Draft Generated Offensive Linemen

I'm noticing the top Offensive Linemen are being generated with high speed now, are we going to see speed making a bigger impact on pass blocking?

well i might be the minority but i would say NO on that speed will play a part on blocking.

I think that we will just seeing players with speed at positions that dont use it because it is mostly a glitch/bug that player who doesnt need it has it.

for example
i have seen punters with 80+ speed yet i dont see how that is going to help them punt the ball faster or the ball is going to go faster to the opposition.

i just take it up that they werent suppose to have that speed there but they have it.

JDB has already said that it plays a role, he never mentioned a change to player generation which has obviously happened.

Maybe pulling plays will actually work now.
