John Michael Schmitz projected as top rookie center, per NFL.com

New York Giants rookie center John Michael Schmitz anchors the Offensive All-Rookie line for NFL.com’s Chad Reuter. In Reuter’s analysis, Schmitz is the only rookie from the NFC East to make the All-Rookie squad. Here’s Reuter’s breakdown on Schmitz:

“Schmitz is plugged into the middle of the Giants’ line as a rookie, where I expect him to play for the next decade. The sturdy pivot is effective in space and will lead the group up front to give quarterback Daniel Jones an opportunity to succeed.”

By many accounts, Schmitz was the top center entering the draft, so Reuter’s selection doesn’t come as a surprise.
