Is Matt Slauson a competent NFL starter? That is what we are looking for in Chicago.
Was he any good when moved to C?

He is a pretty good starter. No one is ever going to confuse him with a prime Alan Faneca, but he is a quality starter.
I don't recall him ever playing center. |

I ask because I have seen pictures of him at C.

That was in the preseason with the second team. Can't really judge that. |

| He's the definition of a replacement level player. At left guard, not at center. He's only filled in there and that's been limited playing time. |

| I think he'll be a good pick up for whatever team picks him up. He wasn't treated very fairly this season but I thought he was very good when he was on the field |

I'd actually choose to keep him over Moore if I had a say. While I think he was average to above average, he's young and has steadily improved.
Continuity on the line can't be overlooked and given his age and how he's progressed, I think they should resign him.

He might work out well at RG. I like his tenacity but he's pretty limited. Would be nice to improve at LG but there are certainly worse players out there starting.

Pretty much this. He is just solid.

| Slauson's pass protection is solid but that's it. He played center few times when Mangold was tended. |
