Guessing the quote about Scott was more about him being the most versatile since he could play multiple OL spots. Glenn and Saturday were definitely the best OL we had in the Peyton era. I just remember back then us plugging in whoever at LG: 7th rounders, UDFAs, guys signed to the practice squad the week before, and it was fine. I'm sure Peyton had a lot to do with that, but Glenn did as well.

Also, I never suggested that Nelson should have been moved to LT. If he was able to do that it probably would have happened well before now.
The Oline for Manning could move positions because thats how they were coached by Howard Mudd.
