Who?
well, I guess we can stop all the non-sense about how we lost our two starting OT, seeing as we didn't even want the guy on the roster.
well Lutui isn't even in the league. Not even as a backup. So we can cross him offToo true. I just don't know what to say about the Cardinals offensive line when they bring in guys to play there and then run them out of town.
Was Rex Hadnot really better than Deuce Lutui? Is Adam Snyder really better than Rex Hadnot? Were Alan Fanceca and Daryn Colledge better than Reggie Wells. Batitse and DJ Young better than Bridges? Judging from the results the answer is no.
It's just amazing that one franchise can be so clueless when it comes to offensive line talent for so many years.

Lutui plays for the Titans. Has had a couple of starts recently due to injuries.
He still would be the best guard on our team. Certainly better than Snyder.

I stumbled across this site for O-linemen stats. I couldn't speak as to how accurate it really is, but I thought Snyder did worse than Colledge, but this site seems to disagree

Massie apparently REALLY sucks:

so apparently our OTs REALLY suck. If this site is correct
Lutui was much better than Hadnot, but he publicly disagreed with Whiz, just as Matty boy did and we all know how Whiz handled that.
Massie has been a real bust. I bet that if the Cards knew he was this bad, they would have passed on him too. It spoke volumnes when Massie kept dropping on the depth and importance charts in his college program. If his college coaches knew he was bad as did the rest of the league, what does that tell us about the Cards ability to evaluate linemen? At least they had the sense to draft Potter who did very well at Boise State aka college factory for NFL offensive linemen.
But it looks like the Cards are clueless about Kelemete who excelled in college protecting Jake Locker's blindside and was voted one of their team captains, as All Pac12 as a tackle. He is a little shorter than they want for a NFL offensive tackle so the Cards are trying to put lots of useless weight on the kid to make him a slow and heavy run blocker in the mold Grimm likes while ignoring that Kelemete was a very good pass blocking tackle at U of Washington. Sure he needs better technique and more strenght, but he has fairly quick feet and a nasty nature (he was originally a defensive tackle).
