That coupled with dozens and dozens of extra practices in '19, and 9 live games of experience, puts greatly ahead of the curve when compared to those rookies.
2.) But you won't find me "talking up" any of those guys on your list. Unlike some people on here, I'm not ready to pencil in Wilson or Davis-Gaither as anything other than unknowns. In fact, I've ripped Davis-Gaither quite a bit, and have described him as looking slow as shit. I've described Wilson as potentially being a decent starter, but having to wait and see.
I wonder if the Lions fans are outraged that TJ Hockenson isn't eclipsing Travis Kelce type numbers yet, seeing they spent the #8 pick on him in 2019?
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
