Dockery at center, thats funny

Rivera -- he'll want a bunch of money and at 33 years old, I'd look elsewhere.

Wahle -- will be just 28 this year, I don't know much about him..besides the fact that he's from Navy. Will he want a lot of cash?

we dont even have money close to signing either of them.
dockery at center is just funny.
i think we should either draft a center as a late pick, or sign one from free agency.

I agree Dockery is not a center. He hasn't played it and because he's 6'5" his butt would be Ramsey's line of sight.

I wonder if Marvin Fowler would be available from the Browns, he is an ex-Terp sitting behind Fain, the stud center from ND. Fowler was a pretty high pick (for a center) and he isn't playing.

As a Md alum, I am partial to ex-Terps...sorry!

Wahle would be awesome but out of our price range I assume

I'd love to have either of the starting guards from Greenbay, at the right price of course. But, I'm content with Dockery playing the position again after another year with Buges.

Dockery seems okay at guard, the big need is at center. I'd love to see us get one, but it doesn't seem like a whole lot is available either in free agency or in the draft at that position.

Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't moving from a different spot on the line a big move? You have to make reads about the defense and whatnot and call out signals... Don't we need to get a true center? It doesn't seem like Raymer is working out... though maybe he wouldn't be so bad with another season and Jansen in the fold... I'd still like to see a younger guy than Raymer in there though, have Bugel work on him.

I think drafting center in the 3rd or 4th and letting him develop for one year with Raymer still here would be good. Ben Wilkerson may still be there, that would be great.
