SeaBass-tion Volmer was drafted in the second round, after the Patriots decided on him, instead of William Beatty,a highly rated LOT candidate.
Dante Scarnecchia went down to Houston and supposedly ran the Pro day, as he worked out Vollmer. Dante obviously came back highly enthused with what he saw. So I have to expect that Vollmer will start some time in the next 20 games. I suspect it will be about the 10th or 11 game.
If he does win the starting RT position from Nick Kaczur. Does Nick become the swing tackle reserve? Or if Kaczur is shifted to the interior line, where does he press to start? Left Guard making Mankins expendable in FAs in 2010? Or Right Guard making Stephen Neal expendable as a FA in 2010 and going on 34 years old?
First of all does Kaczur fit inside?
If he does what is his most natural position RG or LG, irrespective of openings in either position?
Can he handle either position, as a starter?
If he he serves as an interior reserve, would he immediately go to the head of the class for interior reserves?
Would that make, say a Hochstein, a FA in 2010 and going on 32 expendable?
Could he handle the reserve center position?
Discussion please.
