Kingsley is going to be fine at guard. He's not likely going to be Trey or Thuney; but I'd bet he's better than average at the position.

Caliendo was a really poor choice to be on this roster. He isn’t really athletic, his arms are super short being just under 31 inches and he wasn’t very strong.

Compare that to Kingsley who is 25 lbs heavier, arms are over 3 inches longer, is super athletic and benched 31 reps of 225.

The Denver game against Zach Allen was Kingsley’s first ever game playing G and he did a nice job, likely in large part to his physical traits.

Yeah.

Maybe we should just draft a guy with the measurables every year until we have a line five across of superior, athletic, long armed monsters.

Not kidding, really.

It’s easier to believe in Moore bc we haven’t seen him play for us yet I think.

I hate to say I don’t believe in Kingsly after just a couple of games.

Hoping both develop into positive players for us!

Bump 03-25-2025 06:54 PM

I have no real reason to be confident in either. It's all a mystery, hope it works out

xztop123 03-25-2025 07:59 PM

not sure what the plan for lt is. Moore is here for two years I guess we could draft one next year

My thoughts are that we can never sign a big name at left tackle so we gotta end up drafting and developing

Wasnt wild about resigning Caliendo at 3.26m even as depth. Hope I'm wrong and he proves his keep.

Caliendo makes like 1M. I agree he's a nothing burger, but we are not paying him 3M to hopefully sit on the bench.

If we don't draft OT, then we're basically trusting Moore to get the job done. It also presents some depth concerns because we know that what we had last year wasn't working. Additionally, if OTs have to be developed unless you're picking near the top, doesn't that dictate that we need to draft an OT to develop while we have Moore? I can't speak about who we ought to take and where we should take him, but it sure seems like a position we need to prioritize even if that only means getting someone to develop.

I'm pretty confident that Moore will be better than any of the LTs of the last few years.

I am confident Moore will be better but I would still take a swing at LT in the draft if you find someone you like. We really are set at every position except maybe safety.

We should also remember that we're not exactly golden at RT. Any OT we draft is, at a minimum, depth at both LT and RT and possibly a replacement for either.

I am abundantly confident that both will be fine.

I agree but at RT its a money commitment issue. We have Taylor on a contract that is LT money playing RT and for two more years.
