Michael Jordan (also Pick 136 like Volson) started 9 games as a rookie and was horrendous.
Volson isn't necessarily going to follow the same path as Jordan, but Jordan is like most 4th round OL - They likely won't start as a rookie, and if they do, they are usually below average.
So all Fred is saying is don't count on Volson comin out guns-a-blazin.

And I'm saying we don't know. there's numerous examples of late RD rookies contributing to olines.

Was KC in trouble last year when Trey Smith started. Was LA in trouble when David Edwards started...

Hell Green Bay had a 4th RD rookie starting at OG

I think these RECENT examples show a good team can "not have a big problem with their oline". If a 4th rd or later interior olineman is starting.

Hell Jackson Carman was a high 2nd rd pick, started 7 games as a rookie and was terrible.
