Or he could simply suck. Imagine that...a third rounder sucking.
Based on multiple reports, he needs to add upper body strength and learn from the best! All indications are he does not suck. There you have it.

Why did we take GC then?

I get your point, however, I do believe that Geron is a project facing an uphill battle to square potential with reality. You could very well be right about him, but, I see him being moved along the line as needed to eventually land as our right tackle. Hope I'm wrong and you're right though!

Said all last year that I like Grier. Not that I am a talent scout but I like his game. I haven't watch Rypien too much.

If this is the case, (Future RT) then the 3rd round pick was clearly missed here. With Nyseke resigned to a multi-year contract I believe, it would have behooved us to target a formidable LG with this 3rd round selection to plug n play imo.

i dont "expect " 3rd round picks to come in and be 1st years starters especially from game one , . statistically that is rare

i usually give 3 yrs for a 3rd rounder

so far top needs are PLAYMAKER OG , WR , TE , CB OLB are starters (TE depending on reed health ) (CB depending on JN )

OG and OLB would be my 1st rounders at this point early as it is

secondary needs C, qb BU safety

Here's our problem, we currently have Geron, Nyseke, Williams and Moses, all tackles, good depth but eventually Nyseke and Geron will push for playing time and in order to get it either Williams or Moses will have to sit. Now, there's a good chance that one of them will play RG and my money is on Geron as they stack up at this moment. In fact considering Lavaou, I'd start him there now. His play couldn't be worse. Did anyone besides see Lavaou get absolutely trampled against the Colts? Yikes!!

There is a lot that goes into deciding whether or not the 3rd rounder you choose actually starts his rookie season. I think it would be fair to say you can target interior lineman much faster than skilled position players to start for your team their rookie season however, that choice is likely after much homework on the player to determine he is a plug n play type player. We had resigned Nyseke so why not target a Guard in that round? Most players take different times to develop and it appears Geron will take some time. With the progressing amount of injuries TW's has seen the past 2 seasons, we may not have time to wait on Geron 3 years.
