Updated look at the oline.

I will obviously be unhappy, but it's not for the reason you'd think.

 

The reason I wouldn't like the picture being painted by this article is that it marginalizes Williams. Are the Bears giving up on him already? A first rounder they've tossed around? A guy who has been hurt? I think it should be Williams and Carimi at the tackles. This plays out pretty easy for me. Carimi was drafted to play LT. Period. End of discussion. It has even been confirmed by the media and the coaching staff. So that leaves RT open. Webb was rated the worst offensive lineman on the Bears, and maybe the worst in the NFL, last year and gave up a ton of sacks. The only reason he saw time was Williams's injury. I have way more faith in Williams at RT than Webb. The OL should be:

 

Carimi - BLAH - Kreutz - BLAH - Williams

 

Just because the OGs suck doesn't mean a former first rounder should be used as a utility lineman. The solution is to draft or sign competent guards so the square peg doesn't get shoved into the round hole.
