He is either going to be one damn good G or he might be the next rd1 T flop.

His biggest strength is he is a athletic freak. And his ability to pull and get to even third level blocks is crazy. But in pass protection left outside his footwork is bad. He's off balance alot and ends up on the ground way too much. Atleast 2 or 3 times a game.

But the power, technique, and just the want to hit people would make him a monster at guard. A skinny Larry Allen type in how they attack. He's the type of OL you want always going forward, not out on a island. Athletic defenses are the ones who give this OL interior fits. Because mcconnor wasn't very athletic. Imagine teaming him up with Tyler on the left side. Then you got Martin and tyron/Steele.

On a note on Tyron...

I've actually been thinking bout this. It's a little bit of a conspiracy theory lol.

Maybe Dallas talked to Tyron and told him. Steele is the future we're gonna give you a shot to compete in TC to start on the right side. But you gotta earn it, you've made alot of money and missed alot of time. You earn it and you earn the money. He deserves a chance to start. They kinda did the same with Larry, that last yr was just hard to watch. But they threw him out there.

So while they might say Tyron is the starter going in, that could just be more respecting what he's done for this team. Cause when he's on the field he's top 5 tackle at worst. But he's just missed more as time has gone. And I think this whole playing time incentives are proof of them preparing that he could be beat out by Steele.

Jones gave up nine pressures all of last season. It's kind of like Torrance... I'll believe his pass blocking is an issue once I see it's an issue.

You couple that with top shelf, dancing bear athleticism, and that's a franchise LT all the way. Yeah, Jones only started for one year in college but he's already shown me everything I need to see.

One of my favorite targets in the draft due to OT / Flex and being a stud.

But yea, he’s a pipe dream.

Torrance hasn't had an issue giving up sacks. It's just he doesn't move well and someone like Avila will give you more in our scheme because of how he can move.

Am I the only one who feels that moving Jones or Wright inside hinders them? I feel they can be elite stud tackles for 10+ years

Even quality interior O Lineman got drafted early last year.

Jones should be LT.

Wright might be a better OG Torrence...At OT he is RT only.

I don’t even see the point of talking about Jones. He won’t be available. Period.

What if you got Broderick Jones at #26 than Avila at #58 how would you feel ?

He might. Some mystery dude named "Williams" has shot to the top of the draft boards. Most mocks are now outdated.
