Ok, I'm out in the middle of nowhere California so I have time on my hands.
After missing out on Fasusi I decided to see how 5* OTs have panned out, using NFL draft position as a proxy.
According to 247, between 2015 and 2020, there were 23 composite 5-Star OTs. Of those, 15 were drafted... 65% hit rate. On average, of those drafted, they were the 4th OT taken and 40th pick overall.
------
Between 2019 and 2024 (approximate time frame of draft eligibility for the classes listed above), there were 65 OTs drafted in the first 3 rounds.
1st Round
29 OTs Drafted
Average OT position rank out of HS - 39th (Highest #1, Lowest #169)
Ranked in another position out of HS - 2 (1 Guard, 1 Center)
Not ranked out of HS - 1
2nd Round
16 OTs Drafted
Average OT position rank out of HS - 55th (Highest #1, Lowest #179)
Ranked in another position out of HS - 3 (1 SDE, 1 DT, 1 Guard)
Not ranked out of HS - 1
3rd Round
20 OTs Drafted
Average OT position rank out of HS - 77th (Highest #1, Lowest #274)
Ranked in another position out of HS - 6 (5 guards, 1 TE)
Not ranked out of HS - 3
In other words, yes 5-star OTs are nice to have, but don't panic... we currently have the composite 41st and 48th OTs and a chance at #19. We'll be fine.
And as I noted earlier, I think Mills is going to be a good one.
