You're right, I can't see the future.

they've watched him practice and develop for a year now, IF That's their plan and I say IF... it's their plan because they are comfortable with his development already

Yep, and they've watched Charles Brown practice and develop, and he sure the hell wasn't the answer at LT.

Who the hell was BDLP 2nd year in his career? A nobody, that's who.

And he's still a nobody after 6 seasons, but I'd rather spend the extra money to re-sign him (which he shouldn't command a hefty contract) than go into the season with Lelito as our starter.

I never suggested signing a kicker for $4 mil per year.

draft a center with 2nd or 3rd round picks. Those picks are too damn valuable at other positions needing replenishing.

Center is a top 3 need at worst, IMO, after CB and maybe WR. I don't see why spending a 2nd or 3rd on one would be an issue. True there are other positions that need replenishing, but Center is one of our biggest needs. Getting one that can come in and start right away would be a great use of a 2nd/3rd round pick. 'd rather get the 2nd/3rd best Center in the draft in the 2nd or 3rd round, than get the 9th best CB, LB, S, WR or any other position (Johnny Patrick, Martez Wilson.)If we go into the season with Lelito as the starter, we're in trouble.
