Some years back the Denver Broncos came into Indianapolis and kick the shit out of the Broncos with Jeff Saturday playing center. The next game, a playoff game, they move the kid from guard to center, and Saturday to guard. I can’t think of the name of the guy on the Broncos was kicking their ass on the interior line, but when they had Saturday move out the guard he ate him up. And do you think Saturday stop making line calls?

Yeah I remember that game. There is a reason the center makes line calls. You want to pass changes through two people (including a rookie) all the way to the RT before the snap? Also that was a home game where it was a lot quieter when the offense was on the field. And you don't know if Saturday did or did not make the calls, and neither was a rookie.
You're making a lot of changes in order for Pinter to play center. Just have a real backup at center until he has more experience than some offseason workouts before he is even drafted. It's the smarter route.
