I had no idea who Tony Hills was so here's what Google tells me:

6'5", 304 lbs., 30 years old.

This will be his seventh season.  He's played 13 games, started one, and has played for eight different teams.  Had injury problems in both high school and college.  Did not play at all in the 2013 season.  Rotoworld has him listed with the ability to play guard and tackle.

From the looks of it, he seems to be a camp body.

Eh, not what we need.  But whatever.  

With Martin, this buy time to get into camp and see what shakes out with other rosters. If the FO didn't panice last year, for better or worse they won't panic this year either.  Besides, I really don't think they had any major expectations of Martin.

Yep, likely just a camp body which is fine at this point.  Camp starts in a week and we needed a body at OT.  You can bet we'll be watching the waiver wire as teams trim down to their 53.  There's a pretty good chance that there's a backup OT on our final 53 who isn't currently on the roster.  I sure hope we aren't putting any eggs in the Nate Chandler basket.  That experiment has thoroughly failed.

    • Adding on to that - I know I read from some reporter that Dak Prescott's mentality is extremely fragile. Get in his head, and he loses focus and confidence. Per that reporter,  anytime a big game comes up, he starts to have the jitters and hasn't seem to overcome that slump. Dak would be an upgrade over Bryce as things currently stand. But Dak has not proven he can play in games that matters without choking. Bryce hasn't had the chance to show anything in the NFL, so nothing much to say there. But based on his history, he's done well in college in the national championship. Theoretically he should be more confident in big games if he gets to that point. For that alone, I'd rather keep rolling the dice on Bryce or set our sights higher. I wouldn't touch Dak with a 10 ft pole given his choking habits.
    • Same here brother, love Xavier I think he’s gonna become a quick fan favorite of the team. He already has gone viral for his country accent, we have no face of the franchise currently outside of maybe Derrick Brown in terms of media attention. I would not be surprised if in the next 4 years Xavier becomes that media darling we used to have in the 2010s with Luke, Cam, Josh Norman, CMC, etc.  
    • I haven't been high on any of the WRs we drafted in the past.   This kid though is someone I actually wanted. I have a feeling we finally hit big with this kid. I'm expecting him to be a DJ Moore caliber WR.
