Who is Maurkice Pouncey - Highlights, Stats, Draft Stock, & More

Maurkice Pouncey is a highly rated prospect for the 2010 NFL Draft. Teams love his versatility. He anchored the Florida offensive line as the center... but could also play guard effectively in the NFL. Look for a team like the Colts to look at drafting him in the 1st round because of this versatility.

The middle of the offensive line. The anchor. The line caller. The ball handler. The Center. Call it what you want... but the center of the offensive line... of the offense... is where it all begins. Before a play there are tons of responsibilities put on the center... which player is coming and which is not. Switching in and out of blocking schemes... a center must be smart. The Quarterback and Center have similar pre snap responsibilities... and when done properly (see Indianapolis) it can make all the difference. In this years class Maurkice Pouncey holds the top spot.
