If Bowanko is one of the starting five, then it's probably him at center and Linder at RG.

Not after Linder got big center money! Probably not a lot of folks remember how well Bow played at guard the few times he filled in. He even came in a few times last year on heavy run packages. He is a stout run blocker. He just happens to be a good backup center as well. I guess we'll see how things play out but they need to have the best five out there and I think Bow is one of them.

The money doesn't matter.  There's a guard in Oakland making $58 million.  Just get the best five guys situated in the spots they'll work best together.  Doesn't matter if your RG is making more than your LT, and your back-up tackle is making more than your starting center.  Who cares? 

If they need Linder at guard, they'll put him there. (still unlikely IMO) 

I do hope that Bowanko gets some looks at guard, though. It makes sense to me.
