From purely a physical standpoint, it would be nice to head into the Bama game with Zion-Donaldson-Gaynor-Rivers-Campbell or a similar combination.
Walker?

No reason to rush. He’s got time. We building depthWalker?
Been reports that Justice had him there in the 4 spring practises and he was a bit of a natural and it seemed to be his pro position, obviously silent since. Also, sounded like Gaynor did well at guard for obvious reason.What makes you think he can play center? I've seen nothing that says that.

I agree with this but you think the Staff will bench Scaife and Jakai Clark?
Scaife has been horrendous and they still start him
Does Williams stay?From purely a physical standpoint, it would be nice to head into the Bama game with Zion-Donaldson-Gaynor-Rivers-Campbell or a similar combination.
Doubtful. He’s already a 6th year guy.Does Williams stay?
Donaldson was Miami's highest graded OL last year in pass protection - 77.6 grade. Clark and Traore are 55.3 and 54.3 respectively.Donaldson would provide an automatic boost to our run game but he's a liability pass protecting.
77. Miami (FL)
The U has unfortunately been without left guard Navaughn Donaldson so far this season. He was Miami’s best pass-blocker last year with a 77.6 grade in that area. Donaldson could still make an appearance this season and that would bolster this line significantly. Jakai Clark and Ousman Traore have plugged in at left guard in his replacement and have earned grades of 55.3 and 54.3 respectively.
I think Walker breaks into that lineup.From purely a physical standpoint, it would be nice to head into the Bama game with Zion-Donaldson-Gaynor-Rivers-Campbell or a similar combination.
Gotta get that doctorate.Doubtful. He’s already a 6th year guy.
Can play is different from being good at. I could start at QB for the Lions but I wouldn't complete a pass over 3 yards if I prayed.Long time until next fall. We need to get more powerful. Scaife and Clark are valuable because they can play multiple spots and have experience.
He was the best lineman on one of the worst lines in Miami history. That's not much to boast about. I like Donaldson but he was a liability as well, especially when they put smaller and quicker lineman on him.Donaldson was Miami's highest graded OL last year in pass protection - 77.6 grade.

Healthy Donaldson would be a huge boost.

77.6 pass block grade is very strong. That would be the 11th highest grade for an NFL guard, slightly behind megastud Quenton Nelson. I don't agree with everything PFF does but their OL grades are very accurate. It's ok to admit when you're wrong.He was the best lineman on one of the worst lines in Miami history.

I would still start him because of his experience, ability to run block and Shear size.
