Rotoworld: Thomas can play Center

Recommended Posts

It's too bad people are having so much trouble with this. 

 

1) Donald Thomas isn't even practicing yet, much less forcing any position changes.

 

2) Holmes is taking the first team snaps at center so far through the offseason program.

 

3) Grigson made comments about the fact that we have other players who can snap the ball, prior to the draft. He named Donald Thomas. The point he was making is that most teams don't carry a backup center on the roster, especially on game day. Usually, a guard is your backup center. He never suggested that Donald Thomas would be moved to center.

 

4) Even though Holmes is the leading candidate at center (which makes perfect sense), the starting offensive line isn't anywhere close to being decided. We're still two months away from training camp, and then there will be 40 practices and four preseason games away from the opening day roster/lineup being determined.

 

Long story short, Donald Thomas hasn't been moved to center, and this "report" is just speculation based on innocuous comments Grigson made about how a roster is formulated.

You really need to stop getting upset about nothing. Time you tried beer.

 

 

Yeah … I mean getting upset that a player taken in the 20's in round 4 might end up a back-up is ……. Fill in your own blank as I don't want to insult anyone.

No one has said anything about the coaching staff considering this. This was speculation by rotowire, not information from the coaching staff.

Grigs himself said Thomas could snap the ball if it isn't in the back of his mind why say that just  to list somethings Thomas could do like bake. needle point oh and snap the ball
