This offensive lineman is best suited for a zone-heavy run scheme that values athletic, intelligent, and technically sound interior linemen.
Year 1 starter at center, with the ceiling to be a Pro Bowl anchor for a decade.
Strictly a power-gap run scheme where his athletic advantages would be less utilized.
Kelly's high football IQ and movement skills make him an ideal fit for schemes prioritizing fluidity and intelligence on the offensive line.
Selected #18 overall in Round 1 of the 2016 NFL Draft by Indianapolis Colts out of Alabama.
