People saying he needs to move to RT are clueless. Do they not realize he is only 22 years old in his 2nd season??? If he can dominate a Top 10 pick like Randy Gregory so bad they move him to LE from RE, pretty sure he can hang with guys in the NFL at LT w some experience. I remember one of the Giants DL that was a veteran said Flowers was literally the strongest OL he has played against in his entire career and that his strength is freakish. Once he's a seasoned vet he will be a pro bowler. The Giants organization knows OL, look at their SB line when they beat NE, they were outstanding. Now they have Richberg at C that is arguably the best in the league, Pugh is an excellent LG and Flowers is well on his way.
People just have ridiculous timelines due to expectations. Same thing is happening w Greg Robinson the Rams LT. He started as a LG in his rookie season bc they had Jake Long at LT, but he got hurt and I believe former 2nd rd pick and RT at the time Rodger Saffold III was hurt as well. This forced GR to move out to LT when he wasn't nearly ready. He redshirted at AUB, then started a season each at RT and LT in a run-heavy offense that almost never throws the ball and is very different footwork. Then plays the toughest position on the OL as a rookie after taking no snaps there prior to the season. Struggles there and in his 2nd season due to being injured most of the off-season and not being able to work on his craft. Fast forward to this season and after being healthy all off-season and working in AZ w LeCharles Bentley at his OL institute looks like a completely different player as a 23 year old 3rd year LT. Long story short, Flowers will be a stud in due time.
