im cautiously optimistic about the OL here, still dont think we have really improved that much...but do have the depth that we didnt have last year. Hoping Bulaga will challenge for a starting spot but atleast be ready to step in if cliffy or taushy go down injured.

Mike McCarthy.'s Comments...

We're a better football team in 2010 today than we have been in the past but that's just on paper.

I like the way we look on paper.

I may be wrong... Trust me, I often am.

BUT I SWEAR.... THat is THE EXACT SAME (Word For Word) statement he made after last years draft.

So do we have a depth chart yet for the OL? If so, what is it?

If not, anyone want to take a guess?

Here's mine:
Cliffy - Spitz - Wells - Sitton - Tausch
Buluga - Colledge - Spitz - ? - Lang

I wonder who will take that last spot. Dietrich-Smith or Newhouse. I asume that we won't go with 10 O-linemen on the roster.

Clifton - Bulaga
Spitz - Newhouse
Wells - Dietrich Smith
Sitton - Newhouse
Tauscher - Lang

I really wanted to see Lang in the starting lineup this year and I though the place for him was going to be LG. I hope it is a real competition for left and right tackle. I understand you don't pay guys that kind of money to sit on the bench, but I want the best players on the field. I have no problem giving thank you contacts to old veterans who bled green and gold on the field.

Colledge, Babre, and Giacommini have had enough time to become players and haven't gotten it done. I used to be a Colledge, but his matador whiff that cost us the playoff was the final nail for me.

I see Colledge as a backup to both G positions assuming Spitz beats him out for the starting LG job.

Clifton, Tauscher, Wells, Sitton, Bulaga, Spitz, and Lang are probably all good bets to make the final roster based on past performance, draft position, and starting experience. That probably leaves Colledge, Newhouse, Dietrich-Smith, Barbre, and Giacomini battling for two and maybe three more offensive line spots on the final 53-man roster.

Assuming that this is not just McCarthy doing his usual management non-speak, here's my prediction:

Either Newhouse proves to be the steal of the draft and the LG equivalent of Sitton, or LG proves to be a sieve and Bulaga (sans reps at G) gets shifted over midseason. Oh yes, and if the "sieve" scenario develops, Rodgers will be knocked out of a game before midseason.

IMO only putting Bulaga at LT reps is asking for trouble. I'm sorry, but if McCarthy and Thompson go into this season thinking that Colledge/Spitz are the answer for 2010 at LG, they're playing with fire next to the gas pumps.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

i'm a little worried about College being able to be a professional after all his whining, to be honest.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

Actually, I'm hoping that Dietrich-Smith and Newhouse both beat out Colledge as Colledge rubbed me the wrong way last year. Yeah, I know that we go with 9. So if one of them beat out Colledge, I'd be stoked. Or best possible situation I guess is for both to beat out Colledge and one of them make it to the PS.
