Lots of people love to bash him because he was chosen 4th overall. One fact that is almost never talk about is why he was. That pick at that time was a no brainer. We had no left tackle. The only O-line man rated in the top 5 happened to be a left tackle and fell to us at 4. We picked the guy who was not only a huge need but rated as the highest O-lineman in the draft. Has Brick been great? No. Is he awful? No. He has been very good at times and only OK at others. He's given up some bad sacks and shut down pro bowl pass rushers. I think he'll be fine long term. I want to see how the line goes this year with a great guard next to him instead of the traffic cone that was thier last year. Hopefully having Callahan as the line coach helps as well. I doubt things could be as bad as they were with Wise here.
Moore is an above average guard? In what world? He has never excelled. Most years he is a penalty machine. When he had great players next to him, he only played average. He would not be a starter in NE, Indy, Seattle, Denver, or Pitt. He should be a backup. But we have nothing better at the moment.
