Gene Mruczkowski, Ross Tucker or Billy Yates

The fight for the 5th interior lineman should be a pretty good one. I favor to Tucker to beat out Mruc. Stevenson has got to be a long shot for the roster. He seems perfect for the practice squad. Hochstein is a lock!

Whoa! How is Stevenson a lock?!?!

I see the line situation shaking out like this (The Pats have no need to carry more than 9.)

Mankins
Koppen
Neal
Hochstein (main interior backup)
Mruczkowski (saw plenty of time at LG when Ashworth went to FB and Mankins to LT. Is also a capable backup C)

Light
Kaczur
Gorin
O'Callaghan

I agree Hoch is a lock..even if Koppen is back, EJ can play any of the 3 positions.. Was there all that much drop off last year at C?? I don't think there was...I agree..the 5th interior will be an interesting battle..
