We have no centers.  

I think we have one. Nick Samac. Young player, 24. 6’4” 315#

He is on the 53 pretty sure. Found him on the Roster tab on the team site. I think he may have been active before. 

Looked at wiki.  signed in September off the Ravens practice squad. Apperantly on the roster all season. 2nd year guy.

Here is what it said about him coming out of college:

Overview

A three-year starter with good feet and technique, Samac could be in consideration for a move-blocking rushing attack. He is strong at the point of attack but will have limitations against NFL power. He operates with good hand placement and nimble feet and is a demon once he’s on the move as a pulling center leading the way. He’s fluid and agile in the run game, but those traits fail to do as much for him in protection. Samac punches with inside hands but can struggle to widen his protection base in order to protect his edges. He has eventual starting talent as a run blocker but needs to add more mass and improve in pass protection to get there.

He came here and did everything he could for us. And we need to remember and respect that. He's suffered from injuries for the past two seasons and like most linemen he was carrying some from before as well. Not sure if this is the end of the road for him or not, but good luck to him and his family.

Now, well, we've got a lot of work to do along that offensive line of ours.

Just like every year.

if they do this, its another mistake like letting Shaq go when he was willing to sign for near vet min, he had a good year with the bills and after Jewell leftd Shaq would have been perfect as a fall back/insurance.

I get injuries and all, but I also get the cap space and  he's willing to come back on the cheap. They must feel he's "done", I know he didn't have a good season bouncing around, still feel this isn't the right move.

How much does he want to sign? 
 

There are things were aren’t privy too that drive these decisions sometimes.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
