IMO you have to be a pretty special C to justify a first round pick, and Price is the opposite. To think we could have had James instead of him makes me ill. 

He's certainly struggled, no doubt.  I think they wanted Ragnow, but Price was there.  In this instance, it wound up being a bit of a reach, but we didn't know that Hopkins was a serviceable C at that point.  We had to have a C, and Price was a good prospect....but yeah, Derwin James....lol.

Price will be okay.  They should have put him at RG to start with like the other teams did with their rookie C's.  Don't count him out just yet.  And who knows, he could still end up at RG.

And I have to think James surpassed everyone's expectations or he would have been drafted sooner.

Good point, I think Price's work ethic will serve him well moving forward.

Not to be a homer, but if you watched James at FSU, you wouldn't have had many doubts.  The dude was ALL OVER the field making plays and tackles.  A natural.  I couldn't believe he lasted until SD.
