Idk, I'm still looking for the memo everyone except me got about Moore.

You did watch last year, right? You want a guard trying to play tackle again?

We went from having zero left tackle to having two. I'm on board with that.

Kind of silly that anybody expected anything less considering how Veach hammers glaring needs/holes.

People are talking about Wanya Morris but man is this quote pretty damning for Jawaan Taylor. This is like an employee being put on a performance plan. They are not happy with him at all.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Asked about the tackle rotation, head coach Andy Reid reiterates what he has said in the past: best five.

Deshaun Watson says hi.

If Taylor was anything like Watson, he'd be pulling early at the massage table.

There's also no reason not to play Simmons if he's ready, which Reid seems incredibly confident he will be. Then it's all about earning a starting job.

He's not winning the job out of camp over a two year starter in Taylor. And he'll only beat out Moore if Moore completely falls on his face. That seems unlikely for a 4 year veteran who's been through this stuff several times already.

If Simmons is so good, nd he’s going to take a year to actually take a starting a position….why did we trade into the second round to take him?

Is a late 5th round pick worth giving up an affordable 5th year on his contract, not being a first round selection, which automatically comes with the affordable 5th year?

Yikes, quoting Pete Sweeny.. Might as well anoint him the "Teicher Award" for stating the obvious. Hello, news flash... It's the same as it ever was. Why would he change it up now? Throw them all in a crucible and let it cook. Deflect media questions.

Huh?

We took him with the last pick of the 1st. We have the 5th year option on him.

We've been to 5 Super Bowls in 6 years, and there are still fans that think they know better than these guys. It's really kind of weird.

Don't get me wrong, I'll disagree at times, but I always end my post with "I am clueless and will trust them." :) These guys who just harp on every move they don't agree with, I just can't understand.

Yeah - this is what Reid says. Every time.

Doesn't mean anything.

Like I said when people were throwing out made up quotes from Reid and Veach - if the quote is interesting, it's almost certainly bullshit.

Because Andy never says ANYTHING. It's all coachspeak.

He might provide insight into things that have already happened on occasion, but never on future developments.

How could they be? He's a top 3 paid RT and plays like the bottom 20s.

If you ask me, this pick was more about replacing Taylor than it was Moore.

They get things wrong.

They get them wrong less often than most. And they get them wrong less often than guys on the internet.

But they absolutely have a number of miscalculations on their résumé.
