Rookie first round draft pick Brandon Scherff will start at right guard after beginning training camp at right tackle. However, now that spot will be held down by second year man Morgan Moses after a strong performance in camp so far.
With Brandon Scherff being such a high draft pick much is expected of him even and it will be interesting to see how he performs? Playing guard should help Scherff take advantage of his strengths which are his aggressiveness and his power as a run blocker.
Moses has shown improvement in camp over his rookie season and now he needs to display that improvement in actual competition. He has the potential as we saw last season when Moses stepped in against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for an injured Trent Williams.
But his inexperience showed the following week against the 49ers. So what we need to see from Moses now is more consistency and a quickness in moving his feet and staying low. Keep an eye out for this against the Browns.
