so where is the conformation that they want him to play tackle.. cause we had 3 guys play at guard last year for 3 million between them. one of them looked to be the best ol we had until he blew out both knees.... just saying we can find serviceable guards for much less money. He has to be a complete shut down guard and still I'm not sure it's worth that much.

Thuney will play Left Guard. He can play Tackle and Center in a pinch. But I'm 99% certain he will play Guard.
