For a Center he's just got to hold the guy off for a second or two. A Center is never going to be as big and strong as a typical NFL NT. Plus a Center has to have movement skills.
So I'm not so sure that Allen isn't strong enough. He had only a few games under his belt to develop when he got injured. But for all we know, the Rams still don't see Allen as their starting Center, but rather as a rather inexpensive back up.
I agree most center are over matched in that situation.
Sullivan was in the Super Bowl that's not new.
But then it makes it t even more imperative to have both Guards be above average.
Otherwise that blitz is coming to us again and again and that pocket just might get crushed real fast thru gap pressure.
We definitely need a quality guy at the pivot.
Allen as starter is a definite risk I don't want to think about.
Run game wouldn't be as great either I believe.
But then again maybe Mundnt becomes something of a FB- pulling Guard this year.
Maybe it'll be more swinging gates than hammer s in the O.
