Garrett Bradbury

See what they can do this year.

When it comes to the center position, you brought up Drew Dallman walking away, and now Garrett Bradbury is the starting center for this team.

What specifically are you going to be looking at to figure out if he's where he needs to be or if Caleb is taking a step where maybe he can take on more responsibility to protect himself?

Yeah, Lawrence, it's a great question.

And he did a great job last year.

And they're not just... going to replace him easily.

And Garrett Bradbury is a good center.

And he is going to do a decent job in between Joe Tooney and Jonah Jackson are two really good guards in the NFL.

You know you got Darnell Wright.

You know you got the center of the future in Logan Jones, even in, with Garrett Bradbury, you know, getting great reviews here over the last few days.

And, you know, obviously Joe Thuney eventually will retire, just as Drew Dalman did, and so we'll see how the left tackle situation plays out.

So if there was one other spot to bring up, Jonah Jackson I think is an unsung hero on this team.

And up front, four of the five pieces are the same that they started last season with.

And there apparently Ben Johnson yesterday went out of his way at the end of practice to recognize Garrett Bradbury.

So the new guy is...

Y- got praised publicly yesterday by Dan Roschar and Press Taylor, but even more importantly, the head coach acknowledged what Bradbury's given to this offensive line and this offense at the end of practice yesterday.

And Kyle Monungai coming back being healthy and looks like he should be good to go for Sunday.

Now, they do have a new center, but I'm not concerned there in Garrett Bradbury.

The only question mark I have on the offense is Braxton Jones.

And I've been on this left tackle position, as we've all talked about quite a bit.

He can play over the guard.

He could play over the center if they wanted to have a one-on-one against Garrett Bradbury.

Or he could have a double-team issue with Jalen Brown against – Braxton Jones.

So there's a couple of exploratory attack points that Carolina's going to try to take advantage of.

And one of them will be a big guy because Cam Jackson, their nose guard, he's 6'6", 340.

So they can also try him on, you know, try to get to a one-on-one attack, your snapping hand against Garrett Bradbury.

So like I said, there's some explorations exploratory defense that they're going to have to do as well but it's going to be about braxton and he's got to play falsely low he's got to play with bendability like he hasn't played with in the past and if his legs have really developed and they're healthy then he should be able to use his length and get to the defenders before the defenders get to him

Tom, I want you to address one of our fans who called earlier, Waddle did earlier.

Linebacker, they added Kobe Bryant, who came over from the Seahawks in that Super Bowl defense.

And then they went and added a couple more players on the offensive side of the ball to protect their franchise quarterback in Caleb Williams with Jedrick Willis and Garrett Bradbury.

Now, this game is slated at 47.5 points.

I think that's pretty fair.

I mean, Tyreek Stevenson, maybe, but I tend to think he's probably gone after this year in the final year of his rookie deal.

A couple other guys like stopgaps like Braxton Jones, Garrett Bradbury, I'm not necessarily sure are candidates for long-term extensions.

So Swift made the most sense if they were going to extend anybody.

All told, I think the price is pretty fair.
