Exactly. Why force-feed him into a position he has clearly struggled with? Just to get their 1st round pick on the field?

How about because he has the talent to play both? Again, he wasn't going to drop Veldeer or move him to RT, nor should he.

This is one time where I don't see the outrage.

I'm not outraged by any means as Veldheer played well at LT. But his play was down from previous seasons and I thought their best OL would have been JV at RT and DJH at LT. I wouldn't have done it last year but would have this year. That's also on the outside looking in but I think they wanted DJH to get his feet wet first before throwing him into LT.

We might make that switch next year, if Humphries plays well there this year. We will have to see though. I don't recall Veldeer ever playing RT though.

Interesting note, I just looked it up and he started out as the starting C for Oakland. But, you're right he didn't play RT, which I mistakenly thought he did at first in Oakland.

I remember him playing C. Hell move him there.
