Its very early, but his run blocking is among the best we've had at that position in a long time too. Potentially since Jake Long.
Grier took over as the director of college scouting in 2011, so Long was one of the last OL taken prior to him getting his hands on the draft. From 2012 onwards, when he's been the man in control of that operation, we've gotten: Jonathan Martin Dallas Thomas Ja'Waun James Billy Turner Austin Jackson Liam Eichenberg All of whom just weren't any good or were relentlessly injury prone. He also had Laremy Tunsil fall into his lap, then traded him away.
