Who said he's starting??

This guy was signed for depth because Kory L. went on IR.

LeRibeus is still the starter.

Gruden hinted at it yesterday in his press conference.

Gruden also blamed one of the sacks on Lerib cause he messed up the snap count.

This is definitely a valid point - there was also that one play a few games ago where the ref called the false start on "the entire line except the center". LeRib thought the snap count was 3 but it was 2, so everyone went except him. Completely unacceptable. It's not really much different than Griffin not knowing the offense well enough to get through his reads fast enough to run the basic scheme.

Gotta get him out of there, LeRib should be on the street. He definitely would be already if Kory wasn't hurt.

Yeah just saw that, definitely doesn't speak well for LeRib but I can't imagine this new guy being a long term solution either.

Well in all fairness Lerib shouldn't be playing center right? I agree our future center is coming this offseason.
Edit: not sure if one of his good points was versatility but yeah it does not speak well for that.

I think LeRib has been doing surprisingly well. Not great but not awful.

jamf · 11-11-2015, 07:53 PM

ESPN980 was saying LeRib was horrible and can't snap in a shotgun set.
They expect the new guy to start if he can get the playbook in time.

I saw he was having trouble the past few games with snapping too high. Didn't think he was bad at blocking though.

They were very interested in De la Puente before last season, so he's been on their radar for a while it seems

Schneed10 · 11-12-2015, 10:17 AM

I say go ahead and get De La Puente in there immediately, as long as he knows enough of the offense to not get Kirk injured. We're not winning anything this year anyway, the sooner we get him in there and learning with Callahan and Gruden the better equipped we are next year to have a contingency plan for Steiger and potentially move forward with a valid center.

Center is most def on the list for an upgrade in the offseason. Kory L effing stunk this year. MicRib sux. Ill go ahead and put it on the list:

WR - a couple
TE (blocking)
Center
Safety - a couple
ILB
Pass Rusher (Gallette hopefully)
QB
RB
CB

Remove qb, rb, and insert more oline - dline depth.

ummm no.

We need both, hopefully we get them in the draft.

Yeah, I don't see how QB is off limits, and with Morris possibly leaving, we'd likely be getting another RB on the roster this offseason.

Back to the QB position, I think Scot is going to draft his own QB in the near future. It may not be this offseason, but I think we won't go two offseasons without drafting a QB.

RG3 and Alfmo are def gone from the team in the offseason, McC gonna get his guys.

I think the #1 question facing the team this offseason will be Gruden/McVay status. I think McVay is most certainly done. Will Jay be too?
