We gambled with the Center position far too long IMO.
Keep Ted for a little bit longer is my vote and develop Matt Lee into a stronger run blocker. Lee is a great pass protector already.
Unless the tear was not that bad (possible), I think a Williams signing would mostly be for 2025 & beyond. And a couple other things:
1) An admission we won't use all our cap this year, so why not? And..
2) A hedge on Volson. Both Karras and Williams have C & G experience. Even if Volson stagnates, you'd have Karras, Williams, Cappa on the interior with Volson & Lee as a backups.
It basically takes IOL off the menu as a need for the 2025 draft, regardless of Volson's progress. Though we could always look for a Cappa replacement a year early.
