I think we will draft a center in the mid-rounds

BigBlueDownTheShore : 4/18/2019 10:43 am
There are a ton of really good prospects available.

Quote:
1. C ELGTON JENKINS, MISSISSIPPI STATE
The Mississippi State center allowed all of five pressures this past season on 369 pass-blocking snaps.

2. C GARRETT BRADBURY, NC STATE
Bradbury was a top-five graded center each of the past two seasons and the highest-graded Power-5 center in this draft class both years as well.

7. C ERIK MCCOY, TEXAS A& M
McCoy struggled a bit in the 1-on-1s at the Senior Bowl, winning only 21 percent of his pass pro reps. However, his tape suggests a player that is one of the most complete interior linemen in this class.

10. C LAMONT GAILLARD, GEORGIA
Among draft-eligible FBS centers with at least 400 offensive snaps played in 2018, Gaillard ranked inside the top-10 in overall grade (78.2) and run-blocking grade (77.1). He also earned an impressive 77.9 pass-blocking grade in 2018, allowing just eight total pressures across 353 pass-blocking snaps.

said elgton could be a CEO or 5 star general if he wanted to - smart, high class, etc. if he has the goods, would want him in my locker room
it would be quite nice to get a plus o-line starter from a

non-premium pick.
I really hope they do

I like Evan Brown but I want an upgrade over Pulley and Halapio. They should draft a developmental C on day 3.
I really like

Elgton Jenkins. The fact that he's big enough to play tackle is intriguing to me. It would be nice to get protypical NFL size at the position.
I like what Sy'56 said about Hjate Froholdt.

This is a guy I am really targeting day 2, and there is a shot he is there early day 3. I am higher on Froholdt than what I see out there, but for what we consider to still be “raw and learning”, Froholdt’s tape is come of the cleanest out there. He is a big guy that plays with plenty of knee bend, light feet, and inside hands. I think his ideal role is at OC, but early on when he isn’t in the starting lineup he would be valuable interior backup.


And if it wasn't for Kahale Elizondo Mountain Dew Warring, Hater Frodo would be my favorite pick based on name alone.
A C who can also play guard

is preferable. Right now the loser of Pully/Halpio battle or Evan Brown is the back up on interior positions. It would be nice to have someone with some versatility.

who's the hog-molliest of them all?
I agree a center in the mid-rounds makes sense

AS we finally address our offensive line, depth will become more important.

Depth. We have none. We barely have starters.

No apology necessary.
We need a STARTING C  
Rong5611 : 4/18/2019 2:58 pm : link
Pulley is terrible. Halapio is unproven.

We need a guy who can compete for a starting position, DG has to know this. We should/must get a rookie C.

Does he?

Reminds me of a line from Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein.

Wilbur: But does Dracula know it?
