Michal Menet (pronounced michael men-NET) was rated among the top offensive linemen in the country after receiving first-team all-state honors as a sophomore, junior and senior at Exeter Township High School. He started 12 games in the pivot in 2018 after getting snaps in 12 games as a reserve his redshirt freshman season. He earned honorable mention All-Big Ten honors in 2019, starting all 13 games in the middle. League coaches voted him third-team all-conference in 2020, rewarding the two-time team captain for his play in nine starts for the Nittany Lions. Michal's brother, Christian, played football at Eastern Michigan before a neck injury ended his career. -- by Chad Reuter

4 star recruit. Guard turned center. High IQ. 4 year starter.
Issues getting to 2nd level and reach blocks.

Overview
Durable three-year starter with good mass and strength to handle what's in front or on top of him. However, he struggles when he has to range or play reactive football. Menet's opening steps and strikes are compact and efficient. He lands with some pop, but lacks ideal length and athleticism to sustain blocks against active defenders. He has the potential to become an average starter within two years.

Strengths
- Three-year starter and two-time team captain.
- Broad through chest and waist with good density.
- Plays under control.
- Able to make climb-blocks in tight quarters.
- Excellent body control into and through his run block.
- Fires hips into down blocks with leverage and pop.
- Works feet into position before striking.
- Can set a shallow anchor and stuff a bull rush.
- Punches with inside hands.
- Good upper-body power to displace edge attacks.
- Stubby arms diminish block sustain.
- Doesn't have desired length or feet for redirection in space.
- Below average snap-to-step quickness on down blocks.
- Plodding working up to many second-level blocks.
- Very limited range and adjustments as second-level blocker.
- Heavy feet attempting to mirror edge-to-edge rushers.
- Doesn't always slide feet quickly enough to help versus gap-runners in pass pro.

Surprised Kylin Hill wasn't selected for us, but I didn't really want that to happen anyways. May as well give Eno Benjamin another chance compared to another late RB.
I have no strong feelings on the pick though. RB, CB, and TE will continue to be something to address in 2022, not that a 7th round pick would change anything.

Or Jonathan Ward who actually played and scored a nice TD on his only touch last year.

Doesn't matter, sure. Neither will be a factor most likely, but here's hoping.
At least let me have some hope for Benjamin since he went to ASU.

I wasn't an Eno fan. Small and not a great athlete. Has some flash to his game but caused loss of yards too much for my taste.

Round 7, No. 247 overall: Michal Menet, C, Penn State
My take: Menet fell into as good of a situation as he could find in the NFL. He'll sit and learn from the Cardinals' starting center, Rodney Hudson. With Menet's size (6-foot-4 and 301 pounds), he could find a place in a starting lineup in a few years, but he has a good number of things to polish before that happens.

I doubt either of us should consider one of them as relevant going into next year anyways. Both will be pushed by a UDFA.

Future Mike Webster here. I'm not saying this because I'm a Penn State homer. Not at all

Good pick for round 7, could end up as the backup center.

What do you know about him? Could he be a decent backup and develop into a starter? Just wondering since you follow PSU.:Championship:

nfl.com projected him as a fourth rounder

Not much, honestly. The last few years my football attention, in the very limited time I devote to it, has been on the Cards.
As a PSU follower and watching their games, Menet has some limitations however he can definitely become a solid backup and a starter down the road after Hudson's contract runs out. Solid fundamentally. Think of him a rich mans A J Shipley.
