Royale with Cheese Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I'm guessing Sam Young is out now. I don't think he was very good at all when he was here.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) Always great for a local kid to get his shot. He also has position versatility, which helps. I had no idea The Little Irish had a player at ND. Aquinas is a great high school program. Edited August 6, 2019 by C.Biscuit97 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I wonder what the signing of a guy like Jones vs, say, Sam Young, who has started a bunch of games in the NFL, means. Does it mean that they have faith in Connor McDermott or De'ondre Wesley to be a capable swing tackle? Does it mean that they envision Ford at RT once the injured guards return, which will push Nsekhe back to swing, thus not necessitating any major additions at tackle? I can't help but read into what this signing might mean... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help but read into what this signing might mean... I assume they want to look closer at Jones to see what his upside is, since he just recently moved to OT. Sam Young is a more known commodity, but when you are rolling the dice on a guy who most likely won't make the team, it is worth gambling on upside.

It means they are going to use this guy as a blocking sled for 3 weeks and then cut him. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an interesting thought. Because I just sat next to Jarron Jones about 3 weeks ago on a flight from Chicago to Dallas. I'm guessing - just guessing - that he was getting an invite to the Cowboys camp. And, yes, it was in first class. The man is huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
