[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 490818, member: 4199"] The weak point there is Barclay. He is the downgrade from Newhouse. Yes, moving to Bulaga would probably improve LT, but would seriously weaken RT. True, even the greats get beat. I'm just pointing what I perceive to be the problem. In that situation, the LT doesn't have to worry about inside moves, because the guard will have the B gap anyway, by virtue of picking up that defended. Again, leaving Newhouse to focus on the outside defender/move. (I'm simplifying and ignore stunts and the like.) I think Newhouse can be that guy, provided he gets help [I]sometimes[/I]. I'm not talking every play or even most plays. Just a little chip here, a double team now and then, and you've given the end something to think about. Probably enough for him to succeed for a long, long time. I strongly disagree with that. No tackle bodies on our roster are good run blockers other than Bulaga and Barclay. To my eye, no other player will get it done when we need to run, which limits potential fits. [/QUOTE]
