While the defense of the national champion Georgia Bulldogs gets the majority of the credit, the offense had several pro-caliber prospects as well. Jamaree Salyer had a stellar campaign paving the way in the run game and protecting his quarterback. A 2021 2nd-Team Walter Camp honoree, Salyer allowed only two hurries and didn’t allow a single sack all season according to Georgia’s team website.
Salyer has played up and down the line in his time in Athens, lining up at left tackle and right guard this past season, and spending time at right tackle and left guard previously. The only position he hasn’t tried in a game is center. If there is one thing the Cowboys tend to favor out of backup offensive lineman, it is positional flexibility. They don’t have the healthiest of offensive lines in the NFL so it’s not uncommon to see backups get significant playing time throughout the season. Clearly Dallas would have a place for Salyer in the lineup at some point if he were selected.
Where might that be and what does his ceiling look like?
