Lance Heard has to be a starter at some point this year on the oline right?

Definitely one of your 5 most talented guys

But a summer enrollee along the offensive line?

He’ll play, no doubt. But it’s going to take an injury or him just outperforming the experienced guys ahead of him

Good problem to have

Probably. But the thought is that he will/May bump E Jones to the inside while he plays RT.

Campbell and Jones took their lumps early and by the end of the year were one of the premier sets of bookends in the nation.

Don’t screw with it.

I’m hoping right end and Jones dominates at guard by 2/3 through season.

Insane him and Will Campbell were on the same highschool football team. That’s some big baws. Put them on the same side and get 3 and a half yards every time.

That's the hope. Now at guard or tackle is the question. If he can end up as a starter a tackle, it could possibly be really good for the line.

I know that long term career wise, he is one of the starting tackles. But I think his quickest way to the field would be taking the guard spot opposite of Delli.

Going to be super interesting how it shakes out between heard, Jones and Campbell.

Great problem to have. Longterm Jones might have to move back inside. He would be a beast inside if he added that weight back.

For coach Kelly, that's a nice problem to have!

Everyone thinking that Jones just kicks inside to make way for Heard this year either forgot Jones is a freshman all American tackle, or believes Heard is the next Orlando Pace.

I don’t remember Campbell struggling much if any. Maybe I forgot, but he seemed consistent to me all year outside of a normal amount of mistakes.
