Default Sturm's take on Tyron Smith (with video)...

wow....now I know why alot of you are saying this kid isn't ready yet. I am NOT a big tape watcher, and this kid is GREEN. Sure hope we trade down and look at Solder/Carimi/Castonzo instead....yikes.

Yup,
he needs some work, but you can also see he has some great natural instincts. The use of his arms/upper body is impressive. He needs a lot of work on the lower half, legs, feet, but most rookies do.

I imagine by the time he finishes TC and pre-season he could handle RT just fine. I would not have a issue taking him. He seems to be mentally sharp also.
By the end of 2014 Romo will not be starting for the cowboys and the most popular phrase on the board will be..."see I knew we shouldn't have signed him to that big contract".

.....unintentional obviously. Yeah, his athletecism is similar to DB Ferguson of the Jets...it really is. But he needs to hit the weights...wonder if Wojcik could mold him in 4 months? Tall task....

Man, this is a tough one. I could see this kid being the next Fergueson or the next Barron.

He'll get bull rushed and spin moved to death right off the bat, though. You can count on that.


The Washington Redskins.............where former Pro Bowlers go to suck.

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.



Jerry Jones in the draft room is suicide on the football field. The line of scrimmage is EVERYTHING. Something Jerry doesn't understand.
