Tyler Smith OL/OG Tulsa

STRENGTHS
Tyler looks like an athletic offensive guard, player offensive tackle. He has good size and strength and is a powerful offensive lineman. He shows just enough lateral agility and quickness to be moved inside as a guard. Tyler is quick out of his stance and excellent at going out to the second level making his blocks. He has the athleticism to be used as a pulling offensive lineman and on sweeps and screens. Tyler has excellent athletic talent to play more than one position on the offensive line for the team that selects him but as I always say, it takes more than talent to play in the NFL.

CONCERNS
Tyler when playing tackle has never known a penalty that he didn’t want to commit. After being a starting offensive lineman for his college team his techniques are so poor it makes my headache. This sends a signal to me that Tyler is not very coachable and struggles with authority figures. It also sends a signal to me that most authority figures in his football life have enabled this attitude because of his athletic talent. To minimize these issues, I think you have to move him inside.

BOTTOM LINE: 2.67
I love his potential at guard. I love the fact that a very smart center who he can have respect for, will help him to mature. I love his power to run block and his athleticism to pass block. But I don’t love using him as a tackle and I think that using him as a tackle will be his downfall. After he is in the NFL for 4 or 5 years, a team might ask him to move to tackle in a pinch, but he should be a hell of a guard. I believe that Tyler can be a pro bowl guard and one of the best in the NFL.

Brown is a FA after this year. He wants 25 million. LOL. In that scenario his value should be depressed.

They already signed him. But they get him for the whole contract , and he's younger.

Jerry watching all these other teams make trades as he sips his Johnny walker. I’m so sick of this. I’ve never been this down on this team after an off-season before. It’s incredible how little this FO seems to care

Excessive penalties, poor discipline? Sounds like he’ll fit right in! :muttley:

U trust this OL coach to develop him? Everyone on the line outside of Zack has regressed

Steele has developed into a serviceable tackle. Zack and Tyron are getting old. I bet within two seasons Tyler will be our best linemen. That may not be a good thing. Next season could be a disaster.
