HB Blades or Stephon Heyer?

The only reason I'm holding out some hope for Jansen is the fact he didn't need some sort of major surgery this offseason and he should be stronger and healthier this year than he's been in quite some time.

I'm rooting for Jansen always, he's our longest tenured player & always a class guy that plays w/pain. Maybe he's got a comeback in him & he really is healing/adjusting to the injuries of the past few years.

Either way though, this team needs 2 young tackles to add to the roster.

That, coupled with the fact that I don't ever remember him being pushed this hard for a starting spot, may light a tremendous fire under his ass. But if Heyer straight up wins the spot, knowing that Jansen's going to give it everything he's got, I'd say Heyer has earned it and must at least have some talent. It should be a good competition and hopefully bring out the best in both of them.
