Hey now, some good news. I've been hard on Brandel, but he never looked better as a Viking as he did his time at center. Backup? Or starter? I can't imagine Ryan Kelly will be here next season. Battle between Brandel and Jurgens for starting center for 2026? Or is that too ambitious?

Not too ambitious.
The way he handled Center in London, without any notable hitches, was a bright spot. Especially when you consider he had never played Center in the NFL.

Draftniks say next year is deep in OL....But if we have Kelly backfill already in house?

Giddy-up I say.

6-8 draftable Cs this year. 2 could easily go second round if not earlier. 

But, they definitely have 2 in house as Kelly drifts off into retirement before his brains turn to mush.

He didn't play  center in high school or college. 

He didn't play a snap at guard either.

That last name seems familiar.

I still think Huber should be moved to center, but it's good that Brandel now has experience at every position on the line. I wonder sometimes if we might not be better off with Brandel instead of Skule on the outside. Hopefully O'Neill is back this week making that a moot point.
