When we drafted him, and then signed Nick Easton... I figured there would be a real competition between them at Center to replace Unger. Especially since the Saints gave Easton a 4 year deal with middle of the pack starter money ($22 M) for a G/C... and also traded up to get McCoy... I assumed both would get a shot all preseason to earn the starting job at C.
We signed Easton prior to the draft so we didn't know McCoy would fall to us in the 2nd.
