He’s a big boy, only just turned 21 this April. LG should be an upgrade.

Short ride from Crowley, that is about 60 miles, a little over an hour depending traffic.
I guess to some it is short.

But better than a long flight from somewhere. Get him started on the no holding and better hand and foot work right away. Show him Larry Allen film.

 

[Vinnie2u]

He does look good getting off the bus... That's a plus...

Hell, bring in Larry Allen.......

Just turned 21.....think about that
Tyron Smith was also pretty young when was drafted.....

 

[Runwildboys]

Every time I see "arriving at the Star", I picture him on the 50 yard line.

Hopefully Tyron and Zack put baby bear under their wings…

He brings that Erik Williams nasty

He will bite a knee cap....

Based on what evidence? because he's "big"? He had 12 holding penalties against Tulsa competition last year and by all accounts is extremely raw technique wise....he has potential but I am not even sure he'll be a starter for awhile.

60 miles... little over a hour? not many people drive under the speed limit in Texas...

our run game improved the second he got off the bus.

he's one of the best run blockers in the class.

Last time everyone said our late 1st round pick sucked in historical fashion we got Travis Frederick, hoping this is the same.

I don't know how to link it (or if it's even allowed here) but there is an interview with Smith on NFL.com from Good Morning Football a couple weeks ago.

This kid has the mentality you want and even the GMF crew (for what it's worth) said teams were slotting him as a late 1st round/early 2nd round selection. Also they had some better highlight clips of him than I have seen floating around.

thats who he reminds me of with his physical style of play.
very excited about this cat.

 

[Preoccupied]

I want him to do well and I want him to learn lets give the kid his chance if he fails its on him not taking onboard what will be given to him.

We just might be able to block Jordan Davis after all...
