Overhyped saw him in a few camps earlier in the year has terrible feet and gets beat off the edge nearly every time. There ranking him off his size alone

Want a prime example of why I'm not a fan of Dylan Jackson to OT?

Well, this kid would be it. :)

IMO Jackson would be at such a disadvantage when you look at the size/power that OT's are walking onto college campuses with these days. A kid who is 235-245 trying to add enough size to play at 295-315 while every other kid being recruited for the position is already there IMO is a career disaster waiting to happen.

Ov do you think maybe his agility just hasn't fully caught up with his growth rate.His 40 time is really good and all spark is good for his size and age.

I do not believe I have made this reference one time on VN, but… Eric Fisher says hi.

Yes, I get that on a VERY rare occasion it works out. How many have flopped trying to make that drastic a move where as 1 makes it big? IMO the % would in no way be in the kids favor. Also doing it at Central Michigan vs the SEC would be very different IMO. How many NFL caliber DL guys do you think Fisher faced day to day at CM while he was working himself into the position? Yes, the final result worked out in that case, but as I said the % says it won't.
