So he'd be bench or move Nicks down which is needless.


Moving Nicks to RT, adding Iupati to guard would be great.

A) It improves the overall starting line performance as well as depth with Stinchy being the first to come off if a guard or tackle went down.

B) Makes us a more physical dominating line.

C) Gives us a little flexibility with Nicks and Evans both looking for big deals VERY shortly.

he's a quality player but

A) You may say Nicks to RT is great. Not great enough last year to do it and let Stinch walk. So at best, it would be an experiment into the unknown

Moving Stinch, an All Pro RT to the bench in the 2nd year of a fresh contract to try out an unproven guy doesn't seem like a great idea to me.

B) more physical perhaps, but that doesn't always equate to more dominating

C) agree on but plugging a front 7 D need would seem to accomplish more than providing future flexibility. Contract crossroads are perpetual. Running back money for '11 will be pivotal.
