Sure, he's enormous and powerful, but his mobility and agility are crap. His height is going to work against him in pass pro.
If I'm picking for the Bengals, I'm taking the absolute best player available that fits scheme, unless some team really wants to overpay for that slot.
When looking at offensive linemen right now people need to ask themselves. Can this guy open his hips work horizontally down the line and turn back to the line all in a step and a half?
Daniel Faalele is huge and has a nice spring coming out of his stance moving forward but I don't think we want him working horizontally or climbing to pick up a linebacker or defensive back.
