Where do u see McIntosh contributing once healthy?
Once healthy, I see D-Mac coming in starting somewhere right away. Since he's played OT his whole career, I see him being put at RT, moving Carey to RG, who played that position for most of his senior year at U Miami. So, with the entire O-line healthy, I see 9 members being taken on the 53-man roster, looking like this (the positions that each player could play are given in parentheses, starting with his most likely position first, to his other options last):
LT:Wade Smith(LT)...LG:Jeno James(LG)...C:Seth McKinney(C,RG,LG)...RG:Vernon Carey(RT, RG, LG, LT)...RT:Damion McIntosh(RT, LT)
...............................Billy Yates (LG, C)..........................Greg Jerman (RG, RT)......John St. Clair (RT, RG,LT,C)
.............................................................................Taylor Whitley (RG)
Until D-Mac is healthy, I see the O-line like this: Smith... James... McKinney... Jerman... Carey. I believe only 8 O-lineman will be on the active roster. McIntosh i think will be on the opening day roster and remain inactive untill healthy. Then when he returns I see Whitley becoming inactive. (Just my personal opinion that Whitley sucks, can't move worth $hit, and doesn't deserve to be on this roster, but when it's all said and done, i think the coach's will give it to him.)
If (god forbid) Wade Smith were to go down before McIntosh becomes healthy, I think Vernon Carey would be moved to LT temporarily, since he also played that position some throughout his career at Univ. Miami (and he does move around well with good athleticism, especially for his size). In that case the line would look like this: Carey...James... McKinney... Jerman... St.Clair.
Once McIntosh becomes healthy, he immediately becomes the top LT backup so, then If Smith were to go down, i think the line would look like this: McIntosh... James... McKinney... Jerman... Carey.
For those wondering about the C position, if McKinney were to go down, I think Yates would be the immediate replacement for 2 reasons. #1: he's practiced at C some last year, and #2: he would know the offense better than St. Clair (the only other real option to put at C) since he's been here longer. (St. Clair was one of the best C prospects coming out in the 2000 draft, so he'd be the next option after Yates for the C position).
