I think where he was drafted and how he performed he should be viewed as a very good pick and we as fans should be optimistic about his potential as a long-term fixture at LT.

I can see why rating sites wouldn't have him as high. Dude actually got worked in a couple games. Sure he didn't directly give up a sack a lot... but pressures are sometimes more important.
I also think the rating sites can be off base with the quantifying factors.... I've seen Rodgers have a helluva game only to be the 12th best QB of the week, or some grabbage.

Best LT in the game today? Nah... but honestly, what LT from Thomas, to Smith, to any of them have been "the best LT in the game" as a rookie?
I think he really could be top 3 LT as soon as next season, with improvement.

I seem to recall he had his worst games mid season going up against Melvin Ingram of the Bolts and Myles Garrett.  IIRC, he had an ankle injury.

But I see quite a few analysts list LT as a huge weakness for us.

I shake my head at that.
