How long is too long in freezer to use for jerky?

I've got 3 eye of rounds in the freezer. Life and family things were more important at the time, and a lot of my hobbies took a back seat. They have been in there probably at least 5 or more years. Not vacuum sealed, just doubled wrapped in plastic wrap. Too long in freezer to use or throw them out?
 
As long as they aren't freezer burned, or have an off smell, jerky would be the perfect choice for that meat. Marinade and season a touch more than you normally would, to cover any freezer taint. If it doesn't turn out, it will make great dog treats.
