Rooting for Alex Mack
-
First off, thanks for deleting my user name assbags
I am a huge Cal Berkeley fan and I am pretty pleased Mack ended up in Cleveland. I think he will be the center you guys were expecting from that kid from New Orleans a few years back.
They guy is absolutely awesome in both the run and pass. He is a big reason why Cal's running game has been so strong. He plows holes big enough for me to gain five yards a rush! Okay, maybe not that big...
Has he been annointed the starting center or is he battling for the spot? Have they tried sticking him at guard?
Looks like we are playing again this year. 🥷

Early indications are that he has the inside track to the center position. But, as with all rookies, it's a work in progress. He's bigger, stronger, and more athletic than the incumbent Hank Fraley. And, he's extremely bright... a characteristic that Eric Mangini covets. So his odds are pretty good. It's really just a matter of assimilating all of the new information. Seeing Hank Fraley working at guard in OTA's leads me to believe that Alex is on his way to a rookie starting spot.

At first I didn't like the pickup, to be honest I never heard of the guy. But after seeing the film, I love this pick. I like Fraley he's a good dude, but he was a weak link. I think this pick just bolstered our line for 5+ years.

Well taking a center with #1 pick ....he dang well better bolster this line for 10+ years.

If he stays healthy, there is no reason he should not dominate. He is a powerful run blocker who should open huge holes for your backs. He played in the zone blocking scheme in college, what system does Cleveland run?
The only weakness in his game right now is, when he hits the 2nd level, he tends to drive himself to the ground with the defender instead of staying on his feet. He's an extremely intelligent kid and he has developed through hard work as he is not the greatest athlete around. His technique is top notch and he was far and away the best center to come out in years.

Im really looking forward to watching this kid develop i had never heard of him before we drafted him but i watched a lot of game footage of him and seen him as what most scouts think is the choice pick for center of the decade..he seems to be doing very well in the voluntary camps i think he was a worthy pick in a vital position fraily cant handle well...

Dustin Fry, center from Clemson, working with the first team this afternoon.
Per OBR Tweets from the camp.

How many times does it have to be explained. Mangini doesn't have a 1st team 2nd team ect mentality at this point in camp. he puts 5 guys out there together and sees how they work together.Good lord I am begining to hate technology....
Dude, nobody is upset or worried, its just some camp stuff. No biggie. We get it.

As expected, Mack has struggled a bit but had a solid practice today. I haven't seen him in any of the groupings as a guard. I think the feeling is he has enough on his plate learning to calls the center position.

Mack is the human drill, though he wouldn't fit many finesse offenses.

Hey, I didn't delete anything- good to see you back. I'll be surprised if Mack isn't the starting center by opening day.

Yes Mack will do fine and Hank will be a good back up. Its good to have depth.

Wednesday morning:
- Rookie C Alex Mack had a nice pancake block on DL Shaun Rogers

I hope we cut Hank because Hadnot can also play center
-
To anyone who has attended camp, has Mack been playing much guard and if so how has he been doing?
Now that Hadnot could be out of the picture, What if the best combo is Fraley, Mack at C, RG.
Right now my guess is Thomas, Steinbach, Mack, Tucker, St. Clair, but I was just wondering about Mack at guard.
-
How's Mack coming along? Wish we drafted him... even at #7 over DHB. Shoot..!

Sports Illustrated has Alex Mack as first half of the season afc all-pro!
