On Phin news site.
Said is number one problem is strength.
Assets are intelligence, speed, and agility.
Therefore better suited as a center. Went on to say maybe a starting center. It would be great if this pans out and allows us to go skill offense with high picks and edge with next level picks.

He definitely projects as a NFL Center. Whether that is as a starter or back up remains to be seen.

I really really hope that whether or not Michael Deiter pans out at future starting center has zero impact on our highest 2021 draft picks.

Not sure I'd call agility his strength though. IMHO, flexibility is a bigger weakness than strength, though both could stand improvement.
 
Michael Deiter is a career backup as of now. We should focus on keeping Karras on the cheap and drafting more guys for depth. We have already seen that they get injured and we need parts to plug and play.

Not sure I would say he’s fast or agile but his weak, doughy body was obvious immediately when we saw him last year. You expect somebody much sturdier on the interior line coming from an all B1G player.

How does a lineman struggle with strength?

How did he make it through practice?

I'm sure he's strong.

Just not Offensive Guard strong (yet).

I'm sure there is quite a variance from the strongest starting guard in the league to the weakest starting guard in the league.

Can't all be Hercules! Lol
 
I am not sure which article is being referenced by the OP, but there is a film review article for Deiter. I think the summary of barely passable for a starter is close. He does frequently get over powered, but I saw a couple of plays where his hand placement and quick feet allowed him to maintain the block. The defender while not moved off the ball could not make the tackle. There is no doubt that he is a step down from Kindley, but he looked better than last year. He definitely looked fluid and agile on the pull. I do think he might be the best at pulling And making the block. Kindley does struggle with that facet of his game.
