Anybody remember Don Mosebar on the Raiders in the 80s and 90s? he was 6-6 or 6-7 and was an all-pro center a few times.

I would love if our tackles and guards are kept together to jell even more; and with a 1st or 2nd round true center to handle those duties

I'd rather keep Goodwin another year. But, they do need to restock the OL. Kilgore and Looney haven't played much and Leonard Davis is an expensive vet that they might not be able to afford.

At the level this line is playing at I wouldn't want to mess with anything. Boone is balling at guard.

This would make us draft another OL to fill looneys spot because we need depth....our depth is perfect and let's looney be groomed at the guard position instead of coming in without experience

He plays 4 positions pretty well. Far better at G than expected. A servicable backup swing Tackle. Why do we want to change him? And why do we want a 6'8" Center?....

The reality is that this offseason, every overpriced veteran that can be replaced by a rookie or second year player *will be replaced by a rookie or second year player.
we have over 13 draft picks (we will get more compensatory picks) and ZERO cap room.
You do the math

This would have been my response. Don't be surprised if Kilgore closes the gap on Goodwin and either replaces him next season or the next.

So placing Boone at center and potentially another chilo at guard ( saying chilo because looney has no game experience)
