Should the Bengals put in a claim for Nick Harris?

If he has to be claimed on waivers versus a free agent, not sure he gets by Tampa Bay who lost Jenson for the year.

But if so, I hope we grab him.

After Karras, the Bengals don't really have much of anything to write home about at the Center position.  Hill is pretty unimpressive, and Scharping has taken the very first reps at C in his life this preseason.  I'm thinking that Harris might be a good add, seeing how he's entering just his 4th year in the league and appears to be fully recovered from his knee injury.

Sounds like a great move, Harris would be an upgrade I am sure over Trey Hill and Scharping as the backup Center behind Ted.
