Center:

Long time center for the Cardinals, Lyle Sendlein, was released and is yet to be signed, the team signed A.Q. Shipley for little money, and Ted Larson currently is the backup, the team does not necessarily need a center but they could get one.

The centers in this draft are as hot as the kickers and punters, there are only a few and most of them will be signed as undrafted free agents. For the Cardinals, if the pick is right they could get a center.

-Andy Gallik, Boston College: The 6-3, 304 pound center has an instinctive nature that is often seen in NFL centers. He has great flexibility and has great burst off the line. NFL.com evaluated him as a fighter; he is a great run blocker and possesses qualities of a good center. It is hard to evaluate a center, but he has average body and build. He would be a great development piece for the Cardinals.
