Guyton vs Parsons

Usually the way it works in preseason drills. It's more about working on technique than going all out. That's good for Guyton because he needs the technique work.
Absolutely. It's an excellent sign for Guyton, but it's important to keep these things in perspective as well.
 
If he could step in and just be good and not get Dak or whoever are qb is killed, I will be happy. I hope he does become elite. Has big shoes to fill and hope us fans can be patient with him
 
Parsons isn't attacking anywhere close to 100%.

Either he realizes that it doesn't do anyone good to embarrass a rookie or the coaching staff has actually requested that he dial it down just a little for training purposes.

I think that Guyton is doing well and he shows a lot of promise but let's not raise expectations to an unrealistic level.
It reminds me of some offseason blurb out of Bears practice years ago. They had to take Khalil Mack off of the practice field because he kept blowing up their run plays. And we know that Parsons is on that kind of level.
 
Low effort… You said it. That is not at all what Parsons looks like in a real game.
Parsons' game is not going head to head with DTs. His game is to use his speed to run around them before they can get set. I would not expect him to beat Guyton when he runs right into him. I want to see him try to get inside or outside. It will give us a good view of Guyton's feet and quickness. He is a big dude, I don't see many players beating him straight up. NFL DEs use many different moves to set up OTs.

Guyton should own Micah if he is able to lock up on him.

Let's not go overboard. Parsons clearly wasn't going full speed and won't be until the season starts. I'll prefer to see how Guyton holds up against Miles Garrett before bringing out the Champagne..

lets be real here
If Garrett is healthy he is going to get the best of Guyton
no matter how physically talented Guyton is a rookie
 
Guyton settling in at LT right from the start would be a big thing for this OL. The trickle down effects of him not hitting the ground running are pretty big. Edoga is not the answer. If Edoga is your starting LT there is a real possibility a few games into the season they'll be contemplating moving Tyler back outside.

But if Guyton can settle in, it allows Tyler to just stay at LG and that should help Hoffman inside.

if Edoga is starting at LT Dak needs to roll right every passing play and have Zeke watching his back on that play
