Turner is probably going to need a little bit of time to get acclimated, but he has the potential to start and be a potential star down the road. It will come down to how fast Turner can learn the playbook and get in shape enough to be a consistent, every down player.
NFL Comparison
Turner has some similarities to Marshal Yanda of the Baltimore Ravens. They have similar builds for the position and may end up going around the same area of the draft. Like with Yanda, it may take a little bit of time for Turner to find his way in the NFL, but if he can, it could have a similar level of impact the way Yanda has, playing at an incredibly high level.

by the way the article mentioned an interesting tidbit
Quote:
Turner’s best fit is in a gap scheme at right guard. If he can get cleaner around his midsection and more consistent with his ability on the move, it is possible someone could look at him for left guard, but that seems unlikely.

that "midsection" has been Jeff Allen's problem.
