Duke Tobin

Put a good coach (Pollack) and give him some time you very well might have an above average starter on your hands.  Do you rely on that? No.  But it’s premature to make a declaration that all our young lineman suck.

Tobin took the 2nd highest center in round one.  He absolutely wasn’t the only one who might have missed on that one (for example).  Most teams boards are very similar.  Heck, the majority on the forum thought Price was a excellent pick.  You never know.

*third highest center - James Daniels was a better prospect

PFF had Price the 5th Center fwiw.

It is also rare for two centers to be taken in the first round. Tobin reached for a center lacking elite attributes in the first round because he failed to address the position in free agency and so panicked when Ragnow went off the board as he needed an immediate starter. At least with Reiff we don't have to take Slater at 5.
