Shouldn't we be using Brown back at RT and put Streif in at LT?

Strief to the LT?
Stinch was only resigned to give Bushrod time to develope at LT. Stinch is the odd man out in the big picture, IMO. Next year Brown will be RT and Bushrod will be LT. Stinch will walk as a FA. That leaves strief as our #1 backup at both tackle positions.
What I like about Stief is The fact he gets better each year. I really like him. You never know he may make Brown excellent trade bait.

He's a good tackle. Sure, he'd be better at RT, but is he so bad at LT?

Re: who was the steal in our draft?
 

That's exactly what I keep asking myself. Where is all of this Brown talk coming from? I love the guy and I think he's a keystone type player. Maybe I missed something last year.

Re: who was the steal in our draft?
 

It's from the possible trade up to the #2 spot with the Rams. I think everyone agrees that Brown is a better RT than LT. Streif did well at LT so it seems the line would improve with Streif at LT and Brown at RT. Make Stinch be the back up tackle or put him at LG.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Brown. he is a pro bowler. Have a question to ask y'all.

1) If at RT Stnch or Streif can do the job and Bushrod prove to very good LT in the NFL would you think the wise move would be to trade Brown for say a #2 and #5?

Me I say keep him but if you have a player that can step in and do the job you really have to consider doing it. The pick in rounds 2 and 5 would have to in the top 10 though.

No need to put Brown at RT. Yes, Brown is probably a better RT than a LT, but isn't that true for most guys? The LT is way harder to play. I know Brown had a couple of rough games last year, but he did have some nagging injury issues. With those nagging injuries he probably would have played those couple of games at RT just as bad. Anyway, Brown is a legitimate all pro LT. I do like Streif but Brown is a starter for a reason, that reason is he is simply the better player. I am just happy that the Saints appear to have solid depth on the front line. The Saints should be able to sustain a major injury if it occurs.

The only problem with Brown is that he gets concrete-feet from time to time, he needs to work on his foot quickness to avoid lunging in passpro. Especially against the faster ends.

Re: Whats wrong with Brown?
 

I'm going to say this....Brown is not an All-Pro!!! He made one Pro Bowl while riding the hype of the saints best season ever. By the way...he also leads the team in penalties by an offensive lineman. So...yes he's a good RT, but Strief would be a better LT IMO.

Re: who was the steal in our draft?
 

Brown is one of the premier left tackles in the NFC if not the whole NFL....the criticisms started when trade talks started about using him to move up into the #2 spot to land dorsey....our offensive line is not expendable....they gave drew time last year and allowed the fewest sacks in the NFL....since we got rid of faine we had to fix a whole...we brought in matt lehr to do that...our line is back to where it was....dorsey on defense wouldnt fill the void left by Brown missing at LT
