You are correct.

3 of 5 season-ending IR. Peat is as brittle as they come.

Soft as cotton & highly compensated to sit & watch. Some people here will defend & make excuses for this guy until the end of time though

So, according to the cliche being past around when talking about Armstead's value - "the best ability is availability" - Ruiz was the best O-lineman this past season?!

Another plus is he isn't made of glass like Armstead and Peat with Ruiz being the only starter to play every snap of the season.

I'm curious to see what he does with Doug Marrone leading the group.
If Ruiz could make a leap, which is not impossible to see happen, it could go a long way in creating a really solid right side of the line.

I defended him being extended. My enthusiasm waned early. Now I'm in the group with pitchforks.

Best? I'd argue that availability is one of the more important qualities...

Especially when you're considering a contract extension beyond age 34...

Don't shoot the messenger - that's what the talking heads keep spouting and their audience keeps parroting.

LT (2) 71 - Ryan Ramcyzk, 73 - Ethan Greenidge (RFA 2022) *Re-Signed

^^ You are certain on this JP?

For what it's worth, I heard on Underhill's podcast (last night) touch on this very subject. He seems to believe that Ramz will remain on the right side.

Guess we'll wait and see what Dougie M does inside those trenches.
