First-round pick Max Iheanachor said after Saturday's rookie minicamp workout that the coaching staff told him he'll be playing on the right side. During his tenure at Arizona State, Iheanachor only played right tackle.
This likely means Troy Fautanu will move over to left tackle. That's not unfamiliar territory as Fautanu played left tackle over his two years as a full-time starter at Washington. We'll have to see if this comes to pass at OTAs, which begin May 18, but if Iheanachor is going to be anchored on the right side, Fautanu shifting to left tackle is the only logical conclusion.
In other offensive line position news, Gennings Dunker will be at left guard.
