The OL should always be deep enough to withstand multiple injuries. You cannot expect any single player to play 20 games.

I wonder what current and former NFL players would say would be a more difficult move for an LT....

- moving from LT to LG
- moving from LT to RT

I believe that a large percentage of LT's in college move to LG or RT in the NFL.

We might ask, what percentage of NFL starting LG's are former LT's and

What percentage of RT's are former LT's.?
