Backup Cs are like NFL kickers, they all do the same thing basically. Sure, there are some really good ones like Morten Anderson (or Mutombo/Gadzuric this year in FA), but the majority of them are guys that are interchangable.

Just bring one in, give him some minutes in preseason competing with DJ, and in the end you have three guys you can play in a game at C and one in the NBDL in case of emergency.

3/3/1 (and that is rounding up!) is what the team is replacing here.
