Jon Jansen: Starter Next Year?

I agree w/that 100%. JJ has looked solid in run blocking the past couple years, but is starting to get beat more in pass pro.

Heyer seems more adept at pass blocking than run. He's got to get stronger to be a starter all year.

I see Jansen as the starter, but we all agree that the team needs some youth on the o line & if a young stud can take his spot so be it. I actually thought Jansen would've made a better LG prospect than Wade, and maybe he could still make the switch as I think he's a pretty good pull/sweep blocker.

If Jansen is healthy & is not our starter in week 1 of 08, I'd say our depth is looking up.
