Award winner at 3 OLine positions at Alabama and wasn't ever able to start a game for us and wasn't able to start in three years. Underwhelming pro career after a stellar college one.
 
Bust or not I thought Barrett Jones would become a solid NFL player. I would call it a kinda wasted pick. That statement is considering he was a 4th rounder when the Rams roster had lots of holes.

Whether you would consider him the definition of a bust or not, Barrett Jones was a wasted pick.

Tends to happen more than not once you get out of the first 3 rounds. Definitely aren't the last team who's going to be saying that about any of their 4th rounders.

4th round picks aren't busts. I really only consider the first or second day picks as bustable. That's just me though.

I believe any draft pick that doesn't contribute is a bust. The 4th rnd and later picks just hurt a lot less.

@Boston Ram ...you may have missed the disclaimer "while holding his point" which should have included "of attack" dude was always missing blocks and getting blown off the LOS....while definitely not ideal, I could see were they think he may improve....May...improve...nowhere near that yet...but IMO, he was as good as Barnes or Jones in this area....and since he can run a lil bit, I guess I'd take him over...whoever was the 2nd/3rd guy....trust me, I feel ya...these guys need to really improve in 9 days....Seahawks are wounded...They'll want to apply max pressure on Foles..and remove all running lanes...O-Line can win that game alone by being stout...at the point of attack.(y)

Thanks for the clarification. So as usual I agree with you lol! I was getting worried my old age was effecting my eyes.

Surprising B Jones was cut. This year was the first time he's really flashed a little in pre-season.
 
Jones getting cut opens the door for Rhaney if they go with 10. Wichmann looks like the 9th. I thought Jones was slightly better but at this point there is no upside and at least there is some with Rhaney. No sure either would or will be a factor anyway.
 
Tired of fans throwing out the term "bust" whenever a draft pick gets cut. Well guess what, Jones was beat out by a seventh rounder, yet those same fans won't say what a great pick Rhaney was. Oh yeah, had he been cut, they would call him a bust too I guess. I mean some still refer to Rok Watkins as a bust and he was a 5th rounder.

And I thought none of them outshined the others except Rhaney in run blocking. They all had bad moments pass blocking.

I thought Rhaney was the worst run blocker of them all. None were great I agree but Barnes looks like he can hold his own and unfortunately that's all we can hope for. I'm not overly concerned with Barnes starting. He was pretty good overall
