Zone blocking

aprius--you seem to have info on the second year guys that we lack, or you for some reason are very doubtful of their progress. I guess that the one thing I feel pretty good about is knowing that they've been with Bugel from day one of their pro careers--and didn't one of them start a game last year and do well, before hurting his knee? What is the source of your pessimism about these guys? Their youth? Something else? Just curious.

ANother point is that Friedman is probably a better guard than center, so he gives more depth there. BUt whatever. I think the pieces are there, and the rest is chemistry and coaching. And I've yet to be convinced that Bugel and Gibbs can't figure out how to coach an O-line in 2005. But we'll see!
