Go ahead and explain how exactly he is going to play. He isn't moving to guard. Neither are Strief or Armstead. That is clear. CSP made that clear.

You want to trade one of them? Great plan. Let's trade some above average tackles for a middle round pick and draft another (unproven) tackle 13th overall. That would make no sense at all.

Completely idiotic. If it was Scherff or Collins it would make more sense. Those guys can play guard right now, where we have a need. We have no immediate need at tackle. Not worth 13th overall pick. Other needs are more pressing.

will get traded or play back up. It's not that complicated.

he was picked 3 hours ago. Anything Payton says at this point is coach speak.

Strief could get cut, Strief could move to guard, 64 could report as eligible, or Peat could, who knows yet. At worst maybe he sits a season, big deal.


Having 9 picks and a bunch of early picks gives us this luxury. fricking relax.

One would have to think with this pick they are going to move away from Strief this year. Payton isn't going to come out publicly and say that at this point though.

I truly think at the beginning of the season Peat and Armstead are going to be the two starting tackles with Strief pushed into a reserve role.

If you listened to Payton's interview he talked about how after Scherf went off the board so quickly they had to rethink their plan. My take was they were attempting to trade up for Scherf and just couldn't get there in time. So plan B was the next best O.T. available. I'm sure there is a method to the madness.
