I have a feeling he ends up climbing up the draft boards throughout the process and the Giants end up taking him at 2, which i would hate because I want Saquon or Darnold at 2.
Giants take him, followed by them justifying the reach by saying “you can’t teach size” and “we believe he’s a franchise LT”.
I don’t know why, but I can just see this happening and I think he will be a bust because his feet are not suited to play tackle against the speed rushers in the NFL. Very Flowers-esque.

He's Flowers with even worse feet
He is a player with potential based on his athletic skills
He shows glimpses of great plays that are enticing
But he is not consistent and has not played to his expectations
He is a hit or miss that will take development
I would not take him in the first or second rounds

Uh what? It's his athleticism that is the big question mark.

I think he could be a really good RT. But you don't draft them with the # 2 pick in the draft.
He has a ton of work to do on technique, stability, foot speed.
Good edge rushers lineup on both sides these days. If you can’t play LT, you probably won’t be much better at RT

A "ton of work" does not equal the #2 pick.
"ton" may not equal #32 either. But if Joe Thomas retires he may be worth the risk to the Browns...with the 34 to fall back on.
And at 2 this time?
No way.
