Heyer was mediocre at the very best. He had help on most plays where the defense was expected to bring a big rush on the QB. Heyer MIGHT develop and become a journeyman some day - - or maybe you've already seen him at his best. He's not someone to build your future OL around.

THANK U! I have been amazed at how much faith people have put in a undrafted guy who showed why in Seattle less than a month ago. Honestly, I will be very worried if we go into the '08 season with JJ the starter and Heyer the backup. It's another recipe for disaster. We need to draft (preferably) a stud at tackle who can compete with JJ as the starter and meanwhile lock Heyer in a weightroom for, say, 12 to 18 months. Seeing that kid get lambasted every down by Kearney was damn hard to watch (and left a bad memory after watching Kearney get completely shut down by GB's right tackle).
