Center, Boston college
Does this cat have experience at Guard?
Strictly a center but who knows. When Jurgens got hurt last year we had to slide Dickerson over because he was the only competent center so this pick makes some sense.

3-year starter at center in an extremely run-heavy offense that used both zone and gap schemes with pro verbiage. A sawed-off prospect with solid athleticism, he gets by with good hand usage and an understanding of angles, leverage and timing. He lacks power, explosiveness and range at the position. I like his anchor well enough, he can hold up vs NFL power inside, and he might be able to get you out of a game in a pinch, but I don't see a long-term starter. Backup center-only for a zone-blocking outfit. He has the makeup to potential rise to starting quality, but the lack of top-end tools tell me it's a safer bet that he's more of a backup long-term.
