I hope Snyder isn't our best next guard!
You could win the SB with Snyder at G. At the very least he is a known commodity. I hope one of the youngsters is better but you just never know until you see them in a game. Snyder is very serviceable.
Besides the measurements below that measure Snyder lack of quality, let me put this in perspective.
Chilo Rachal replaced him on the Niners. Now Rachal has replaced
Snyder on the Cardinals.
Link that states that Snyder was one of the worst linemen on the very worst offensive line last year
https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2013/01/28/ranking-the-2012-offensive-lines/
Summary: Just a truly horrible offensive line. The Cardinals had made progress in recent years, but losing Levi Brown and then deciding Adam Snyder would prove an upgrade at right guard came back to hurt them in a big way.
Link that lists Snyder as the worst free agent guard

Grant Cohn refers to the Pro Football Focus rating of offensive guards listing Adam Snyder fourth from the worst. He's 60th out of 64.

To those of you who believe he can give us insight in the Cardinals, the Cardinals have a new coach, offense and system
To those of you who say he know our system, he played for
Singletary.
