Lions G Manny Ramirez Fighting For His Roster Spot

Posted By: SoDev 06-29-2009 , 10:49 AM	#1

The Lions have signed four offensive linemen this offseason - Stephen Peterman, Daniel Loper, Jon Jansen and Ephraim Salaam. One of the things that might be hurting Ramirez is that the experiment of him being a backup center apparently hasn't gone well. He can't play tackle - he hasn't taken any reps there - and it's unlikely he's good enough just at guard to win a backup job there. The Lions haven't ruled out Ramirez at backup center, but the longer it goes in training camp without Ramirez getting snaps at that position, the tougher it'll be to get back in the rotation.
