Agreed we've put more resources into RT but in the Bushrod vs Strief argument I think Strief was the better player at his position. As evidenced by Bushrod's short career at LT after he left. In the years that Bushrod and CB started we had to change up the offense to quicker throws and more chips/max protect due to them being a liability.
RG will always be the priority over LG because the RG goes up against the 3-tech. They need to be better in pass protection.
In support of your argument and a change in mine it's easier for Brees to roll out to the right than the left so it makes sense that your RT has to be a pro bowler or pressure from that side can completely kill a big part of your offense.
Touche, thanks to you - it helped refine my thoughts on that angle.
