Tobin only said he wouldnt get greedy... Not that he wouldnt take an amazing deal if presented.

His issue has always been that his strengths in the run game couldn’t play up to his draft position. This could be a value pick if signed to a 1-year prove it or cheap two year.

Eric Fisher - easy to say. Riley Reiff will be ok, but we could move him inside and atleast get two good years from Fisher so we don’t have to reach for an offensive lineman - I’m still iffy about Sewell after taking off a year. Trade back and pick Slater or Vera Tucker?

Plenty of other veterans including Kwon Alexander. Fans and teams jump on aging players too quickly. Good but not great can take one further than they think.

Underrated? LMAO

Over rated vs. under rated
So considering the above you are sensing his extreme physical gifts, but not considering the other factors, which the league recognizes and why he isn't/won't be paid like an elite player and still does not have a team.

He has no heart.  No drive. Is full of himself.  And was often injured.  And he won't come here.

Pass

Yeah, if anything Clowney is overrated...

The comment was that Tobin didn't draft any talented OL in Rd 1 or Rd 2.
It's proven to be false, even if the last "good" guy was nearly a decade ago.

When Tobin can successfully draft a starting OL in rounds 1 and 2, within the last 5 years he can stay stuff like that, but not right now.

I would say that they probably are just going to rely on what Pollack says, but if he had a big influence in drafting Billy Price, I dunno if I'd trust him either lol
