The Arizona Cardinals have a very good center in Rodney Hudson but he will turn 33 years old this year. He is still playing at a high level, but looking toward the future is not a bad idea.
Center Cam Jurgens, who played for Nebraska in college, is preparing for the NFL draft.
According to The Draft Network’s Justin Melo, the Cardinals were one of several teams to meet with Jurgens at the NFL combine last week.
Jurgens was a three-year starter at Nebraska and showed athleticism at the combine. At 6-3 and 303 lbs, he ran the 40 in 4.92 seconds.
Many see him as a Day 3 prospect, which fits the profile of lineman the Cardinals like to draft. But if they see something him, it allows them to develop him for a couple of years before Hudson’s contract expires.
