The contract makes me think they are going to hope he beats out Carey for the LT spot. You dont pay 57.75 million for a RT.

They've already stated he will play LT and Carey will play RT. Now they need a LG and they are all set on the Oline...

I know what they are saying, Im just saying many are projecting him into the NFL as a RT. Personally I think he'll do fine as a LT, and probably play at a Pro Bowl level.
