Sean Rhyan | Tackle | North Dakota State | 6'5" - 321 lbs.
 


Overview
Three-year starter with the potential to offer team options at either tackle or guard. Rhyan has good size and plays with fairly explosive short-area movements, helping him establish early success getting into run-blocking fits. He's fundamentally sound as a run blocker but a fear of getting beat by speed might play into issues over-setting and giving away too many pressures from inside moves and counters. He has the hand usage, bend and build to transition to guard. Plus, his pass protection experience at tackle combined with dual-position roster flexibility should add to his draft standing and improve his chances of becoming an eventual starter.

Strengths
[list]
  • Has three years of left tackle experience.
  • Offers guard talent with tackle potential in a pinch.
  • Proportional mass with good wingspan and enormous hands.
  • Adequate knee bend in his pass sets.
  • Able to stay square and pop with his punch.
  • Footwork for short or long pull blocking.
  • Operates with good hand accuracy and pop.
  • Accelerates through the down block with force.
  • Hand placement allows for better push and block-steering.
  • Adjusts assignments quickly to moving fronts.[/list]

  • Weaknesses
    [list]
  • Too many false start penalties.
  • Narrows his drive-blocking base.
  • Needs to stay under his pads for better balance.
  • Below-average recovery talent.
  • Punch is a little monotonous and can be timed.
  • Over-setting gets him countered by inside moves.
  • [*]Average arm extension to redirect his edge.[/list]

    Another negative is the level of competition he played against. I would prefer to take him in the 5th or 6th. He is a draft and develop player.

    Guard, who can slide over to T in a pinch. Maybe a RT.

    Remember we lost Lucas Patrick and Billy Turner. Depth guy, potentially more.

    Gute (or someone) really loves the OG/OT tweeners, all of Gute OL draft selections have been between 6'4" and 6'5¼", which suggest they're specifically targeting that. I mean I think some of these guys can certainly play OG I'm the NFL, but can any of them (other than Jenkins) play OT at a high level? We might find out.

    UCLA connection

    Sean Rhyan has been starting the last three years for UCLA, and Packers new offensive quality control coach Ramsen Golpashin was coaching at UCLA the last three years.

    Just saying...

    Other UCLA unselected players in this draft are
    DT Otito Ogbonnia
    S Quentin Lake
    WR Kyle Philips
    OG Alec Anderson


    Another Packers fairly new hire coach is assistant OL coach Ryan Mahaffey from Northern Iowa, so it's thought he should have the inside scoop on WR Isaiah Weston, whom is tall and fast, but used as one trick pony of just go deep that could potentially be like an MVS replacement.

    As a senior advisor we also added John Donovan, whom is from Washington University and so should know TE Cade Otton and C Luke Wattenberg.


    On defense, coach Wendel Davis has been with the Packers for the last three years and before that, he was at the University of Georgia (wonder if Packers might be interested in Georgia defense).

    Also new hire Justin Hood whom is from Kent State so he should know WR Keshunn Abram and QB Dustin Crum even though that's on the opposite.sode of the ball

    Sorta feels like this pick is similar to round 1 with Walker/Wyatt only with TEs instead of WRs. When the run on TEs happened, Gutey just stuck to his draft board and went BPA for a position they wanted to fill. I figured Gutey would go Oline in the 4th so this pick doesn't surprise to much. Looks like he'll be a potential starting RT down the road.

    Edit: With a name like Sean Rhyan, I was expecting a guy who'd look like he could be Notre Dame's mascot, not a Polynesian who's already challenging Bakhtiari for best hair on our offensive line.



    Oh boy!

    Brian Gutekunst: "We certainly feel he can play tackle in the National Football League"

    Looks like he will get a shot at following in the footsteps of a Packers legend at RT. The jersey number tells the story.

    Yes, I do miss Bryan

    Reading some stuff on him. They say his arm length makes him candidate to play inside more than outside. So, he'll probably be Guard.
