Offensive Line in 2018

With the assumed signing of Traore, who comprises the starting offensive line in 2018, assuming Clapp, Brumfield and Weathersby return?

Probably Traore at LT, Brumfield LG, Clapp C, Ingram/Lewis/ Saadiq battle for RG, and weathersby/Saadiq battle at RT.
If weathersby leaves, then I assume you see who the best pass blocker is between Diq and Traore and put them at LT with the other at RT.

Deculus will back up any RT we have I’m sure. Charles and Traore will be the starting OT’s.

Who knows? but it's a great problem to have. Assuming everyone draft eligible stays, here what you have
LT - Charles (who looked damn good with the move to LT) and Traore
RT - Weathersby, Magee (Who I thought was the best backup for Weathersby this year) and Deculus
and at both guard spots you have Brum and Ingram, Lewis, Campbell, Cush, and some others.
Honestly, I don't see anyone losing their spot. If we lose Clapp, insert Cush. If we lose Weathersby, insert Magee, Deculus, or Traore.
Our depth will be pretty good though. I like the JUCO additions.

I feel very good about our offensive line next season.

I do to. this year was very encouraging. no matter what has been said of grimes I give him credit for coaching those freshmen up. and for bringing them on board. I think grimes got a bad rap under miles because pass blocking was poor; there could be plenty of reasons for that but I have a feeling it wasn't worked on much.

Clapp gone for all the same reasons as Guice

I disagree. Clapp's family is not in the same financial position as the Guice family. I have reason to believe Clapp's mother will put a lot pressure on him to get his degree before leaving but I don't know how close he is to doing that. The quote presented to me a few weeks ago was "He's not going anywhere until he is carrying a degree in his hand..."

Clapp graduates next week. Remember he is a 4th year JR. Not saying he is coming out but he will have the paper in hand
