I'm sure Belichick will soon be praising Gilbert as one of the best right tackles in the game today...with a big shiteating grin on his face

Sure looked that way today. Not sure who played worse. Gilbert or Beachum. Zivco has it right on this one. OT is a huge concern going forward. Wondering if they clean up their sloppy and get better. I think that's all we can hope for at this point. Is there a replacement for either on the roster?

Nothing can be done about Gilbert. He's here to stay with that new C2. I want to say get a "legitimate NFL" LT and slide Beachum inside to LG and this OLine would be fixed. If only it was just that easy. :lol:

This organization simply cannot evaluate offensive line talent. They just can't.

Look at the bright side, though. At least Gilbert didn't roll up on a fellow teammate forcing him out for the season.

I wonder if Munchak was consulted about the deal.
