I especially like his pass blocking.
Also, maybe not crap on 6th/7th round Centers, as Karras was a 6th rounder.
Miami starting C was a UDFA.
Chicago starting C was a UDFA.
Denver starting C was a 7th rounder.
Sometimes good players do end up coming from that late. It's not often, but it happens. You know this.
And I'm not saying I 100% am confident in Matt Lee being the answer at C, but I'd like to see him get some snaps if/when the Bengals get eliminated from playoffs.
At that point, nothing trying to play for the current season. It's all about seeing what you got and developing going into next.
I see what you're getting at, and at this point I totally agree with your last sentence. I just found it funny that a lot of us think the answer is just waiting further down the roster. Your knowledge of college players far exceeds mine, so I definitely have to defer on Lee. I do know that guys like Yoshi and Tate aren't and weren't the answer to any questions... Not that those are questions you asked.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.
