That line had no depth I noticed how he was getting pushed around and off the ball early in the season and early in games. (I’m not a coach so that is just my observation and opinion) I don’t think it was depth then. I still remember when he signed him, Garner singled out his strength. And I saw that up until last season. I’m sure going through spring and knowing this is his money year we will see his best.

metafour 4,958 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 With regards to Truesdale, it was looking like Jeremiah Wright (a convert from the OL last year) was going to play over him until his injury - and now they're about to land Tony Fair, a guy with NFL ability, who plays the same "role". I would be very surprised if Tony Fair wasn't starting in that NT position. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgufcm 4,096 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I also wondered if Trues took his foot off the gas without Narlob and DB on either side of him. He didn't seem to play with the same fire without them, but he's plenty big and strong enough to anchor down at NT. It'd be a really good combination if we land Fair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numerous people saying this kid is an NFL player. Could be an early building block for Eason's recruiting resume if he can get him drafted year 1, in addition to showing that the 3-4 will be viable here. (Not that I think anybody's really concerned about that part, but it will be good to show big time NTs that we need to be on their short list.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
