Seems like the position goes to an existing member of the line. Even a physical marvel like Peat didn't jump straight into the job. He played it in spot situations while Yankey held the position. Once he was ready, Yankey moved back inside.

I think one of the great things about the Ogre packages is how it prepares so many lineman to play in the future years. It would be hard to believe that next year's LT isn't among this year's short yardage players.

I think Tucker has a shot simply because if there is a better athlete among the alternatives, they would have been pushing him for playing time at RT this year.
