With Sam Young , McClendon and  DeMarcus Love on the 53 -  the writing may be on the wall for Rackley if he doesn't step it up.

 

Two of those guys are Tackles, but they have but moved inside to play guard before...    (Young is 6'8" - 322 !!)

i love the move to get more o-linemen on the team.  however, why does it come after the line has had their best play of the season?

 

with regards to rackley and the rest of the straglers, it's true competition now.  either you fit in the ZBS or you will be out on the street.

As it should be...either help the team or get gone!

I'd guess they aren't comfortable with the depth or lack thereof at both tackle positions.

Competition.  Why wait until next year when we've got a new QB to test out some players on the OL when we can now?  Imagine at the end of the year being able to say "Our O-line is a lot better, and with Luke coming back it may actually be good.  Draft a center, and maybe a guard, and we'll be set."  
I was wrong about Trent Baalke.

May also be concerned with Nwaneri's knee.

 

It's just a numbers/bodies game at this point.

With the trade of Monroe and injured reserve move of Joeckel, the team had no choice but to sign additional OTs.
