I got in an argument on here with someone that he could play LT and perhaps we should play him there. Think it was Omaha.

It easier to find a guard than a tackle. How good could he be at the position? But would we be replacing an all pro guard with an average to good guard. Then perhaps only have an average to good tackle at the position. LTs are usually taller longer and leaner. I think I lean towards trying to draft a replacement.

Probably was me. Nelson isn’t your long term solution at tackle imo.

Nope, I would keep him inside.
