Looks like Troy and Mason could permanently move to the left side + other Steelers news 5/20

Sorry I didn't see this.

I started a similar post with different source.



Salute the nation
 
Even if healthy by the start of the season, Broderick really has an up hill climb. If Fautanu is going to stay at LT and it seems it’s going in that direction, and with Jones’s prior struggles at RT, I think he has a hard time starting over Cook or Iheanachor.
 
Like the way Daylen is getting tested early and the staff’s willingness to shuffle the deck to get the aces in their places on the OL.

Gotta love every report I’m hearing about Bernard, he is the anti-Lemon. He could easily become a fan favorite as he abuses opponents’ slot corners and/or 3rd CBs.

Should be fun to see some of the competitions unfold in the preseason.
 
Jones may be the one needing to move inside when he comes back. Maybe, just maybe, he's not cut out to be a T in the NFL, but he may be pretty good moving inside.
 
So I wouldnt read too much into the moving around yet. Moves in otas don't often translate to the regular season. They can, but staffs.. particularly new staffs, tend to experiment to see who is strongest where before proper camp practices start..

I think they are just looking at what their best options are for everyone.. not just forcing them into a position... which is a great thing...

Normally but the Broderick ongoing situation changes the grand scheme of things . I think you will see a different starting 4 positionally .

Normally....sure. But Mccarthy said he wanted to get the left side stabilized immediately, and that's why the changes were made.
 
troy was a natural lt at washington thier heavy pass attack led by penix when they lost the bcs game to michigan, can move him to LT and if Jones will miss time it gives Dunker a inside on starting at LG and perhaps jones can compete at LG.
