I'm in no way trying to defend Andrus Peat, however we need good depth at the position heading into post season.

Seeing him as a full participant at practice is good news.

Hopefully Andrus took CSP message personal and go out there and perform.

Playing well in the post season is where it matters most.

For that to have any value, Peat would have to be last in the depth chart. He is not good depth this or last season. He is a warm body that has arguably been a contributing factor in other people’s injuries.

Totally agree here. I think some of Armsteads problems the last 2 years late in the season is because he has to pick up Peats slack.
As soon as Armstead goes down the rest start falling down like Dominoes. Peat being the first Domino.
You would think when he plays next to Armstead Peat would benefit. I’m all for letting Easton start.

Unfortunately, I see the same thing. Although, Hurst has been impressive in the run game. I am not so sure how good run blocker he is.

Edit: Peat is a good pulling guard in the run game. His problem is that he's just not very good in pass protection and that is when his whiffs get other players hurt....namely Drew.

What’s been impressive is how well our line has performed week to week in spite of a constant rotation of several players in a position group where continuity is key.
