4. Is Jackson Carman a steal or a bust?

Jackson Carman is one of the most interesting offensive linemen in this draft class.

We’ve seen mock drafts with Carman in the first-round. We’ve also seen three-round mock drafts that don’t have him going on Day 2 at all.

Why? It all depends on your analysis when it comes to what he can develop into.

Carman has shown elite strength and great footwork at left tackle at the collegiate level, but he likely translates to a right tackle or even an offensive guard in the NFL. Is there a team who wants to a chance on him in the first or second round? How about the third round? Does he fall to the fourth round?

Depending on which NFL analyst you ask, you might get a different answer each time.
