As far as starters go, I can honestly see Derrick Dockery being the only incumbent. Samuels should retire, I doubt Randy will be back, Rabach and Heyer are bums, and I'd be surprised if Edwin Williams or Chad Rinehart could earn a starting job.
I think we need to build the entire O-line around Armstrong.  |
I love how the internet fosters a pack mentality...somebody with internet gravitas says something and it becomes the prevailing opinion
Rabach is not a bum..he played on a crappy offense..the last two seasons were the only two he wasn't on a line that blocked for a top RB in the league..(Portis was conference leader over AP/Turner in '08 up until Halloween)
the deficiencies of those lines were both clearly defined..by injury, poor depth, and awful coaching that seemed to be over-matched at every turn..(sorry Buges)
draft a center and groom him for next season..with the new QB..in the short run F/A will provide them with some new blood..Center is not the immediate concern
personally I think Pouncey will be gone...(only thing.. he was exclusively a shot-gun center)..he is the highest rated I've seen since Jake Groves left Va Tech
