Only way I want Karras starting in 2025 is if he's the LG and even then I am only so-so on it.
As per PFF if you wanna go with that route as well he's the 20th overall (below average) C because he's the 47th ranked C as a run blocker. As in there's a full set of NFL starters plus almost half a league worth of backup C who are better than him when it come to run blocking. Our center to be less soft when it comes time for 3rd and 1 so we don't have to throw deep balls or take sacks then.
I'm okay with Ford as a backup, but if he's a Week 1 starter then we learned nothing and we'll fix nothing. Earlier poster mentioned maybe he'll improve if he's guaranteed a starting role? The dude is going into his age 29 season. He is who he is.
