Active Roster
Oliver has it down to the nose. Todd Perry's first year he wasn't as great, but after that he has been everything we'd had hoped for. Wade is big, but that's about it. I dunno if he's just not trying as hard in the weight room, but that boy gets stood up more than that ugly guy who always asks the fine chicks out.
Someone said that Dixon is too small to play RT. Hell that may be true, but then again Dixon had faced DTs his whole life, now he'd just switch to blocking the RDE, whom is more geared towards run blocking than pass rushing. I think that would make him better. Everyone knows that LT is a MUCH harder position than RT, the money proves it. Dixon's problem was that he got beat by faster pass rushers at LT. Todd Wade does that anyway at RT, and I believe Dixon, can run block AND pass block better than Wade. It's not like he hasn't had to face the big guys before while playing Guard. Now he won't have to face quite as many premier pass rushers, and can do something that he's done his carrer, take up one of the bigger guys. A RDE is typically smaller than a DT and bigger than a LDE, so it may make Dixon's job even easier than we have now, and also let us have our best 5 out there. We also have Wade to backup Dixon in case of injury or if Smith gets hurt put Dixon back at LT and Wade at RT.
Imagine Smith-Nails-Ruddy-Perry-Dixon. If Smith does prove he can play, I think Dixon and Perry will help each other out so much, that our right side of the line can be a dominant one. All those Bronco lines were not huge guys but smaller guys with great technique. I think Ruddy, Perry, and Dixon fill that mold. I don't think that will happen, because I think it's too late and their still trying to see if Wade improves. Oh well, it would be a cool line. :)
