Centers usually fall, but I could absolutely see JPJ going top 20 too. He's the best C prospect in a long time.
Looking at the draft history of centers, it looks like the late teens is about the earliest they ever go
- Tyler Linderbaum - #27
- Cesar Ruiz - #24
- Frank Ragnow - #20
- Garrett Bradbury - #18
- Ryan Kelly - #18
- Cam Erving - #15 (but it was the Browns)
With that said... I think JPJ looks better than all of them. Ragnow was kind of a big mauler with decent athleticism, Bradbury and Linberbaum were hyper-mobile zone blockers who were a little small, and Ruiz and Kelly were just kind of steady-Eddies. No one's had JPJ's cartoonish size
and elite athleticism.
