Cardinals Training Camp Battle: Oliver Ross vs. Levi Brown

Training camp is finally here and FanHouse breaks down the most important position battles heading into the season, team by team.

The battle between Oliver Ross and first-round pick Levi Brown will be an intriguing one in Arizona for a variety of reasons. The fact that the Cardinals drafted Brown is a testament to what they thought about Ross protecting Matt Leinart. However, since Brown is likely to be late to camp, it could give Ross a head start and that may be all he needs to lock up the starting role.

Even if Ross leaves training camp as the starter, it will probably only be for the immediate future. Brown is poised to be a stud at right tackle and it would be a shame if the Cardinals didn't start him as soon as possible.

At the same time, we would all be foolish to overlook Ross. He's back under the tutelage of Russ Grimm, whom he had his best years playing for in Pittsburgh.
