Lance Zierlein disse na quinta-feira que Dunker provavelmente encontrará dificuldades no início de sua mudança para a posição de guard. “Dunker terá alguns problemas logo de cara com a mudança de tackle para guard”, afirmou Zierlein. “A proteção ao passe pode se complicar para ele às vezes. Ele precisa jogar como guard. Para mim, haverá uma curva de aprendizado para ele na proteção ao passe.”
