I don't mean to be jumping on anybody here but for the Dline a sharp reaction time to the snap is extremely important
and that sharp reaction time is a function of vision
vision is important to getting off the snap quickly and engaging with the OL before they get in a run/pass blocking stance and gain a leverage advantage on you which is much harder to beat once they do
putting SPs into vision and at least getting it capped is highly reccommended (by me) to be effective over talented OLines
evaluate your player's reaction off of the snap throughout a whole game and judge for yourself
edit:
well it's not the most important thing for a DL to have immediately when he's still growing up GLB style but quick reaction time is something all DLinemen need to have
