rayzor Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 We finally get a Vikings player. He started 14 games last season at left guard, missing two with a knee injury. The 6’6”, 315-pounder was originally the Redskins 6th round pick in 2012 and he spent four years in Washington before spending a season with the Falcons, Bears and Vikings from 2016-18. In addition to left guard, he has played right guard and right tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsMetsDevilsPA Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Monday, Mar 18, 2019 03:27 PM Jets Add Tom Compton to Offensive Line Ethan Greenberg TEAM REPORTER The Jets have signed offensive lineman Tom Compton. A seventh-year veteran, Compton started 14 games at left guard for the Vikings last season. The 6’6”, 315-pounder was originally the Redskins sixth-round pick in 2012 (No. 193 overall) and he spent four years in Washington before spending one season with the Falcons, Bears and Vikings from 2016-18. Compton has played in 85 games over his career (29 starts) and in addition to left guard, he’s lined up at right guard and right tackle. The South Dakota prospect was a three-time Great West Conference selection and became the first Coyote to be drafted since 1986. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENBEAN Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Yes!!!! This is the move I've been waiting for. #SuperBowl Hahaha. Hey. Depth is depth. It’s a good signing right now. I look forward to the draft and the after draft cuts. Many teams will cut the Allen fanecas of the world once high draft choices like Vladimir Ducasse are snatched up.

Adoni Beast Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Very nice. Keep beefing up the Offensive Line. We needed depth at Right Tackle and Right Guard. He has played both + Left Guard. Now bring in a vet c who can also play either guard spot, just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRL Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/tom-compton?id=2532816 OVERVIEW Compton has started four straight seasons at tackle for South Dakota, and possesses NFL-caliber size for the position while possessing good athleticism as well. He is somewhat of an unknown coming from a smaller school, but he has shown the efficiency, smarts, and athletic ability to survive at the next level. He could be selected as high as the fourth round. ANALYSIS STRENGTHS Compton is quick off the ball and can use angles to effectively get upfield on linebackers. He can position and does a good job of not letting his man get behind him. He can get around the line to the second level effortlessly when pulling, and has a technically sound pass set which displays his perfect footwork. WEAKNESSES Compton has limited experience against top-level competition (though he has faced Minnesota and Wisconsin in recent seasons) and could have a learning phase early on. He is a good run blocker but is far from explosive; more of a gentle mover and sustainer than a dominating force. As a pass blocker he punches his hands but can get slightly off balance at times.

tdoublee Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Good depth and experience, especially on the right side. He graded out as average last season so that's not bad at all for a backup. Winters will need to earn that $6.5M starting spot this year or he could end up the chopping block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k-met57 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 from PFF: What went wrong? The interior offensive line. Starting guards Mike Remmers and Tom Compton combined to allow a staggering 77 total pressures.

tdoublee Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I have low confidence that Wisniewski will be an effective center for us, but it would be great to have his veteran presence on the bench along with Compton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
