Fitterer: Go get C Bradley Bozeman

Recommended Posts

Bozeman is a C who is excellent as a run blocker and a pass blocker.  He is 27, so you can offer him a longer deal (3-4 years).  To have Bozeman, Corbett, and Moton on one side of the ball, you would have the right side of the LOS locked down for the next 3 years.   Furthermore, you would be (perhaps) one player away from a dominant OL, depending on what you decide to do with Brady Christensen and how well he plays there.

I think Tretter is 31, but he is a more established C. At 31, a center has 5 good years left.  Bozeman was a G for a while but settled into his more natural position.

We were reportedly interested early.  I wouldn't know what the hold up would be...  if we can get him. I would feel a thousand times better about our line.

We have Elflein there now---and after watching him get bull rushed into the QB from the G spot, he is not the answer--a good backup LG/C, but if he is on the field, the offensive coordinators are aware.

Look, I've been banging the drum for our draft pick to be Linderbaum, even at #6 because we desperately need a top flight Center. 

If we were to pick up Bozeman, I'd be so happy with that. Of course, I want them to check him out using a different doctor than the one that gave passing grades to both Paradis and Elflein. 

Yeah, this line can be built to compete, but without a best in the game center, you'll never solidify the line. This could be the best money we could ever spend.

I think the hold up was waiting on Watson. Now that we are out of that race, the money can go elsewhere.

Right I was thinking he was the older between the 2…love their running game..I like Bozeman a little better cause age and can play guard too. Hell I wouldn’t be upset if they signed both of them haha. I’m all in on the build a monster oline finally(like Dallas, Cleveland, Baltimore have). Benefits us regardless of who’s the coach next year and whoever is under center. Not to mention CMC, Hubbard, Foreman…

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
