Where to start?
The kid hasn't started through the first 3 games. But why not?
Consider the following...
Unanimously considered a top 5 pick in a deep, deep draft.
Also considered best LOT candidate of at least the last 2 drafts. Maybe even going back a decade.
No reports of injury to prevent a start.
Reportedly loves the game.
No reported learning difficulties. Even had good grades in college.
Good attitude. Wants to be the best.
Zero reports of off field issues.
Freakish strength and quickness.
Already a devastating run blocker.
Could be inserted between the experienced Wells and Long.
Never saw a snap at LG even in the Viking blowout. Or on a short yardage running play vs the Cowboys.
Strong need exists for a dominant OG.
Coached by an experienced and very highly regarded OL coach in Boudreau.
So what's going on, here? Given the above, all signs point toward an early start for GRob. Yet he still sits.
Is his pass pro STILL so poor that he can't see the field even for a series or two after OTA'S, camp, preseason and 3 regular season games?
I'm fresh out of reasonable justifications. I really just don't get it.
Like I said, it's an enigma...
