume that they move L. Davis in to start at RG, making Boone the swing tackle. Does that make everyone's concerns go away?

Remember last year, when they had Snyder starting at Center all preseason? Boone's better than Snyder, but not sure they're ready to start him at RG in real games.

Maiocco said in one of his article, believe Owusu to SD one, that Beeler might be heading to Philly's PS.
