Good choice but want to throw out two excellent #50s from the past.

Jim Collins (second round pick out of Syracuse) was a tackling machine as a 3-4 ILB in the early ‘80s but injuries diminished and shortened his career.

The Packers had a future HOF at center in the early ‘60s in Jim Ringo (cool name). So Lombardi was kind enough to trade his back-up to the Rams.

Ken Iman started at center for ten years (until the mid-70s and did not miss a game).

The Rams transitioned from Iman to Rich Saul to Doug Smith. Three quality centers for a 25 year period.

If they play this year and Blythe is at center, that would make three guys in three years.

I always liked Tino. The end of this Rams run was right around the time I joined ramstalk and didn't understand all the hate towards him.
 
Correction from above. Jim Ringo was no longer with the Packers when Iman came to the Rams.
 
I start at Center, I wish we had a modern Day Ken Iman!

Huge fan of Tinoisamoa. Met him once, and he was a good guy for sure. Apparently, he had so-called "character issues" and wasn't supposed to be drafted highly. He proved everyone wrong after he got drafted; he was the best player we got from that class, and that included Kevin Curtis and Shaun McDonald (and I guess Jimmy Kennedy, although the less said about him, the better.)
 
Bruh loved me some Pisa! Amazing name and cool ass dude!

F'n 15 yard Ray Ray! lol Remember him on the Raiders when we played them and he gave us one for sure but want to say another 15 yarder as well that helped us win! lol
