Kevin Colbert: Okorafor Scouted As Better LT, Guesses He Would’ve Beat Out Banner Last Year On Left Side

That the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to have a vastly different offensive line this year is one of the stories of the Summer. While there are still position battles to work out, the expectation is that there will only be a few hundred carryover snaps from last season in which the players who will start played in their respective positions.

That includes the tackle position, where Chukwuma Okorafor started 15 games during the regular season last year at right tackle. This year, however, he is expected to start at left tackle; and from the Steelers’ perspective, this is a good thing.
