Yosuah Nijman had one of the highest athletic scores in the draft, and I was very surprised he went undrafted. I had him as a day 3 player. He probably has the best chance to make the team out of the group we signed because our depth at tackle is somewhat lacking.
from what I've seen, he seems like he's incredible on shift blocks (he wants to move) but not quite as good on straight-up bouts.
we could definitely use O-line depth, and I hope he pans out.

Has a good write up on him and 11 minutes of his highlights. Big dude with quick feet but doesn't look like he knows what to do with them. Takes a lot of false steps and odd shuffles. Looks like he has all the physical skills but needs some coaching.
I like it!
I'm honestly shocked teams like PIT or NO did not grab him, they coach up Oline talent like crazy.
I like to think our ability to coach OL talent aren't too shabby either.
