He has sub-32.5" arm length, which only Braden Smith has among all starting OTs.
I wasn't really considering Mauch as an OT because of the length limitation, but maybe he could find a way to buck the trend and be effective still outside.

I don't like using a 2nd rounder on a depth piece, though. Much more likely in the 3rd + if we get an extra pick (trade down/Jonah trade). But Bergeron/Mauch could be worth it because it could allow me to carry 9 OL instead of 10 and open up a roster spot elsewhere (DE, DT, TE, S). And likely bump a guy I am not thrilled about being on the roster (Adeniji, Ford, Smith).
IMO Mauch is IOL as well, but he is good enough to play some RT. I can see Jonah staying this season, and I can see Mauch being capable of solidly backing up RT, OG and OC. Very nice piece to have on the roster.
