Green. Elite athleticism relative to what’s most important at the center position.

Since Finney is a guy who could not play last year and JC doesn't rate you have to wonder about the pick if he can't win the job sometime this year. Physically he's fast for a center, he's also the shortest with short arms and no exactly a power blocker in the big ten.

    Yeah, he has a lot to learn but I'm not buying excuses for him physically failing to move people as we passed on two legit power houses at center before in the draft.
    why would there be any excuses. If he fails. it was a bad pick. If he excels its a good pick.

    Its way too early to talk about what he cant do and why.. lol.

      I read yesterday that several players drafted in the same range as Green are also unsigned. Something to do with structure of the contracts and incentives

        Ok, It is time to "use your eyes" my friend.

        Try looking at the PICTURE in your own link. Where do you think Green is? What is he doing? Here it is:

        In view of the fact that Mike Tomlin has matched Cowhers record I give him the designation:

                You continue to watch with your eye wide shut. What do I think about Green? I think he's un-signed and currently 3rd on the depth chart behind journeyman. Since he's not getting more money, I'm more interested in why he has not signed. My ears are open Lemming. Do tell.

                If I'm 3rd on a depth chart and not going to make more money, I get out the nearest pen and sign. But that's me.
                Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in seven years and counting. The earliest will be eight years. I guess that in Art Rooney's II, opinion is worth a 3 year extension.

                Our 2024 draft looks to be grade A. Our 2023 draft is an A. The roster is talented, but Mike Tomlin is still the head coach.

                *** Mike Tomlin is the best coach since the AFL- NFL merger that has not won a playoff game in 8 seasons or more. It's either him or Lewis. ***

                  pretty sure this is simply waiting on other draft picks to get slotted and not holding out since he is in the photo at OTA’s.

                  There is no rush.

                    I think the issue here is that you thought "unsigned" means "not at OTAs".

                    And that's not unreasonable.

                    But when someone proves that you're wrong, it's OK to admit that you were wrong.

                    I think people will respect you for doing it because it means that there's a better chance they can trust what you're saying in the future when you've already demonstrated that you have the ability to change your mind when presented with facts that contradict your opinion. Sadly, this is a skill that's super rare in the age of social media.
