Since when was Tyron an OC/OG? Taking an OT in the 1st is justified because it's an "impact" position.

The point is, before we drafted Smith, there were a ton of people who crowed that Jerry would NEVER take an olineman in the first.

This is Jerry's plan,give a big bonus to no name guards who have degenerative health issues and pat himself on the back.

Oh for crying out loud. Leary got a 9k signing bonus and 200k guaranteed.

You do know in 1979, we drafted a guard named Bob McWhiff

The guard/center type tells me their looking for someone in the later rounds as depth.

I believe this team does not view starting guard or center as a need, but rather, backup guard/center as a need. Because David Arkin worked out so well for us.

Seriously? Since I never heard of him, I assume he lived up to his name in camp.

We've drafted a ton of OLinemen in the last 17 years of losing, unfortunately, we're still sorry.

So some decide to take this quote as less than his word?

What do confirmation bias mean?

And there is another thread where Jerry isn't quoted but a reporter gives his interpretation of what Jerry said and people are jumping off cliffs.

I literally LOL'ed reading this.
1. Brandon Magee will beat out Ernie Sims for the backup WILL/MO roster spot.

2. Ron Leary will start at right guard over Bernadeau.

3. Joseph Randle, Terrance Williams and Gavin Escobar will have more combined TD's than DeMarco Murray, Miles Austin and Jason Witten.

4. Bruce Carter makes the Pro Bowl.

5. The starting OL will be Smith-Livings-Frederick-Leary-Free
