I know Sean Payton has his ways on motivating players but are we really certain Warford is all but gone? This is a contract year for him and guys usually "rise up" to the challenge when they expect to get paid.

With our current crisis, there will be no OTA's for Ruiz to get acclimated to his new role. IMO that is risky for any rookie. Especially at center.

I'd hold on to Larry ... at least through mid season training camp.

Payton has an asset, well, two really. Warford and Ruiz. Injuries happen, teams get desperate. We could shop him now all the way up to the trade deadline.

I'd hate to get into the tournament and then make the switch of McCoy to Guard and Ruiz to Center...

Ruiz keeping his jersey no. in the 50s is significant, because according to NFL Rules, he's got to be a center (but he can be a center/guard)...

That said, if there's going to be a change, it will happen up front, that way the offensive line will have get seasoned and will gel so things are clicking come tournament time...

One reason I'm intrigued with the Joe Bachie signing, sure Bachie had a number of teams he could have signed...

But he and his agent were aware enough to look at rosters and identify opportunities where he can contribute...

That kind of awareness says he can see the bigger picture and it will permeate in his game on the field...

After watching what Corey Littleton (undrafted coming out of WA) did in 3 short years, I'm not sleeping on any players at camp. We have 3 linebackers coming off serious injuries so anything is possible for a undrafted guy.
