MTechnik Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 From here: http://www.tsn.ca/nfl/story/?id=294660 Next week, the team anticipates moving struggling right tackle Stephon Heyer to left tackle and Williams to right tackle. Right guard? Yet to be determined. I guess we'll see how Big Mike works as Right Tackle. I hope we can run right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostofSparta Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I'd much rather have Heyer at LT than Batiste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJL Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 It's funny, people seem to hate Heyer at RT, but slide him over to fill in for Samuels and no one minds. I mean it could be they know it's just temporary, but I don't think I've seen a Skin's fan here show any sort of patience. Maybe he really is an LT.

BlackBush Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I would like to see what BMW has but after the preseason he had this is scary. I mean mushroom cloud scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gutlead74 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Our OL is terriable. It was before injury it's worse now. The ship has sailed on this season and it sailed the 3 previous offseasons. I have preached this to no avail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDoyler23 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Expect a lot of extra protection. Maybe line up an extra OL as a TE. Sheesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#98QBKiller Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Heyer didn't look that bad at LT last year...at least not for a backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsHokieFan Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Jeez this is going to be a disaster Heyer is at best a backup, and Mike :doh: You won't see Cooley out in routes very much, thats for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTechnik Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 Yeah, cooley will look more like an extra tackle than a tight end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it could be they know it's just temporary, but I don't think I've seen a Skin's fan here show any sort of patience. Maybe he really is an LT. Don't forget, he made his mark as an UDFA his first preseason filling in for Samuels (who sat out all of preseason for an injury I can't remember), and his adequate play endeared him to many of us. I'm pretty sure LT is his more natural position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure LT is his more natural position. I always think more of his playing RT when Jansen went down so quickly. I actually forgot he spent most of the preseason playing in place of Samuels.

Ray Brown Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Mike is going to get abused out at tackle. He can't handle speed at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
