My opinion is tie between him and Wiggins. We probably need interior OL more than DL right now but Wiggins is a rare breed. Height, strength, athleticism from basketball background.

One of the biggest fallacies in ranking is undervaluing interior OL. Ask any QB which is more disruptive, pressure on the edge or up the middle? Which is more important to a run game, lanes between the tackle or setting the edge. The other is the value of a quality center that can make line calls. Cush was more valuable than he gets credited because he not only physically, but mentally set the pace for the OL.



Rankings are based on NFL draft projections (As silly as that is), so that's why they dont put a premium on interior OL vs. OT when ranking.

I know and the old concept is the "franchise OT" which certainly is a necessity, but with the future of QBs being more mobile and offenses moving to spread concepts I think value across the OL is more evenly distributed.
