The Other Centers

[CleveSteve]

I'd want to see a guy actually play center in a game before expecting him to contribute there. Snapping the ball is only a small part of what makes the center position different than any other spot in the line. JMO.

Quite a few guards get moved inside to center when they come to the NFL. Its not something that is "rare" by any means. Shorter right guard types with shorter arms that can snap a football are often the type.
