    Polian - 10 Most Important players in 2012

    6. Chris Hairston, OT, Buffalo Bills

    It could ultimately be another lineman at left tackle for the Bills, but I'm assuming it will be Hairston. Whoever it is will have to step up and keep QB Ryan Fitzpatrick upright. Buffalo is thin under center and has no one else who can play at Fitzpatrick's level if he's injured. If that happens, the offense is going to have a very hard time staying on the field and an upgraded defense featuring DE Mario Williams will get worn down in a hurry.

            You can say the same about 2/3 of the league.

              I still see Hairston and Glenn starting somehow.

                Yes he is. Glenn has played 1 season at LT his whole life. He has some learning to do and some lbs to shred.

                    So the challenge for him is to remain on that list, it would be huge.

                      Personally, while I think Hairston may start the season at LT, Glenn will push him hard, and it may be difficult for him to hold on to the position. Of course, with the signing of Vince Young, Buffalo got a little less thin under center too.
                      I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                      I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                        Well Buddy did say that you expect your first 2 picks to be starters, so I think Glenn will get every opportunity to be the starter. We'll see though...

                            Exactly. Hairston on the left, Glenn on the right, seeing spot duty at LT to help his progression.

                              More like 98% of the league. GOOD QBs are so RARE that no team can keep a GOOD QB as a back up for long because another team will want him as a starter.
