I'm not going to overpay for a 34-year old (next June) center, potentially on a full-fledged decline and/or beginning to break down as he gets older. Not when Manning is entering the second half of his career, no thanks. Some team with money to spend and a desire to not suck will though, they'll outbid the Colts and other interested teams by a good deal. There's just too much money out there not to.
I'd much rather invest money in younger players like Marlin Jackson and other players on the roster/defense, personally. Saturday isn't the only free agent after 08 or 09.
