Not saying it was a completely lost year, but it wasn't time spent at OT.
And he started this previous season at OG too.
So he's not really been groomed at OT except toward the 2nd half of this past season.
As for how he grades, Carman actually graded out at a 67.2 pass block rating this past season according to PFF. Only 1 sack allowed in 113 PB snaps.
If you look back at his 2021 grades, he did substantially better at LG/LT than he did at RG.
He had 62 pass block snaps at LG/LT, and he didn't allow a sack and only 2 total pressures.
He has a potential to start at RT this year, as Collins is on the mend.
If Carman is playing well until Collins is back, they might decide to keep rolling with Carman.
So I think it's definitely possible Carman could factor into their long-term plans and they only may be looking at needing one new starter after this season, or possibly no new starters if they do re-sign (or tag) Williams next year.
I do not see Carmen ever having success playing on the right side of the center, be it guard or tackle. Interesting watching Tayler Lewan today state that he would be a horrendous RT, this from a 3X pro bowl tackle, some guys just cant play both sides.
