Yes, yes he can.

He was a rotational left tackle for GB last year after David Bakhtiari went down.

……….
 

“Although there is value in having experienced depth, Nijman had two opportunities last season to earn the starting snaps outright and failed to do so. It somewhat feels like the writing is on the wall when it comes to his time in Green Bay.

With 13 pressures allowed in only 157 pass-blocking snaps, Nijman ranked 88th out of 135 eligible tackles in PFF’s pass-blocking efficiency metric. He ranked 75th in run-blocking grade. In short, Nijman was far more inconsistent than what the team was hoping for in their fourth-year tackle.

The Packers have also been building their tackle depth with Caleb Jones essentially red-shirting for two seasons, along with having Luke Tenuta, who was on the 53-man roster in 2022 and injured in 2023. Both are on a similar developmental path as what Nijman was on when he first joined the team in 2019 as an undrafted rookie.

This also happens to be a very deep offensive tackle draft class. In Daniel Jeremiah’s initial top 50 draft prospect rankings, eight offensive tackles were listed in the top 31 players.”

 

So he's actually not good at all.

I don't think I've seen a player acquisition posted with a high RAS score that turned out well for us.

Chinn for a year lol

CMC..somewhat

Pretty much everyone we traded or let walk. Barno's a 9+ iirc... but I get your point. The last OT I remember seeing a 9+ on was Greg Little. We all know how that turned out...

Bright side is, this guy is already proven(to an extent). Gives BC some competition and improves our depth.

This is the type of signing I go for. Read his wiki- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yosh_Nijman

 

Packers thought enough to place a 2nd round tender on him in 2023. Got valuable RT&LT snaps. Arod gave him his blessing publicity, he's not known for doing that. 

Seems like a good spot starter and swing guy on game day. 

3rd time I liked Danny boys moves, speaking of which- https://www.packers.com/video/yosh-nijman-gives-a-breakdown-of-his-robot-dance
