He did.

But he wasn't standout - just solid. Fringe top 50 sort of pick - not seen as any sort of elite OT prospect until he started beating on rummies to start the season.

Guys that have fallen behind him like Belton and Millum all started the 2024 season ahead of him. Even guys like Emery Jones and the AZ kid whose name I can't spell. They were considered better prospects than Simmons until Simmons beat the brakes off...Akron.

His 1st round grade right now from anyone that put him there is based on nothing more than projecting what he did against bad competition and presuming it would've translated had he not gotten hurt.

It's folly coming and going, really.
