WalterFootball had him as a mid tier prospect in terms of pure attributes of a Center

http://walterfootball.com/draft2018positionreviewC.php
4th in pass protection
4th in run blocking
5th in speed
5th in zone blocking
3rd in power man blocking
4th in versatility
5th Overall

He was a good but not great prospect until, like...April 15th. then he became a first round prospect. And that's just weird.

Walterfootball from over 6 months before making that list: 

"7/17/17: Ragnow could be in the running to be one of the top center prospects in the 2018 NFL Draft. Over the past two seasons, he hasn't allowed a single sack while taking on excellent competition. As one can expect coming from Arkansas, Ragnow is also a tough run blocker. He is a technician who enters his senior year having made 26 straight starts. As a sophomore, Ragnow was the Razorbacks starter at right guard. He has the size to be a guard or center in the NFL."


Pretty much every site you go to had him rated as a top 2-3 center from the start but he fell down draft boards because of the injury, and even then he was still usually rated round 3. When it was clear he would be ready for the season he moved back up the ranking. 


On top of that it has been one game. He played his first game at OG not center against an very good dline while Price played his drafted position against a weak colts dline. So I dont think anybody should be claiming much of anything about either of these guys until we see more games.
