Completely inaccurate. Tony Pauline projected him in the 4th. The majority of other draft sites had him as a 2nd-3rd. Gil Brandt ranked him around the #45 prospect. Leading up to the draft Mayock speculated Dallas taking him in the 1st

If you watched him play this season his run blocking was very good! His pass blocking was inconsistent

Going forward the question is with the Jets employing the WCO if the Jets go back to primarily a zone blocking scheme. Can Vlad adapt back to that, is a zone blocking scheme translate better or worse for his game.
