Like it or not, from what Monti said after the draft they are not worried about OG. They obviously believe Adams is the guy. Yes, Adams. He started the last five games. Based on how they used him the entire year they think they have gotten him ready to be an NFL starter. Remember, he got by far the most snaps of any rookie last preseason. Why they are so confident in him, I am not sure. But I think they really are.
If Monti's answer to RG is Adams, based on last year, then I again call Monti's acumen into question. I hope he didn't set the D up for success only to set the O up for failure.

I knew you wouldn't like it. And, Adams had a lot of struggles and I don't like basically penciling him in as the RG this season. But, yeah, their actions and words seem to indicate they are ok with that.

It is possible. We don't want an OG who is bad at pass blocking, which he is, to allow consistent interior pressure. I can also tell you're not a big fan either :)

I think he got much better every game he played and by the last couple games was actually playing very well.

Lets put it this way, I want him playing ahead of Evan Brown.

Well there’s really no one to push either of them, which is what the biggest challenge is.
