I actually think Procter could be a very serviceable backup at center. I have no problem with him there. Given his shaky performance at guard last year, and the reputation he developed because of it, that bad snap to Kitna the other night just poured fuel on the fire. But actually, all in all, his performance in that game wasn't half-bad; couple mental mistakes, but nothing that more experience won't help fix. However, his solid play has been overshadowed by that one rocket-snap he made. Such is our sensationalistic attention-span.
But I actually think surrounded by Kosier and Davis, Procter could be a fine fill-in for Gurode. We'd lose some power, sure. The blocking schemes would have to change a little. Procter can't take on big DTs solo like Andre. But I think we can win some games with Cory at center, where we can hide his lack of power. I hope we never see it. But I don't envision the offense suddenly crippled if that happens.
