Will one of the O-Line gurus help me understand why he washed out in Cleveland? It's certainly not for lack of giving him a chance virtually everywhere on the line... I don't mind that we gave up on him.Every time he was in I recall cringing... What is the explanation for his success in LA? Thanks

Rams have a QB that makes quick decisive decisions and he’s surrounded by guys doing their job in a good scheme 

For the bulk of it - this right here.

Player development is also a big deal.  Improving your strength and frame in the off-season.  It's incredibly possible he simply improved at a rate higher in the LA off-seasons than in Cleveland to now be a solid IOL.

Dorsey come up with other options to account for the failure with Corbett. (G/C/T)

In addition to signing Eric Kush, the team's current starting right guard, he also made a pair of trades to acquire Wyatt Teller and Justin McCray. Teller was from the same class as Corbett, was arguably the better prospect and the Browns paid very little to get him.

Drew Forbes was also ahead of Corbett before having season ending surgery
