Obviously either Duane needs to go back to the Ohio High people and adjust his rankings or he rated Nagy based on the potential of OSU taking him as a DT. I think Nagy is the best of the three based on talent, size and versatility...
I agree with this statement today but its all about projecting to the next level. Maybe the staff feels that Nagy is near his peak in terms of ability and Palmer/Browning are well below. Palmer is the wildcard one, I think the reason he is at or near the top of the list for the next offer is because of his size and potential. 6-7" guys with a frame to add 30-40 lbs dont grow on trees. I agree his speed is suspect but when do these OL actually run 40 yards.

I personally would offer all 3 because of Nagy's versatility to slide across to DT in a class that is weak at that position. Maybe they are waiting on word from some of the DT prospects to offer Nagy. Thats 5 OL assuming everyone commits with a chance for only 4 if Nagy ends up at DT. Thats a good number for this class.
