Released per WIP. Battle for center is now a two-man race.

Dillen · May 11, 2006, 02:51:01 PM

I dont really know if anyone thought he'd win the job anyways.

I think center is a 3 man race, between Fraley, Jackson, and that UDFA Cole kid. I think Jackson or Cole win the job.

I think Fraley will stick, even if he loses the competition for the starting position. He's a fantastic back-up, and still not terribly expensive (I think).

Not expensive at all.

650K salary this year. He can play center and guard. Do we have any OL that cant play more then 1 OL position?

SunMo · May 11, 2006, 02:56:24 PM

Tra Thomas and Jon Runyan

Dillen · May 11, 2006, 02:57:53 PM

And Adrien Clarke.

Awesome.

Andy seemed very high on Nick Cole. Wouldn't be surprised if he makes the team. He's only 6'0 but he's 350.

just because andy or heckert says a lineman is multi positional doesnt make it so...fraley for example cannot play guard he would be bitch slapped there...it remains to be seen whether someone like herremans could play guard...

General_Failure · May 11, 2006, 03:21:18 PM

Fraley got bitch slapped at Center, so technically he can play guard.

ice grillin you · May 11, 2006, 03:23:09 PM

tru indeed...tho exposure would come at an even greater level at guard

General_Failure · May 11, 2006, 03:25:04 PM

It would be interesting to see him play guard against a 3-4 defense.

Diomedes · May 11, 2006, 03:25:13 PM

How do you figure that? Is Center not much more difficult to play than guard? Call the blocking assignments, hike the ball, get your head up before contact, etc. You're a lot busier mentally, and a lot more vulnerable physically, at center than you are at guard.

if fraley ever played guard at his size...he would get pummeled. Mahe would be our featured back

As if Mahe getting blasted would be a bad thing.

Furio getting the axe is only surprising in the fact that it happened this early. I knew with both Justice and more importantly Jean-Gilles coming in, he'd be one of the guys on the outside looking in.
