Offensive line play is boosted by continuity the more they play together the better it gets.

Sure but it's mostly boosted by having good players on it.

That said, I think it's kind of a wash between these two guys.  It makes sense to burn the low durability guy first, rather than to keep him up your sleeve as a last resort.  I'd rather have my backup not be coming off of 3 season ending injuries.  But if Corbett can keep it together the whole year, then that's great.

Might just see the team go into the season with only 9 on the OL (Icky, DLew, Corbett, Hunt, TMo, BC, Zavala, Mays, Nijman) and then target OT early in the draft if it looks like TMo is done in Carolina after this season.

Still would like to see the team draft a center in the upcoming draft... decent looking class heading into the college season.

Well, NFL Trade Rumors could be wrong, I don't know. Maybe they're referring to a different list or something. That aside, he's still middling (but I guess some players have to be).

??? Sample size bub your talking about Centers and rankings let's at least check and see how many other starting Centers were ranked about him and not guys who only took a few snaps? 

I didn't post those screenshots. You did.

Ummm okay. I guess? We will see. I think both are good players when healthy.

AND the screen shot i posted had a data size of 64 players who took snaps... hence why I'm trying to understand how you are calling him bad for being 19th and saying there are 32 starters (obviously) the data set is out of 64 players however putting him top 3rd. Not "below average" as you claimed.

Then post the starters and prove that to be incorrect. It's your dataset.

I like Corbett but I will be shocked if he's not banged up by October.

Well then go dig through it and post the rankings for starters, bub. 

You can't post the data, then start crying when people use it the way it is posted.

You could argue it's smarter to start Corbett on opening day, because Mays will have to relieve him at some point.  If you start Mays, and then he gets hurt, Corbett could very well come in and leave on a stretcher the same week in relief.

At least if you get Corbett's availability out of the way first, it becomes a known variable.  And Mays is rested and ready to finish the campaign.

this is true and hilarious at the same time

If you squint hard enough, Cade Mays looks like this guy.

i was bored yesterday, so i watched all of Mays snaps on the all 22. He played really well in his snaps. I am very glad we have him waiting in the wings, because you know...
