Braxton is just a guy. Good value for a fifth rounder, but there’s no reason not to draft a blue chip LT next draft.
He’s a mid level LT, that is far from just a guy lol. I don’t agree that Poles has really increased the talent particularly well, but Jones is a solid LT and that is difficult to find, shockingly difficult in the 5th+ round.
he was one of the worst pass blockers tackles in the league last year.
This year he's been injured and despite only playing 5 games has 7 penalties. 12th most among tackles. He ranks 42 in efficiency.
he's not mid. He's just a guy.
He’s cleaned up penalties so far. He’s had 6 accepted penalties this season and 4 of them were week 1. He’s actually kind of flipped this year where his pass blocking has been good but run blocking has taken a hit.
He hasn't cleaned up. He's been injured.
He had a good week 1 (if you ignore the penalties) that's skewing his numbers due to the lack of playtime. He had his worst game of the season last week allowing 4 pressures to the lions.

Everyone can make a highlight reel. And it only takes about 15 seconds to see him getting manhandled
