Christian mccafferey is like him 2.0 he's a lot stronger and can run in between tackles a lot better but see ur point. Elfliwn definitely is the best center in the draft just playing on a horrible o line has made him look a little bad last couple games. He won't be available by pick 20 in the second. I love Walker he's very complete.

Well coaches said last year that they expected bodine to make big improvement this year and he didn't. It's possible.

He is the #2/#3 Center on most people's boards and I'd rather see if he is there in the 3rd, or even come back into the 2nd and get a center. That early in the 2nd there are normally some guys with 1st round grades still lingering around and that's what I would want to move on.

To be fair though I want to wait on pass rusher until the 2nd and grab one of the guys who falls because of the depth in this draft at the position, so a discussion for center there is a non starter for me. Go Mike Williams or Reuben Foster at 9 then best pass rusher in the 2nd.

That's my problem hoping we can trade mccarron for a 1st or second and a 4th. if we get a second we could take Walker in the early second and then elflien with Williams in first. But make no mistake he's the best all around center in this draft and a nasty aggressive run blocking center at that.

The problem is the same problem with zeitler is playing in horrible o-line most of year between bodine and ogbuehi as elflien is the center on a oline with 3 true freshman who are garbage. He is trying to make up and cover for them and in process ends up with not enough protection on own man. If he was on a good oline he would not have this problem. He is the best center in draft and would gladly take him in second as this is our biggest weakness.
