Lelito, Harris,

ok anyone get the warm fuzzies when they took the field? did anyone look forward to them starting the next week and think it was going to be just ok. i am not asking for feeling great here

both still need a ton of work to be servicable

What about Jones. Did you forget we still have Marcel Jones on the roster? I think we should give him a try at RT tackle. He's got to move better than Strief and I think I read somewhere that he's a great run blocker. The knock on him was that he didn't have enough upper body strength. Well 2 years in the weight room should have taken care of that.

the reason I think that the coaches are high on Harris is that they used him this year like they did Strief the first 2-3 years: tackle-eligible and ST a lot

I think Lelito will be good as well, and might push DLP out the door in training camp
