Be glad you’re not fans of the Jacksonville Jaguars this year, Pittsburgh Steelers fans. They are about to start their fourth different left tackle this season due to injury. And not only that, that tackle is going to be former New York Giants first-round draft pick Ereck Flowers, one of the more reviled draft picks for that franchise in recent memory.
The fourth-year tackle out of Miami was an instant starter for the Giants during his rookie season, starting all but two games (for which he was inactive) during his first three seasons in the league, but he was widely and routinely criticized for his play, especially in pass protection and in drawing penalties.
