Depending how you feel about King Dunlap or Russell Okung, LT position has not been a strength since Marcus McNeill's hey day. I believe, I hope, Rawshan Slater makes LT a strength again for this team, with multiple Pro Bowls. Here's to having Slater hold down LT for a decade or more. :Beer1:

None of these players are the greatest LT in Charger history.
Some publications list him as a RT. He may well have been early in his career, but he played LT under Corryell.
I vaguely remember that that transition was common in the NFL back then.
Shields was the RT and Washington the LT on those Coryell teams.
Mount Washington was injured and out in the 1981 AFC championship game& Ted Hendricks obliterated his replacement.
They didn't move Shields over to the LT position (it might have been Chuck Loewen).
