This thread is less about his draft position and more about the futility in how we use him that makes any blocking skills he has completely useless. Since he never catches a pass, the defense doesn’t have to account for him so his blocking isn’t really a factor. As someone said earlier, when he is in the game it’s clear we are most likely going to run the ball.
Kind of like running play action without ever actually running the ball. Nobody is going to fall for it, so there is no point in doing it.
