Panthers tried to trade Hartwig

General manager Marty Hurney said the Panthers tried to trade Justin Hartwig, but didn’t get an offer and released him rather than force him to play out of position.

Hurney said the Panthers had decided to move Ryan Kalil, a 2007 second-round pick, to the starting center spot and were going to let Hartwig compete for the starting right guard position. But Hartwig much prefers center, so the Panthers cut him so he could find another team that needs a center.

So does this mean that Jordan Gross won't be playing out of position in 2008 either?

do you think kalil will be better @ center than hartwig because what I saw in him when he started the first 2 games last year he looked very good better if u will to me?
