[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1035590, member: 10086"] Yes. Another thought would be to let Myers compete where he was a standout in HS. His position? Guard He can play Guard at a high level. We know this because he was the #1 Recruit from Ohio after being a 1st team All-American Guard. So I’d offer that If someone can play at or above his level at C? have him compete at RG. He’s got the body type and demeanor to slide over if it’s our best 5. [B][I]Dairyland Express[/I][/B] [I]“Like his predecessor Corey Linsley, Myers has the ability to also play guard if needed, he is well-versed in making pre-snap calls, and if there was a big run by an Ohio State running back, then there was a good chance that Myers was at the second level and downfield making blocks–he did an excellent job of this in college.”[/I] Let’s also keep in mind that Myers started just 2 seasons at Center for Ohio State before being drafted. He then was injured in his Rookie season in Game 6 for us and missed the remainder of 2021. So to be fair, he’s really got 2.4 seasons with the Packers after paying C for just 2 seasons at Ohio State. I’d argue in his behalf that most often a drafted Junior with just 2 years experience needs a year at minimum to acclimate as they are still somewhat raw. He was thrown into duty day 1. Then he injured in his 6th start during the 2021 season. That means 2022 was his first full season playing Center in the NFL after coming off injury. Let’s forward a year to 2023. His QB changes. Remember too that each QB has their own nuances, signals, preferences, etc. There is a good probability that Myers is still peaking. That can be aided by elevating the play around him. These are not excuses. These are facts. I presented similar facts when everyone attacked Jordan Love for “leading ALL of college in INT”. But we have to dig deeper than a top onion layer attack.
