If Glasgow returns to center, drop Frazier in at LG, Tate at right.
Can that group protect Jared?
I hate that PFF is the arbiter of truth here, but Yode also fails virtually every eye test. I would imagine Frazier is taking considerable reps to get his feet under him, and as of Thursday, he will have been active for a few weeks.
I don’t think we’re cooked by any means, but I don’t see Frazier starting. The man missed all of training camp where practices are so critical for rookies. Practices mid-season just aren’t the same. I’d be stunned if we see him at all unless things get even more dire than they already are. I fully believe they activated him so he could practice with the team and get ready for next year, and potentially a back-up role this year for injury. I don’t think he jumps Yode on the depth chart.
His scouting report says he’s a good pass blocker but needs work in the run game. Even if all he does is upgrade the pass blocking that alone would be big.
I want to be optimistic and say yes…but I literally have nothing to go on with Frazier. I do know that he didn’t allow sacks in college and he must be at least somewhat athletic as he played all five positions at one point.
He made a comment that he could play center and was willing to fo it back during the off-season. I remember reading some of the media projecting him to practice there during training camp.
