The New York Jets<\/a> will enter training camp with lots of continuity across the offensive line<\/a>. Four of five projected starters are returning in the same roles from last year.<\/p>\n

Olu Fashanu and Armand Membou are the bookends, Josh Myers is at center, and Joe Tippmann is the right guard. The new addition is Dylan Parham at left guard<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tippmann was once developing at center, but kicked to guard last offseason following an injury to Alijah Vera-Tucker. The veteran Myers now starts there.<\/p>\n

If the Jets are looking for a long-term alternative to Myers, trading for a young center should gain consideration from general manager Darren Mougey.<\/p>\n

The Seattle Seahawks<\/a> may have just the candidate. Backup center Olu Oluwatimi could get traded this offseason, according to ESPN<\/a>. With Oluwatimi entering the final season of his four-year rookie contract, he’d be cheap to acquire as potential competition for Myers at training camp this offseason.<\/p>\n

Oluwatimi lost a position battle to Seahawks starter Jalen Sundell last offseason. He’s now viewed as excess in a crowded Seahawks position room. Oluwatimi has made 13 career starts at center. He’d offer the Jets an ascending alternative option at a position where the starter (Myers) has hit his ceiling.<\/p>\n
