Per Rotoworld. Well, Ike wasn't terrible at Tackle, he was below average but they make it seem like he is a turnstill...Ike was more like a Castle Gate, things get through every now and then. Alleman at RG though....not sure about that, he couldn't anchor real well in pass protection... But it is instructive to note, if both guys play 16 games hopefully we have a playing time clause in the trade.
Part of the rotation of reps, IMO. Nothing significant. They're right side of the line has struggled really bad this pre-season so they're mixing it up.
According to the reports at chiefs camp, they were placed there with the second team. I wouldn't be surprised if they move up considering how bad the o-line is there.
If they keep Ike at RT Cassell will be on IR by week 6. Just my opinion as he has serious issues with players that can cross his face......or speed. Tackle may not be the best place for Ike.
Ike is no worse than LJ Shelton was for us in 07, granted that is not sayng a whole lot. what boggles me is some quality T's are on the market, Levi Jones and Jon Runyan, at this point they may be Glacial in movement, but at least they have enough experience to keep Cassel from being slaughtered.
The movement may not be the issue. Jones is an injury, and his game has slipped due to the cumulative affects. Runyan is old and is also fighting injuries more often. Both are probably last, last resorts right now.
Well, Runyon does have a track record at tackle, granted even a gimpy JT abused him late last season for 2 sacks and a FF, "but"...Ndukwe? I'd go with Runyon and have a youngster behind him for next season.
