Jordan Mailata was a 7th rounder in 2018. Which is just a reminder that talent can be found anywhere in the draft. You have to be good at identifying and developing that value though, and it does take time. It took three years for Mailata to really even see the field. It helps if the fans keep a somewhat open mind. And of course their style of offense works for the offensive line they have (bruising running game).
None of that is to say that someone like Jackson Carman was a good pick. But someone like Matt Lee might be our future Center. I still wonder if kicking Karras out to Guard might give us a our best lineup. At least it could give Lucas Patrick some additional competition.
Idk, I think that asking Karras to carry the water at Guard might be a bit of a disservice to him at this point in his career. He's not getting any younger and has been showing his age when covered by odd defensive fronts.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
