Hopkins had a PFF of 57 in the playoffs which is not much better than the regular season.
Also, remember that 3rd and short in the Super Bowl on our last drive and the O-line couldnt get any push on the defense to get the 1st down. That is Hopkins in a nutshell. We should expect better out of the center position.
Even though Bozeman is not very athletic, his strength is one of his best traits. If we sign him and, say, Norwell (LG), then that would do wonders in the short yardage plays you refer to.

In my mind, you improve where you can, but the order of importance for me is RG, RT, LG, C, LT.
So, if they can only improve the first 3 this year, I am going to be happy about that.
I don't think that they rely that anyone on the roster improved "with a year of experience".

If he signs with us, you can buy his jersey to simultaneously represent both your favorite team AND your hometown!
