Corbett to Center

I think we take a C in the draft, probably later.  corbett may benefit from this move, based on his injury history.  Not really sure what they will ask of him, but I imagine that he is smart enough to call schemes and would pull less than a G....

It would be unwise to depend on Colbert staying healthy all season.  I hope they get an opportunity to upgrade him, but short of that he needs a quality backup until they do find an upgrade.

Not buying this one bit.

They will draft one early, unless Connor Williams signs within the next few days.

Just no way Corbett is the starting C come week 1. 

I hope you are right.

I know some of you will mock this (in your heads--I kinda did but then I thought about it)  Mays has been moved around from position to position, school to school.  I think they worked him at C some last year.

In the SEC his senior year, he gave up 1 sack. 

I think there is potential there, if they would let him focus on Center.  He is 24--and then i saw this on his wikipedia page---twilight zone stuff---lists him as a center.  That is right--center.  or for some of you, the "hiker" I am talking depth here. but he flashed a bit last season

It would be ideal to put Corbett as the swing G and C

However, as a post june 1 cut, he would save $6m.  So they could try him there and cut him if he does not win the starting job--letting the rookie and Mays hold it down.

    • His high school QB film looks like Cam Jr. 
    • You should put (IR) next to Jaycee Horn. If Evero has this defense performing at a high level again he should be a HC somewhere next year. Still lacking quality depth and starters at several positions on that side.
    • I noticed that we did not seem to be too worried about CB, although I really like the CBs we added (draft and undrafted signings).  However, we can't go into the season with an injury prone CB, a 33-year old nickel, and a free agent, former seventh rounder.  Even if Gilmore is used sparingly until we have an injury to Horn or Jackson, we need another veteran. We also have Bootle, who is a 27-year old veteran who played pretty well last year. I think both Willie Drew and Smith-Wade have a good chance of making the roster, and I don't think rolling with six CBs is ridiculous in this day and age. Morgan was focused on Offense and, as you recall, pounded the table for Dane Jackson in Buffalo in round seven.  He seems to have found a pair of gems yesterday, but they take time.  They fit a "type" (good tackling, versatile). I also think Gilmore might be good for Clowney as well.  To your point--if we sign Gilmore, I feel very positive about the CB room.  If Horn stays healthy, it would be a strength and not a liability.
