If he's the best choice and wins the job, what's wrong with that?
A lot. It will mean that 3/4 of our starting offensive line will be manned by retread bums. Hart is a bum that got let loose for quitting on his team. He showed us why he was let go over the course of a full season last year. Miller was a bum that got benched on a bad line in Buffalo.
Jerry may be the worst example. Literally every team decided that there was zero room on their roster for him in 2018. This means that if you look at the league's worst o-lineman, ie the most replacement level guys in the NFL, all of them were deemed more worthy than John Jerry of a roster spot, much less a staring job on the depth chart. Even John Jerry himself said that he thought his career was over.
If that's the guy that's our starting left guard, then we're in bad shape.
With any luck, Jerry was correct and he played his last meaningful NFL game over a year ago.
