If it took this long for the coaches to realize he was a natural LT and s**t RT.... well wtf. Same for burford left vs right? Now Forester says hes a starting LT. Maybe trying to drive up our compensation? lol

Various reports said he is more comfortable at LT than RT. Lane Johnson is the opposite and a first-ballot HOF on the right side.

I've definitely been impressed with Moore this year. He's also looked good when filling in at left guard. Some guys are just way more comfortable on one side.

We need to give Moore some love. When Trent couldn't go, it looked like gloom and doom, however, Moore has done very well. I know PFF has some faults but it is useful to see where players rank against each other. When we do that, Moore, adjusted for minimum snaps, ranks #14 among all tackles, left and right. His ratings are almost the same for run blocking and pass protection.
Do we have our future blindside guy?
I think early in his career he was always a good protector, he just had lots of mental blunders. I think he knows our system well now. I am afraid he's not going to stick around knowing he can start elsewhere now.
We'd really have to pony up and I fear we're in a horrible position. Unless Trent retires, and he won't after the reworked deal, our best bet might be begging Moore to stay and become the new starting LG.

A deal with a lot of the money in 2026 or later would work. Williams becomes less of an issue in 2026. A post-June 1 cut in 2026 nets us $25 million in cap space.
With nothing guaranteed in the draft, keeping Moore and focusing on Center seems to be the best play for the draft. It won't be easy. KC would have to do some maneuvering on their cap but they cannot go into next season with the mess they have this year at both tackle positions.

Sign Center Dalman and let Beau and Puni lock up Guards.. instant #1 OL

We don't have the cap space to sign anyone worth a s**t this off-season, we won't be able to retain half our FA starters next year.

I rather resign Mooney than over spend for a C that's not gonna be elite like Mooney is. Which we aren't going to do, Mooney will be gone. Including players like Mason, Huff, Moore, and possibly even Greenlaw.

Originally posted by GoreGoreGore:with Demo and Green coming up in the world, an above avg Center would help tremendously. Brendal has lost some games for us single handedly.
