Thought it would be worth mentioning that there is a growing likelihood that he may have two rookies covering his blindside this year.
RG Davin Joseph appears to be pushing "incumbent" Jeb Terry for the starting job. (I say incumbent with quotes because it was Mahan's job last year, but he's a center and took it over because Terry was hurt. He has only been practicing at Center this TC).
RT Jeremy Trueblood will start friday against the Jets, and with a strong showing, may have a real shot at unseating incumbent Kenyatta Walker. While Trueblood is seen as the future at RT for the Bucs, 'Yatta admittedly impressed and outperformed expectations last year (which weren't very high). He's been hurt a bit though...
There also may be a new starting Center if Mahan beats out Wade (entirely possible, although I have heard no such news).
In all, how do you guys feel about a pair of rookie potentially guarding his blindside, and how will this, if at all, affect your projections for him as a QB heading into this year?
The biggest question mark heading into camp is that RT position, and while there is very solid depth along the OL this year, the question is who will start? There have even been whispers that Terry may move to RT and Joseph starting at RG....
