For those who want to make this about me:
Address the argument.
Heitmann good, and worthy of starting.
Heitmann not good, and not worthy of starting.
This was the premise of the argument from the beginning.
You may begin.
This isn't how it was presented at all. The main point that I was disputing was this, from your initial post.

You were implored to support this point, and you provided links. However, upon inspection,
review the content of those link did not support this point. The most effusive praise of Heitmann was given by ESPN, who said that he is the best center in the NFC West. Considering his competition, that is dubious evidence at best. Other links included comparisons to his own performance (as opposed to other centers), and a link simply stating that he was named as a team captain.
Perhaps "nearly every professional expert lauds Heitmann as one of the best centers in the NFC", but you did not support that argument.
If your point was whether or not Heitmann is a "good" player (quoted from this post, where your verbiage is considerably more measured), you would not have received any contention from me. I believe that Heitmann is worthy of being a starter and a solid center. However, that is not what was originally put forth by you.
