Jesus with the anti-Center diatribe already. Eagles won a SB without their QB and LT. IMO they don't win that SB without Kelce. He was fantastic that year and in the playoffs. His ability to pull and to get ot the second level to seal guys off was like right out of a clinic (even though he gets downfield too early on short passes sometimes). He was absolutely Huge for the Eagles SB run. That doesn't mean Center is more valuable than QB or LT but it does show it is important. The backup Center for Dallas played better than anyone could have hoped for this year but even still they could not move the middle of the DL and that was huge in short yardage all year long and really the whole Rams game. The OL proves the old saying that "a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link" better than probably any other position in sports. If your center allows push up the middle every play it just doesn't matter how good the rest of your line is.

Yep I did... one player at 15 so over the last 45 year I moved the goal posts about a centimeter... but that still doesn’t prove my point wrong. GMs won’t use high picks on Centers for a reason. Over 500 picks in the top 14 over the last 4 and a half decades and not one center... but they are really REALLY important. Uh huh. Sure.
either way, its what you do, you did it with centers, you did it with dak, you do it constantly. Im not even directly talking about centers. Just all of your arguments PERIOD

@jarntt its all about the draft. Drafts are whats important, and tell all. Because GM's are in the know.

THis argument only stands true when it benefits him though. Because it doesnt hold true if you say goff went #1 and wentz went #2 , then thats irrelevant. Also when u prove him wrong, he just changes things a bit

That's it. That's wisdom.

This will be summarily ignored by PE1.....

If you say so...

No Center has gone in the top 15 in 45 years and that PROVES GMs simply won’t use elite top half of the first round on that position.

Wait Pouncey went 15th so that means Centers are really important plus they have to snap the ball and that’s really really hard to do.

No one has refuted my point that teams are simply unwilling to use their top picks on Center, Punter or Kicker. But somehow they are this huge, vital, team changing position.

45 years X’s 14 picks equals 580 picks and not one Center. 0 for 580

45 years X’s 15 picks equals 595 picks. Freaking 595 players and one Center at 15.

Shit... we better get a Center cause they are so so soooo important. Well we have the 10th pick let’s go get one. Fuck that are you nuts? Common team discussion

your point was never they arent using the picks, your point always has been centers arent important. Again changing things

I didn’t say it’s irrelevant... I said it’s flawed logic. One team proved they thought Goff was better but you have no idea what the other 30 GMs thought. That’s is monumentally different than 580 GMs saying “We won’t use a top 14 pick on a Center”. How you even can compare the two is really having me question your intelligence.

Great. I won’t move the goal posts... one time in 580 picks 43 years ago. You got me. What’s funny is you’re too stupid to understand that doesn’t change my point. One pick out of 580 picks from 43 years ago doesn’t negate my overpowering point.

That second bolder point shows me your incapable of processing simple point. Yes my point are Centers aren’t as important as QB, LT, DE, CB, WR1 but I used the draft picks to show why I think that. Are you really serious on that. That’s not me changing things. That’s me saying “GMs even refuse use top picks on Center”. Changing things??? Are you serious with that. I’m totally willing to shut this down if you struggle that much with defending a point. Jesus man.

More name calling but it was you who said 50 years, I mean 45 years, I mean...

And no.., I don’t mind name calling but I’m only pointing out that you claim to be more educated than a lot of people but you have to stoop to name calling.

well now you saying gms dont use top picks i can agree with. BUt you havent said that in months. Ive taken you at your word, and your word is BS.

You're a teacher correct? Perhaps you should sit in on a communications class?
Again, you seem to have trouble conveying your points correctly. You often mis-speak on things. You seem to have the same interactions with numerous people. Again, just an observation, but others dont have this issue.
