G Jeremiah Sirles signs one-year contract

If Hurney keeps up this ability to bargain bin hunt for depth and pay reasonable rates for big players I may just have to start liking him!! He is a LOT more like Gettleman now than he was but seems like hes willing to pay for big player here and there when we have need, which Gettles got rather obstinate and stingy about at times. I will gladly eat my crow if Hurney has metamorphosed into a legit GM.

For what it's worth from his 2014 Combine Profile - http://www.nfl.com/draft/2014/profiles/jeremiah-sirles?id=2543827

 

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS

 Has a big body with very long arms. Good football aptitude. Has played both sides. Three-year starter. Solid personal and football character. Good soldier who works hard and takes to coaching.

WEAKNESSES

 Limited hip snap and explosion. Average foot athlete. Stiff movement. Bends at the waist, gets his weight over his toes and falls off blocks. Struggles to shadow counters. Does not consistently generate movement in the run game.

DRAFT PROJECTION

 Round 7-Priority free agent

BOTTOM LINE

 Big, scrappy, experienced, long-armed lineman who was miscast at left tackle in college. Lacks core strength to shift inside and could struggle to be more than just a guy.

Just got done reading up on him. Can play all 5 positions on the line. Looks like he’s more of a solid depth guy than a starter.

I’m really starting to think Guard could be the pick at 24 now.

If Quenton Nelson, Will Hernandez, or Isiah Wynn are available at 24, snap'em up.

Especially Wynn who could play any damn position across the line, even as a replacement for Older Brother Kalil if you wanted him to be.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
