A lot of bit. Go with Colton over Trent? With MM looking as "good" as he looks right now? Letting Trent walk would mean this is a rebuild to me lol.

Yeah if we let Trent walk that's going to be very concerning. We'd most certainly have to go LT in the 1st which means no Wilson or Lance

We would just move Colton to LT, so no need to draft another one.

I will cut you.

If Colton shows promise - why give Williams a huge contract, when we can go cheapo with McKivitz.

LOL. Donald is going to line up against everyone this game and feast. Hopefully Tomlinson and Brunskill can at least replicate past performances against him.

BeatHard better start warming up now. And Josh Johnson, or whomever that ancient QB we got.

I mean he didn't feast last time

Brunskill had a career game against him. But like we saw with Tomlinson, you usually only get one good game against him so I'm expecting this to be far less of a W. Plus Brunskill is still learning the C position too.

He did well against Donald last year as well when he started over Mike Person. For some reason Brunskill plays well against the best DL in the game but struggles against everyone else.

LOL. Let's hope he has another career game.

Lol. So if Mckivitz plays RG with promise, that equates to good for LT?

Everyone knows it's mix and match, easy peezy.
He looked solid today even against Aaron Donald.
I'm glad we are giving him a fair look at the future RG spot.

...in the first half. Donald owned him in the second half. Of course, AD does that to most OL.

McKivitz looked strong in the run game. The timing was off a bit on a few plays but he was adequate. His PP was average considering the quality of the opposition.

We are likely to see more of him whether we like it or not.

Agreed. Let him play rest of year now

This team needs to lock up Trent. Left Tackle is the second most valuable position on offense... we need to shore up that right side though
I didn't focus on him, but I did see him pushed right into Nick Mullens on multiple plays. If those were against AD, the rook gets a pass.

Donald owned McGlinchey. This guy held his own, surprisingly.
Here's to hoping McKivitz sticks at RG, that would help in many ways going forward.
