Kevin Mawae, a good one yr choice for Center?

Mawae of the Titans, is still unsigned, and was supposedly going to be aced out of his starting job, altho he has been an all pro center 8 times, the last in 2008. We have a Center problem. Wouldn't it be nice to get a FA who doesn't require a draft pick (i believe that is correct), and an all pro C at that? A lot of us have bellyached about our center play, which has been bad. (same for rest of OL except for staley/sims.) But this would be a nice way to see what happens when we plug in a 1 to 2 yr all pro at C, and also draft a top 4 OT, plus Iupati. Talk about fixing the OL? Heck that would be beautiful sight to see, even if only for one or two yrs. Contract $$ are the problem in Titanville, and we really could use an all pro C to fix this line. Wouldn't cost that much, because it would just be $$, and not long term(Mawae was drafted in 1994). He is 16 yrs in the league, but has played all pro level thru 2008. He has to be a substantial upgrade over what we have at present. Any thots on Mawae? Incidentally, i'd love to see our 4th rd pick at C get a shot, just to see what he has, or not. Why draft him if he never gets in a game? Play him a lot in preseason, and if good enough, play him in reg. season. Otherwise, he is just taking up space, and what in the heck did we draft him for? Mawae for 1-2 yrs is intriguing, altho he definitely can't have more than a season in the tank. The will to prove the Titans wrong just might coax one more pro bowl season out of him. Any way to know if jedi jed or bigMike have thot about Mawae?
