Austin Reiter (Center) released by Miami

[Michael G]

Miami released a veteran center recently. The guy isn't very old and while he is not a super star he has starting experience and a Super Bowl ring. He was the starting center for KC in the super bowl a couple of years ago. Probably better than what we have currently and definitely at least a better backup. Here's a link about his release:

Any ties to Temple or Baylor?

Don't think so. He played his college ball at South Florida (USF). He is probably better than anything we have now. His PFF grades a re pretty low, but he didn't allow any sacks in the 6 games he played in (5 starts) this year. I think he had only 1 penalty in those outings. He also didn't step on his QB any.

Rhule and Fitterer are holding out until the first day of free agency when the lowest rated center in the league is available.

Wasn't that the Super Bowl where the Chiefs O line almost got Mahomes literally killed on the field?

Its the one in 2019 when the Chiefs beat SF. I don't remember him being too stressed in that game.

Hard pass on any movement until the new season. Whether or not Rhule is here(I’m having a hard time believing Tepper won’t keep him for year 3), and in the event Rhule is here, he gets no say in the front office, player management decisions. He’s not a plays talent savant, and can barely coach. He needs to pick one if he’s around next year.

It was last year that the Buc's defense nearly killed Mahomes

Don't we owe Paradis $8m next year whether he plays or not? How did we screw up a fresh start rebuild so badly

Sometimes you have to ask, why are they releasing him now?

Yes--A Hurney contract and the team is on the hook for two more years. Its

Starting Center went down with injury. Backup was a rookie. Brought Reiter in to start instead. Starter is back. Still developing the rookie. Reiter is released. I think that's the short and sweet, but there all always things we might not know.

No sense in trying to improve anything now.  Let this fuger burn.  Lets get us a top 5 pick.
