Yeah, the odds are against him since he's from outside the 1st round, but weirdly enough, there are plenty of success stories of guys like him with potential and raw characteristics who end up being good starters.
And he's a year ahead of any other rookies coming out in 2025 with a similar frame and potential to be a great LT. I'm honestly in the stopgap and/or free agent camp because I don't think there's any other way to guarantee safety for Mahomes this season, but if forced to pick between drafting more tackles this year or penciling in Kingsley as the starter, I'd rather pencil in Kingsley.
Like I said, he's a year ahead of anybody else in a weak OT class. And I don't want more Wanyas who don't have a chance of being a franchise guy.

That's all true. But here's the shocker, Wanya actually looked "better" (if I dare use that word) than Kingsley wherever he played and he was terrible at LT. Held his own surprisingly for his limited stint at RT. Maybe Kingsley improves. I just dont want him getting Mahomes killed during that process, so please no throwing him out there until he is ready. (IF he ever is) They sure didnt do him any favors this past season.
