Iupati plays the same position as Jonathan Cooper. Is actually a good pulling guard.

Loses focus in pass protection, though.

im kinda mixed on this one...I like maulers but this offense demands a decent pass protector....of course...a strong running game lightens the pass rush...we all know that.....just appears the NFL does not care anymore...they are going to throw the ball no matter what.

Iupati with good coaching can do it all. He's got the beast mode and that's exactly what we need and want!

who moves to the right side?

I think that Ted Larsen does. Cooper may be a sunk cost on a guaranteed contract at this point. Larsen, Cooper, and Earl Watford get to fight it out, and only two of them likely make the team.

To depend on Jonathan Cooper to be a coordinated center after falling over his own two feet throughout his first two seasons doesn't seem to be a dependable plan.

He's a great run blocker but he's god awful in pass protection. Palmer better watch out lol.

Improves the run game though.

once we can run, pass protection gets a lot easier.
