Impact or Irrelevant: Predicted Rookie Impact on 2018 Team Success

The moments following the Quessenberry pick were filled with questioning looks and a good amount of head-scratching. Telesco and the staff just double-dipped on guards in 2017 and had just signed veteran center Mike Pouncey from the Miami Dolphins.

At the time of the selection, Telesco and his staff raved about Q-Berry’s versatility to play guard and center and how much that aspect of his game raised his value as a prospect. I understand this thinking, especially with the lack of sustained health along the offensive line in recent years, but Quessenberry is likely the third-strong center behind Pouncey and Pulley while also being behind Michael Schofield at guard depth.
