Four Cs doesn't provide a vote of confidence in Deiter's development.
Sure doesn't appear that way- unless this is for the PS but...
Im surprised they are also working out a long snaper

I'm guessing this is all practice squad guys? Deiter should be able to take these guys lunch money pretty easily. He wasn't great last season but he certainly doesn't deserve a cut.

Deiter has never played a snap at Center in the NFL (that I'm aware of).
Might be to see who is out there in case Karrass gets hurt, and Deiter sh!ts the bed filling in for him?

People read to much into this stuff. We don't know who's hurt either and they're just doing their homework
This may be to see if we can improve the talent, and or reviewing possibilities for practice squad and injuries during the season.
Yeah, I mean bring in one guy you might be excited about to kick the tires like what you did with the LS in case there's a COVID need down the road...but 4??? That seems like at the very least you are not satisfied with what you have now.
Maybe that's the point though....to light a fire under Deiter...not make him think he's won anything...force him to continue to make strides and not be comfortable.
....or they are scared of his early camp center-QB exchanges which resulted in fumbles with Tua and they want to upgrade because he hasn't gotten much better at it.

I'm guessing they want to add a developmental center to the practice squad.
Sounds like business as usual. Bringing guys in and kicking tires. No big deal.
Hard to say if this is because Deiter isn't developing or if it's because we don't have a 3rd option on the roster right now since Calhoun was cut. Basically, because of COVID, having three or four levels of backup plans is not a bad idea. But again, not sure if this is because Deiter isn't picking up the Center position, or just needing to have another backup plan. I would think if it was because of Deiter they wouldn't have waited till 5 days before the season starts to address a better backup.

Ted Karras signed a 1 year, $3,000,000 contract with the Miami Dolphins, including $3,000,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $3,000,000. In 2020, Karras will earn a base salary of $3,000,000, while carrying a cap hit of $3,000,000.
Karras is a rental. We may keep him... or we may not. If he has a good year, he could be expensive to resign.

Dieters play last year does not inspire much but i actually like his potential
