I think we need to dig out our old thread regarding the the difference between playing on the right side of the OL and playing on the left side (for a right-handed QB).
I don't think that Light would be a probowl RT. He is a probowl LT. If we draft a OT, I would expect him to play on the right side and would hope that in a couple of years that he could be a probowl RT.
BTW, I am concerned about Neal's ability to stay on a field. There may be more of an issue at RG than at RT.

Starting the rookie on the right side is fine. You still upgrade one position and upgrade OL depth.
However . . . I would get him on the left side as soon as he's ready. If that's 2008 then I'm putting him there as a rookie. If that's 2009 or 2010 then so be it.
