We don't have a C, and if we did he was way past his prime. We had to have a C, and if so, might as well have come from the OL factory USC. Great pick.

My favorite pick so far. A much needed position seeing how Kilgore is a complete unknown. A guy with far more potential. I see this guy being a top 5 center in the future.

Best center in the draft, nice pick up. We got some damn good value for our picks this year. At least with Ward, Hyde, and Martin.

I get that but saying he's the "starter" is a little absurd. Anybody trust a rookie to make the line calls for Kap, in a season when we expect the Super Bowl? He needs a year before we can let him run the line.

I would love to see that happen, I just don't think it will. I'm not really big on Kilgore. But rookies don't get a lot of playing time on our O-line. And Harbaugh has shown he prefers a veteran at the Center position. I hope Martin comes in playing so well he has to change his mind!

We had a rookie long snapper last year and that faired for us pretty well, but its going to come down to the best player at center in camp. And really we dont know what we have with either at center.
