Buffalo Bills head coach Rex Ryan has claimed that Eric Wood is one of the best centers in the NFL.
The 29-year-old has been a solid player in the middle of the Bills' offensive line since he was selected by the club in the 2009 Draft, and his form was rewarded two years ago with a long-term deal.
Ryan has faced Wood as an opposing coach and now that he has the player under his charge, he feels that he has comparable traits to the New York Jets' Nick Mangold.
"I think Wood is right there with the top centers in the league," Ryan told reporters. "I was blessed with the Jets to be around a great one, and he's very similar to that."
Wood has played in 79 matches in his six years in the NFL.
