This pick is a little mysterious, but I have to believe that Thuney is one of Dante's binkies so he will probably be OK. He appears to have very good pass-protection skills and, ahem, good grabby hands, ahem. It looks like holding on every play, but Dante can fix that so he only does the legal holding in the NFL. With his pass blocking skills, I am surprised that the Patriots did want to play him at tackle.
What I don't get is his size and power. He just does not seem that strong and look at his arms; heck, Ed Hochuli is more ripped than him. He is not a road grader--how is he supposed to play guard in the NFL? He does do one thing that John Hannah was always advocating; on running plays, after hitting his guy he looks around for another guy or two to hit.
Interesting prospect, but he may be too nice a guy ....
This is a fun tape because you also get to watch Jacoby Brissett:
