That being said. Marcus Cannon is showing us a lot. He can even show us more by being effective in taking on a speed rusher like Wake next week. If he can, it will be he can become a nice bargaining chip for the Pats in their negotiations with Volmer. However I would MUCH rather see him in concert with Volmer as the starting RG next season.
That would be a HUGE "road grading" OL, with Connolly moving back to C. WHAT a run game we could have with the best blocking TE in the league on one side. Withe 1-2-2 formation and 4 solid RB's how could teams defend us. With Gronk, Hernandez. Welker and Lloyd, Brady would have a plethora of options in the passing game, and if they bring in the DBs you need to stop the passing game, they'd get shredded by the run game.
Cannon to RG is what I'm voting for....for next season.
I think that the "best of both worlds" would be for Cannon to show that he can handle RT at a starting level but to be moved inside to RG, with Vollmer being re-signed. That would be a beastly right side. Cannon's ability to shift outside as needed would provide valuably depth.
