Can Kendall even play center? I like Kendall and think he would do a fine job, but considering the age of our starting offensive line, id rather have most of our backups be young guys. Geisinger got abused at LT, but id like to give him a shot to be a backup C/G. There are some interesting OL prospects on our practice squad too. If we can resign kendall and not garauntee him anything, then fine - let him compete in camp with younger guys for a backup spot. If he vastly outperforms the young guys, then he's got a job. But if theres a younger guy even 80% as competent as Kendall, then i'd favor going with the younger guy. Our Practice squad was raided by other teams last year - we cant afford to let that keep happening. we've got to keep our promising, younger guys and if it means letting a slightly better veteran go to ensure the young guy doesnt get snatched off the practice squad, then thats the best long-term decision.
