I suspect Bulaga will stick on the right side. Newhouse is a more natural left tackle, at least on paper (taller, longer arms, that was his college position, all that jazz.)
Also, between the two, Newhouse is more finesse and Bulaga is more power, which means Left and Right side. And Bulaga has done an excellent job on the right side. I'm all for keeping everything as close to how we started the season as possible.
A more interesting though: Lets say that Newhouse does so well, he ends up winning the LT job this and next year. Now what do we do? Certainly, a number 1 pick as your swing-tackle is luxury, but would it be more appropriate to trade him?
Or what if the best five are Newhouse, Lang, Sherrod, Sitton, and Bulaga? Sherrod and Newhouse need to be tackles, both bombed their rookie seasons when tested at guard. Anyone know if Lang, Bulaga, or Sitton could play center? Could you imagine that Line? Left to right: Newhouse, Bulaga, Lang, Sitton, Sherrod? Lang would be the old man in only his 4th season.
Talk about a good problem to have...
