That may have had just a little bit to do with talent or lack there of in this draft. Besides all 5 even Ragnow have the ability to play guard and or Tackle. It's not as if they are pure centers. They got selected because of a weak draft for OT and their ability to play multiple positions along the line.

It will be interesting to see who ends up playing C, OG or OT?

What are we at now 52 years in a row a Center hasn’t gone in the top 10? Just like Punter, kicker and punt returner while every other position has. Notice the correlation?

- There were no elite tackles in this draft

- Interior O-lineman's importance is reaching that of OT's in today's NFL

Are you trying to argue that centers are as important as left tackles? Yeah let's go ahead and use one example out of a hundred drafts where there was a very strong center class and a weak draft for left tackles to make blanket statements.

Said they didn’t go top 10. Tons went first round. Why make up lies and things I never said. Fredricks, the brothers from Pitt and Miami, the kid from Cleveland a few years ago they cut all went in the first round. I said they never go hard tu like top 10 and once against none get top 20. Wanna know why... cause they aren’t as important as most other positions

 

[Iggloo]

OP is a moron obviously if he thinks more centers were taken than LTs because it is a more important position. The draft is about supply and demand. The centers were in high supply this year.

That does not in any way mean Centers are more valued than LTs. That's a silly statement.

That being said I've been a fan of a strong interior line for years and think that NFL teams are thinking that way more and more over the last few years too. You need to be able to control the middle of the line to run the ball and prevent guys from blowing up the pocket in your QBs face. But LT still more valuableIf you don't think centers are very important you don't understand and you didn't watch Kelce this year.

 

[Manster7588]

I may be a bit biased here, but I see this thread more about not discounting the importance of a good center.

It could have been worse... It could have been either a punter or a long snapper.
