    Try him out at RT first, he's actually good out in space, I think he could pull it off, I know his arms are shortish, but not my much, sure beats having a gaping hole in the middle of the line..

    Hey, i'm all for it...but he needs to put up or shut up at this point. He already looted the team, now you need to show something finally in return

    Not right tackle. JJ watt eat his freaking lunch at RT. he just needs to be gone . Or at least to the bench. At least get some one who can run block over there. Levitre too soft last two years.

    JJ Watt whoops him at LG, put him away from the play and maybe he's not too bad

    but just the fact we have to find ways to hide his deficiencies is enough to cut his ass

    Levitre is a bad guard so let's bounce him out to a tougher position to face better athletes?

    JC, you are drinking your own koolaid!!!

    You are delusional if you think he'll be as good or better(?) at RT.

    Let's look at the FACTS!

    His arms are VERY short for a tackle! Heck, people complain about 3-4 OLB's having 32" arms and they are 250lbs. His 32" arms are at least a couple inches short and that DOES make a significant difference when you combine that with his short height (sub 6'4") and smaller stature (300lbs).

    And while he does get knocked back into the QB on bull rushes, he gets burned pretty easily by players who redirect against him and outside pass rushers tend to have a lot more counter moves that inside DT's.

    Add to that that he is on an island at RT and doesn't have the same kind of phone both to fight it out in limited space.

    So combine his poor skills at redirecting, his lack of speed and quickness, his short stature and short arms and you are asking your QB to be killed!

    If we had a descent center, this thread wouldn't exist.
