There are only so many players that get a first round grade in drafts and its usually only around 15 to 18 players then you have players that have first round grades for specific teams for instance Darnell Wright
As a tackle Darnell Wright isn't as scheme versatile. He is not going to be the backside tackle trying to stay in the hip pocket of the 3tech moving laterally in a wide zone system. He has position versatility that he could step inside to guard for some wide zone teams but that will hurt is draft stock with those teams.
In the Bengals offense Darnell Wright is a 1st round grade prospect. The power/gap lets him use his size and explosiveness to move vertically and he will be put on a track as a puller instead of him reacting to a defender in space. As a pass protector the quick release of Joe Burrow will be huge plus against his less than stellar reactive athleticism but his power and very experienced advanced hand counters will be on full display.
