Not just done well. Dominated.

Watch his tape. The best defense in college (Bama), OU, LSU. None of those defenses could get pressure on Johnny Football from the left side all year long.

His positional value isn't as great as a QB, but the guy absolutely deserves the top 5 label he's getting.
I don't think anybody has said otherwise. I know what I've said is that he's not Orlando Pace. Similarly to how people are saying Geno Smith isn't RG3. He's a good prospect, but should he outstrip the top QB? Especially for a team that already has a good LT, albeit one they need to re-sign, a team that drafted a project in the 3rd round last year who has already shown some initial signs that he can play?

Joeckel shouldn't even be part of the discussion here. Although I have a great and undying fear that he'll end up being the pick anyway.
