But this grading is him as a RT. He will have to switch everything to play a position he’s never played.
He played LT, not RT, from everything I’ve read. Mims and The kid from Alabama only played RT

The fact Arnold was on the board is case in point we don’t draft BPA…he was a top 15 lock and we decided to take a bottom of the 1st round player.

If he was a top 15 lock...he would have been drafted in the top 15.

Teams projections are messed up in the draft all the time, your facsimile states that probability and cause are an actuality. That fact means you can explain all anomaly's with generalities; like your statement. The fact that he had a chance to be drafted in the top 15 is a fact and should be treated as that according to all available datasteams. I could say however, he is the best available of all available players in a set that has been distinguished from a mean of available experts but not all experts in any/every eventuality in existence. Basically a top 15 without parameters, has an infinite amount/variation of outcomes and can't be disputed. He is right and you are right but because there is no actual top 15 list that is set in stone means neither is right and neither is wrong. Opinion is a funny thing.

Most of us were wrong, but I had Barton at 24. Happy with the trade back tonight, as long as we don't screw it up tomorrow.
Yeah a lot of idiots on here thinking they're draft experts.

I projected Guyton to us in the 1st round.

I said it was either him or Mims.

And I got it right.

Technically we both got it correct.

A lot of people said Barton would be gone.

Word is that Pittsburgh had Barton as the pick but OT/OG Troy from Washington fell into their laps.

If Troy would fell to us I think he was the pick.

Nick at the draft show said someone texted him and said that when Pittsburgh took Troy it was a throw the pen moment which meant they really liked him.

Tyler Guyton OT Oklahoma​


by Drew Boylhart • March 15, 2024​



STRENGTHS
Tyler is a big, strong, long-armed, athletic Right Tackle. He plays with a nasty attitude and is one of the better run-blocking tackles in this draft. He comes off the line when run blocking, with the quickness, leverage, and power of a smaller offensive lineman. He has the quick feet and foot speed to be used on sweeps and screens because of his athleticism to block in open space. Tyler is excellent at going out to the second level to make blocks and is adept at keeping his balance and finishing his blocks. He also has the talent to be an excellent pass-blocking tackle. Tyler is smart and handles stunts well because he doesn’t panic. He shows the needed athletic talent to recover when he gets beat, and the long arms that help him to frustrate and control his opponent. Tyler has the talent, and mental makeup to be one of the better right tackles of this draft.
CONCERNS
Because of Tyler’s aggressive mentality, he lacks patience when pass blocking and this leads to mistakes. He drops his hands a lot and catches his opponent and that bad habit will have to change for the next level. I’m sure Tyler will work hard at improving his pass-blocking techniques and becoming more consistent and patient. I have no doubt he will.
BOTTOM LINE: 1.97
Tyler is new to the offensive side of the ball, and his ability to adapt as quickly as he has shows that he has the work ethic to continue to improve. That being said, Tyler is strictly a right tackle, and don’t draft him thinking because of his athleticism, he can be moved over to the Left side…It’s not going to happen. He is still learning the right tackle position and at the Senior Bowl practices they tried him over on the left side and Tyler struggled with the footwork, big time. As I stated before, Tyler is new to the offensive side of the ball and is still learning to be consistent with the footwork on the right side, so asking him to learn the left side would be too much to expect of him. Tyler has the potential to be a pro–bowl right tackle for the next ten years. Just give him some time to correct and become more consistent.

Hopefully he can transition seamlessly to the left side. He as protecting the blindside of a left handed QB. So he has the intelligence. Just needs to adjust his footwork.
my only concern for him,most can make the change seamlessly to the other side but few guys will struggle.
