When the draft process started, we heard a lot of questions about Florida offensive lineman Mike Pouncey’s struggles with the quarterback-center exchange.

The general consensus was that Pouncey was very good, but not as good a player as his twin brother Maurkice. Many analysts saw him as a better guard than a center.

As the draft process has dragged on, the view on Pouncey has only improved. Now he has a chance to reach his goal, as stated on PFT Live Tuesday. Mike Pouncey just wants to get drafted higher than his brother, who went 18th overall to the Steelers.

Silva has Mike going 19th to the Giants. He would make a lot of sense to the Dolphins at No. 15.
