For you guys watching pre-season - are you judging his performance against backups for how he will do during the regular season?

Isn't that what preseason games are for? It's not like he was playing in the 4th quarter against scrubs. He started and played against the opposing #1 defense. Even a vanilla defense when two lineman go against each other there's a winner and a loser or it's a draw.

Tobin blows. Philly cheered when he came to us and they watched more than a few preseason games. I'm not saying he wasn't worth a 5th or isn't a decent "available" option but Tobin is not elevating our offense.

Didn't they do the same thing when we got Clemons?

Probably could have got Sowell or Webb back and not had to give up a pick.
Webb is suspended but this guy does seem to have Bradley Sowell written all over him.

Hopefully PC/JS/TC finally get it right when it comes to an OL.

And Buffalo fans cheered as well IIRC when we traded for Marshawn Lynch.

So, I'm willing to give this guy a chance and withhold judgment until after the 4th Preseason Game. I have to see this guy on the field first with OUR guys before I start forming solid opinions one way or the other. I just know that based upon what little I've seen of him in Philly's first 2 Pre-season games ... I've seen enough to give me some semblance of hope.
