    Not really ,I actually think I value him higher than they do...If what i see on tape is true then his lack of power is exactly why they should get him another spot on the OL.....I never said I didn't think he was a great OL ...I said that before he was drafted...I also said the game was changing and he has a greater chance of getting hurt playing Center in a zone scheme concept...It seems that is true as well...

    Never Fear to engage that's just life.....Pride might be hurting the move ?They drafted him as a Center and they are going to stand behind that whether that be right or wrong......Time will tell......

    I know your position on it, I just don't agree with it :smiley1:

    His injuries have just been bad luck, nothing more. The one injury when DD took him out, Pouncey was up field, has nothing to do with lack of power, which I don't believe he has a lack of anyway.

    The tape shows a clear lack of Power ..Not only his NFL tape ,but his College tape as well...Anytime he has a head up NT not stunting he gets driven back more than he wins...When he is uncovered he is probably the best in the game...I can see that and I am sure NFL Teams do to....

    Yes, and lots of people saw Sanders drop 20 passes his last year here when in fact he only dropped 1, IIRC. Maybe 2.

    I call this the great exaggeration factor. I don't see a lack of power.

    Fair enough,just watch his initial Power without distance you might peep what I be peeping....My eyes tell me he is a down hill player not a off the gate move u player....Again not saying he ain't got skills just not Zone Scheme Center skills...
