The Specific Ways Tyler Guyton Must Show Improvement

[TwentyOne]

Do you think it was too big of a move for him going from RT in college to LT in the NFL ?

He only played 15 games durung his college career at RT. Its not like he had lot of experience. So picking himwas very very risky.

Moving from RT to LT is not that easy. But the guy has more fundamental problems. Bad footwork, leans way to much, not strong enough, to slow.

After two years in the league you cant use the argument anymore that he was raw and needs time. Guyton is not good and he doesnt seem to put in the necessary work to get better either.

21 NFL starts at LT.

Can’t block.

Both had lower draft grades than Guyton.

They are both All American/All Conf.

You are right Guyton and Steele are amazing. Dallas wasn't 7-10 last year. #7 in points is just incredible. 17-0 is a real possibility. Guyton is every GM's dream LT.

Yup.

Jerry should go ahead and pickup Guytons 5th year option.

What’s the hold up?

#bust

I am not quite sure if you were trying to mock me or if you made that post because you agree.

It's like we just draft willynilly and don't examine anything about draftees. We should've had a vet OLT while Guyton learned the position/game. No way was he even close to ready to play his rook year.

Coaching staff was too confident in thinking they could have him ready based off their previous success

Not even close to what I said.

You said "the tackle position can derail the whole season."

I just asked how. You dodged because you don't have an answer to explain what you said.

His draft profile summary:

Tyler Guyton was widely labeled a classic boom or bust prospect in the 2024 NFL Draft due to his rare physical traits paired with a lack of starting experience. Drafted 29th overall by the Dallas Cowboys, his profile featured immense athletic upside offset by raw technique

or

Overall, Guyton is a young, inexperienced and green tackle prospect with elite physical tools and flashes of dominance that can get him on the field right away. He can eventually bloom into a high-end starter in the NFL, but he will need to be brought along slowly in a conservative scheme and veteran O-line room before bridging that gap.

Overview
Ascending tackle prospect with the traits and tape to project a bright future as a high-level pass protector in the league. Guyton has battled injuries and had limited reps coming over from TCU after the 2021 season, but his flashes have been complemented by increasing consistency. He plays with a high center of gravity and needs to get stronger, but leveraged hand strikes can help overcome those concerns. He should continue to get better as a run blocker but might never shine in that department. Guyton’s value comes with his pass protection, as he has the length, feet and body control to become a human roadblock. He should become a talented starter at either tackle position.

They are both All American/All Conf.

Has ZERO to do with playing in the NFL.

And FWIW, Guyton - 2023: Honorable Mention All-Big 12 Conference. Played in 10 games with nine starts at RT. Missed time due to injury or likely wouldn't have been honorable mention.

Yes, a boom or bust prospect due to elite traits and lack of experience. He has to put it together this year or he is a bust in year 3

People think this soft, lazy dummy is going to turn into Anthony Munoz. It's unbelievable.

how about one of them whiffing on a rusher that puts Dak out for the season?

Oh, he has elite traits, that's not in doubt.

So did Jonathan Mingo

Yup. Players such as Ware and Tyron ruin Jerry's drafting. Neither should've been that good right away.
