That wasn't an argument for Smith that was just a general statement.
Winston wasn't good three years ago when we grabbed him off his couch.
What would have been a better idea would be using those three years to develop a young tackle with potential. Now we just signed him for a 4th year of wasting one of the 53 roster spots we have.
The NFL is absolutely desperate for tackles right now. If he was a solid backup we would have competition for his services.
