PFF has him ranked pretty low the past couple of years

In his defense, Rabach has had a lot more responsibility than the average center over the last four years. He's been a pretty darn important piece...of a unit that has been pretty crappy overall.

He'd probably be less of a disaster if Shanahan allows the quarterback to call his own protections, but he's still going to get killed against larger nose tackles in the running game, and by anyone with two legs in the passing game.
