I did the best I could at answering your question....no one else did. So please let me expand on this. If you can go back & watch JB's college film(Tubes) @ Louisville when he was playing OT. There's a difference, I don't know why but there is. JB did not have any real issues major issue in quickness & getting into position playing OT:huh:. His opponents just found it difficult to find a way around JB in a short period of time. Somehow JB was always in their way as time ran out.I don't know if you answered the question right ? Jamon Brown Strenths are not quickness. I think he fits as a tackle.He is slow off the line , but plays with good balance.Once he gets his hands on a defender he is fine.
AD had a field day with him last year.
Rooming & playing next to Big Rob is a strength.
Cory I think gets cut for sure
I will agree with you that JB had serious bad problems the last 2 seasons @ both RG & LG posts. Fact was JB was beat out by 6th round selection Cody Wichmann both in 2015 & 2016 seasons. Cody Wichmann is also known for being slow duck footed too. JB was real slow to react to his assignment playing the interior OG posts.
Oh yes in reference to Aaron Donald .... well he eats all pro OG's as early appetizers before moving on to the main course meal of RB's & QB's!:snicker: So I am not going to hold that hard against JB. If JB holds onto this RT post in TC & pre season he is sure not to see much of AD in his face but more from Easley & Westbrooks. That might be why he took up this new position with such vigor & intensity instead.Its the left side of the OL problem now.
I say this about TE Cory Harkey .....its not that Cory is a real good LOS TE but when Cory is compared to the rest of the Rams TE's in blocking talent & skills there is no one close to him. There must be great improvement from the others. I am sure that's going to happen anytime soon because they stink @ it. Another thing going against Cory is his near 2 million $$ cost. That might well be the reason Cory gets released more than anything else.
