He's got Starter Potential. Only question, will he show it??

Where on Earth does it say he has starter potential? I have read as much a I can about this kid and all our other draft picks. There is nothing that says he has starter potential.

I'm just curious...

And if it's because our really bad o-line, then I see what you did there.

Everyone has their own Opinion, Starter Potential is mine. I watched him at GA, he has the Skill & Potential.

Nothing to do with out O-line

Can you explain to me why you think he has starter potential? I have never seen him play.

Wish I could give you the Video from YouTube (Not a Highlight Vid. Play by Play Type Vid. But was Removed due to the Uploader not giving the copyrights to the People -___- )

But he's a Good Player, definitely could shore our O-line up. Wish I had a few Georgia Fans on here to back me up on this

As long as we're talking 'hoping' and 'potential', I hope he's in the HOF in 25 years.

Arian Foster didn't have a shot. Jamarcus Russell did.

Nothing's for sure either way.

Tell them that Grigson thought he had starter potential and you are going to side with him. There are a few articles where Grigson stated that Anderson had great feet , good enough to be a stud LT , but needed a lot of "seasoning" to reach his potential. He went on to say that they thought he was a great pick in the 7th round. I read his words to mean that he could end up to be nothing or a quality starting tackle in the NFL. So if he doesn't develope , you lose a 7th , if he does you have the steal of the draft. Remember that he spent time in college "messing around " on the defensive side of the ball. So he lost some developement time ...

I don't think they have any intention of playing him as a Tackle. He's listed on the Colts website as a Guard.

On the depth chart he's listed as the third string guard behind Mcglynn and Tony Hills.

I think the steal of the draft was TY Hilton. He's just been way better than I thought he would be in the receiving game. All he needs to do is work on his consistency.

Tarik Glenn played guard his rookie year and he was a first round pick. But , yes I'm sure they have no intention of playing at tackle this year. I was just giving a synopsis of what Grigson had to say about him. Heck , I'm not sure he'll even end up to be a viable back up guard , eyt alone a future starting tackle

If Anderson has great feet, then it would be a waste for him to play guard. Maybe he gets groomed for Justice's spot. Big guys with great feet are hard to come by.

Anderson is not that great of a Tackle. He was okay at Georgia, but not great. At almost 350 pounds it seems wiser to play him at tackle.

Again I don't think we are going to know much about Anderson this season. He's a rookie who has had no camp and no OTAs and only limited practice. He might get time by the end of the season but I don't think he's going to come in and be a game changer or frankly even win a starting job from McGlynn or Reitz right now.

I really look at him and Chapman as more bonus picks in next years draft or another way to look at it as a college that got kids enrolled a semester early so they can start working out with the team. They might be able to help a little this year but we probably going to be able to fairly judge either till next season.
