Did BR cc this article to Dan and Bruce? Can we also start talking about how Morgan Moses is a bust? The guy looked completely outmatched when he was out there and then he ends up getting injured. Remember when he had undrafted rookie FA Stephon Heyer playing RT? The guy wasn't great, but he at least held his own. And he did it far better than Moses.

I can't wait to cut Chester and clear $4M in cap space. Can't wait.

he was a project when we drafted him and the skins knew he struggled with speed. Give him time to develop, or move him to guard

Thank you! One of the things I expect with the new GM is that the culture will change somewhat & player development will be a big part of that. Don't just write off players simply because they have a bad rookie season. Be patient & actually retain players if they can possibly be made serviceable in a few years. If they don't make it - big deal - that is part of the rebuilding process. Even the great teams swing and miss at times.

We all need to get out of the mindset of believing that everything will be fixed in one offseason & that any player who doesn't perform immediately should be kicked to the curb. HTTR

I don't have any problems giving a guy time to develop. But there are players you just know who won't cut it. Two good examples were Heath Shuler and Desmond Howard. People knew they were busts as early as training camp. (Howard, of course, later resurrected his career, but at a different position.) Maybe Moses can cut it at guard. But we can't wait forever to figure that out. That's because we've got to give RGIII as good a shot at a working o-line as we can NOW not only to protect him and open up our passing game, but also to assess how he truly functions as a pocket passer.

well moses injury will set him back quite a bit but by year 3 if he isnt looking like he can play then we move on

i wouldnt write him off at RT or as a swing Tackle .

What's your opinion concerning a move that puts him at guard?

i would be in favor of it easily

Of course, but do you think that his chances of success are better at Tackle or guard. His insertion at guard would certainly make for an impressive looking front.

so far i think he is a better guard . and his injury could ice that . i dont feel he moves well enough out on the edge
