Steen and dikkerson should be the guards. Keep grooming Jurgens to eventually replace Kelce. He can back all 3 for now
I think their thought process is even as the longterm center it's still more beneficial for Jurgens to get live reps at guard inbetween Kelce & Lane rather than ride the bench waiting for an injury. So he's gonna get a legit chance to win the job and they'll take it from there.

i think they are giving cam a "shot" but somebody made a good point, cam at guard is one thing, kelce at center is one thing, kelce at center and cam at guard is an interior size issue that maybe should not be entertained

Seumalo - 6'4 304lbs
Jurgens - 6'3 303lbs

Howie mentioned when he did the Kelce podcast how part of staying ahead of the curve is taking advantage of outliers. When the rest of the league is fading players who don't meet a certain height/weight threshold you can benefit. That's how we ended up with DeVonta at 10, signed Reddik for cheap, grabbed Nolan at 30, etc - basically they don't give a fukk as long as you can play :pachaha:

True. Another counter point was we trying to get back to the SB, do we want a rookie protecting our franchise and to be dependent on him when we ran the ball so well. I Can see both sides.

I like Driscoll as the dark horse to win that battle

Dude has always been solid and has played LT/RT in the past and with Dennis Kelly coming back, it doesn't work against him that we need him to back up if mailata/lane gets hurt were not fukked for depth at tackle

I think jurgens is the best player, but not as an undersized guard. Think steen is the future at RG and stout wanted him in the draft
