Furthermore olave will run a low 4.4, faster than either Jeudy or diggs... also u mention  production. Ohio state rotates 6 guys regularly... no one has great production. Look at micheal Thomas stats at osuPoint is this. Route running over any other trait.

Now as far as oline. Price was a miss yes. We took the 3rd best center in that class who had physical limitations. Davis has no physical limitations and is the unanimous best Iol in his class and beating heralded as the next great one. Scout the jersey not the school. Mj. Really factor into this as he was a day 3 pick who was extremely young and we were banking on upside. He’s got a 58 grade which is substantially better than his rookie year so he seems to be improving. Remember he won’t even turn 23 until next year. He’s got a future here. But Davis will be a damn good iol. Best guard to come out since Nelson. He has no glaring weakness. No physical limitations.

Olave was clocked at 4.73 at the Nike Combine in '18.  He also hasn't grown an inch since then, so he was physically mature at that time or very close to it.  The scouting services I follow don't expect him to break 4.5.  Diggs and Jeudy are both 4.46 guys, meaning they have speed.

Dude, don't pimp an Ohio State guy in the 1st every year, then give a take like "Scout the jersey, not the school".   Last year, it was pass on Burrow for Young and the year before that it was Haskins.   Some services still have Creed Humphrey rated higher and I haven't seen anyone compare him to Nelson.  With a first round pick especially, you take all available information into account.  You don't ignore a steady stream of busts from the same position group from the same school.
