I don't understand why the coaching staff haven't tried him in that spot. He is an all natural left tackle, that is what he played in college. His film tape from North Dakota of him looks really good. Billy Turner cant be any worse then Dallas Thomas.

I dont see him as a natural left tackle. He played left tackle because he was at North Dakota and was by far their best tackle. He seems a natural right tackle in the NFL. He doesnt have the footwork at this level to be a left tackle
 
Im not missing that idiot. He wasnt that good here . He had a good year in Buffalo though.

He would have helped this team I think...BUT, I do have a problem with him disrespecting women the way he allegedly did at the golf tournament...the bully gate thing really didn't bug me too much...a grown man should be able to handle that.

Attacking his car, basically being a pig. He is abetter guard than what we have but we dont need this scumbag on team. I dont think we should have all choirboys but he is not a leader and Im ok with not having his type on team. He hasnt been a leader anywhere he has gone.

Not sure at this point he can play OT on either side. He's not been very good inside at protecting Tannehill. I don't even want to think about him facing the speed DEs

Ozzy rules
 
Without a doubt should be getting a shot at tackle. That's his best fit, and it's pretty clear. Rather than kicking Dallas out there in emergency situations for the hundredth time...we know what's gonna happen.
 
He's a 'close quarters' blocker - much better suited to inside where his gaps in technique can be protected some.

Exceptional feet yes, but it's his hands and frame that would concern me for him being at Tackle. He's doing a good job developing at RG - let's leave him there. He comes across as a mature, level headed individual who is very focused. I'm fully expecting his development to take a big jump forward in the off season, and we could have a top tier Guard on our hands next year.

Dont need him to be a leader...need him to be a bully in the middle of the line...I think he would have responded well to DC...

The line wasnt good when he was here, there are players I miss that were actually good here. Ritchie isnt one of them
