He was a reach, a guy that played a limited number of games, you clearly don't watch the draft stuff about these players, you clearly go off whatever they tell you around your city
(joking with him, here comes the revolt)
They were not going to pick up Guyton on day 3. Perhaps they overshot picking him in the first but he's at the very least a second round pick.

Yeah on draft day Guyton was a late round 1 to round 2 pick. In hindsight though Coog is probably right. After his 2024 tape Guyton is probably a round 3/4 type of guy in any sort of fantasy scenario redo.
He was never expected to be a plug and play guy, even if he stuck at RT. Let's be fair, he was only 3 picks out of being a 2nd Rder
Yep, drafting been a peculiarity of late. I didn't realise that in the Mazi v Bergeron debate, Bergeron went 12 places later (and two O-Linemen in between), are we going off script in 1st Rd as well as the traditional 2nd Rd lottery ticket.
Expectations and need are two different things, we started that kid week one
they clearly should have waited
Guyton would have been picked in the 2nd round. Too much potential to pass on.
no doubt
Reminds me of the early 2010s, the Giants tried to replicate what the Cowboys did on OL.
Absolutely agree, and this is part of the issue. We find guys, develop them, and let them walk too often with the expectation that we can replace them with another cheap contract. Biadasz, Williams, McGovern have all walked in recent years and been quality starters for other teams. Part of the issue is roster building philosophy and the team thinking they can plug and play guys on the interior OL and DL. If you have stability among most of your OL you can get away with that. When you have multiple rookies and an aging Zach Martin its a lot more difficult to do.
Didn't you get the memo, Jerry wasn't spending last year and he threw the rookies in at the deep end. Guyton was hardly a 1st Rd grader and was hardly a top of the round pick.
