I dont know if I have ever heard of a team rotating OL. I have posted about it before, but really it boils down to chemistry. The OL needs stay constant. It is easier for them to react to a def when they know the tendencies of the guy next to them. If you have to think about what the guy next to you is going to do it may be to late by the time you react.
I do agree that Brown is not penciled in as the starter. He got reps at OTA's and will likely get alot of the reps in TC and pre season. That still doesnt mean he starts against Pitt. Salaam doesnt need as many reps and this is actually better for him if it turns out brown needs to ride the pine because he will be fresher and less beat up. Down the stretch last year Salaam could barely walk off the field after games.
