What is the big deal about left tackle? Do left tackles earn bigger contracts in the nfl or something? Still has plenty of time to make the switch to left tackle if a nfl payday is what hes worried about. Id be excited just to play, wherever they fit me in as a freshman or sophomore

Yes. Bigger contracts. The premier position for an offensive lineman. I would imagine at 18 if I were 6’5 300 lbs I’d probably have a bit of an ego too. Is what it is

Yes.

Most QBs are right handed and it’s the QBs blindside for most teams.

Most qbs are right handed which would make left tackle the qbs blind side!

They protect the qb backside unless you play for Miami.

So tell me you did not watch The Blind Side where Sandra Bullock gives a monologue about the the evolution of the Left Tackle position being the most valued in the NFL... because he protects your multimillion dollar QB/franchise on his Blind Side.
