"looking to start an import at OC" is overstating, I think.  Rather than "looking", I think the proper term is "considering".

Eli has stuck with the team for years, and he's not the worst backup C we've had.  And I believe fully that he had a shot at winning the spot.

I've always wondered why OT is an import spot in general, but C isn't.  There are so many INT C's and the shotgun is the same, US vs. CAN.  Yes, calling the blocking schemes is different, but there is no reason an OG can't do that, in fact, I am surprised that they don't on every team.

So, NAT OG's calling blocking for each side, INT C focused on getting the ball to the QB.

Not rocket surgery.

I'd challenge the " considering " comment". It was a given IMO just as the 3 Canadian receiver plan. That and Kramdi to safety, switching Jones and Wilson were done deals.
