He's been playing on the D-line and is listed as a D-lineman on the roster on the LSU website now. D-line was his natural position in HS.

He’s not actually playing DL. Kelly was asked that in a presser and said he was still playing center but he’s been dealing with an injury. If Zalance Heard is ready to play like Campbell and Jones were then all the more better. You play the best 5. Good problem to have.

I think that’s because we are so incredibly thin at interior DL. We basically play 2 1/2 guys there now and we haven’t gotten into the meat of the SEC schedule.
I know they liked him at a camp and thought he projected as a Center at this level, and he may very well wind up there. But other options may present themselves and he may stay at DL. One thing is for sure and that is he must be one helluva football player if they’re comfortable moving him around like that as a true freshman. So no matter where his future lies, I agree with OP that he’s very important to the future of this team. And if we have a couple of unfortunate injuries, he may wind up being really important to this year’s team.

He will be a center. There is zero doubt at this point.
And I agree with OP that he'll be very good at it.

He played on the OLine a lot in his 4 years at LCA. He knows how to block too.
