Center.......what would you do?

[JARROD]

Eric McCoy or Michael Jordan,..

having a Michael Jordan on the team would be cool ha.

from reading there’s several good draft options for centers that can also play guard. Eric McCoy is listed at 312 lbs right now, Michael is 300. Both of their scout reports say athletic at point of attack, get their hands up, effective pass and run blockers.

2nd or 3rd round we can get one.

The unfortunate part about the offensive line is that anyway you slice or dice it we desperately need a LT (unless you believe Moton is the answer, then we need a RT, remember Darryl Williams is a FA), a LG (van roten started to really get exposed the second half of the year good depth guy), and a C (this may be the position we have to punt till next offseason and just role with Larsen). The spin zone on this is that because we need all three positions we can't really go wrong drafting a solid prospect anywhere on the line. 

O line is easily the second most important thing to address this offseason after pass rush. 

I'd put our needs as follows:

1. DE
2. LT
3. DE
4. LG
5. C
6. NT
7. NB
8. FS

First round of the draft is critical we get a stud at defensive end or a can't miss O-line prospect. Would not be surprised if this is how our draft falls, we have four picks in rounds 1-3. This also depends highly on how FA goes. 

1-DE

2-G/C 

3-DE

3-NB

I think OT, Center, DE, Ty Hilton type receiver and another corner.

Jawann Taylor, Michael Jordan are my first 2 picks for now. Marquise Brown for my TY Hilton. We need a guy like that to really take the top off. He’s a 4th round probably for now. 

I haven’t picked some day 2 corners yet. I should say DB because a good safety would be fine too.

completely accurate and how it turned out...

No, it's not.

He was signed to a 1 year prove it deal.  He proved it, he was extended, then had a career ending concussion.

Those are the facts.

We need to find a long-term solution at center. Larsen is fine but he is better at guard imo, and center is the most important position on the line.

Agree and disagree.  We need a long term solution, but we've had a perennial all start at center for a decade now and our o-line has sucked the entire time.  Tackles need to be upgraded desperately.

excellent point on needing a burner at WR. might be worth a look in FA as well

If the best OTs are gone before we get to pick, we take the highest ranked Center we can find. You draft starting centers, you don't take someone else's throwaways. 

[RumHam]

We have too many pressing needs. Everyone is going to say we draft someone high. We can't draft everyone high. Larsen has been groomed to take over. We're rolling with him.

Hurney has to spend the 2nd round pick on a center.

There seems to be a few that should work for our 2nd pick. I think it should be a LT and Center— we really do need a Dallas type of offensive line— Cam has deserved one for years.

one yr stop gap to give time to find a long term solution but Gman got greedy and rolled the dice and lost...those are the facts...1 yr was the best we could hope for...

Again.  You are wrong.

He was not a 1 year stop gap.  As soon as he signed an extension, that is no longer accurate.

It's not that complicated.
