Immediate playing time verses sitting for a year or two?

Auburn is desperate for OLinemen right now, and as a whole have nothing but mid tier 3* committed in this class. On the positive side for us, Auburn doesn't seem capable of coaching up lower tier OLinemen, either. Would I go there if I were an OLineman? No. But some will see early playing time as incentive.

Article about AU's top 5 OL pick/flop Greg Robinson Really goes after Gus and how his offense doesn't prepare OL for the
NFL

quote:

Robinson played in [a college offense] that barely resembled anything that exists in the NFL. I could hardly find any clips to make comparisons [for what he’s done with the Rams].”


quote:

But the ability to absorb coaching and change styles is different for everyone, and even the simplest tasks can be difficult. Just teaching a lineman to start in a three-point stance — crouched down with one hand on the ground — can be a major hurdle.

“Getting down in a [three-point] stance isn’t natural,” writes Schwartz. “Straining through your face mask to see the defense — through the defensive line, past the linebackers, and all the way to the safeties — isn’t natural.”
