I don't think that's what Hitman was saying at all. The signing of Yates was a surprise and there is no way he can have the offense down in the event of Moore getting injured is all and Doughty already knows the offense. Like most of us, we expected Doughty to be promoted - and he very well still might be, but you wouldn't want another John Beck type situation where you throw a kid into a bad situation in a game as his first start.
