My question is why does the hype seem low on him? Deep interior draft hiding him? Or is it just a guy NFL teams are higher on than media types.  There was a pic of him from high school floating around and he already looked like an NFL lineman.

A few days ago I watched a video of him in high school benching 515 pounds 3 times and he most definitely looked like a grown man. I also do not understand the lack of hype for him which is why I started this thread. For me he checks all the boxes someone would look for in a lineman. Size/strengrh/athleticism/played against great competition in the SEC. I'm thinking you may be right that teams are higher on him than the media. I wouldn't be shocked at all to see him go early second round.

He also hits those boxes we look for in a lineman, SEC, big school, size, games played, leader, mauler etc etc. Would make every position on our line 6'6!  

The balance issue does really worry me though.
