I really hope Jason Whittle hasent been brought here to start......

Let me first off say, i like the Whittle signing...as a depth signing. I hope Marv and co arent bringing him in to start. To me he is just another Reyes or Anderson. However, he has proven he can step in and start games if a guy ahead of him gets hurt. Im not sold on him as a starter, and i hope are management isnt either.

I've also heard he can play all 5 line positions. If so this is a great depth signing, considering we have essentially no depth on the o line, especially at tackle.

At 34 this guy still has unproven potential. McNally will make him a Pro Bowler so don't worry.

At his salary, I doubt it.

He's a 32 year old backup that can play anywhere on the line in a pinch. Nothing more.

Other players have been brought in who shoulda been depth signings but now start, such as Melvin Fowler. That's why some people around here are worried about things like this. Especially when we have holes on the o-line to fill and he's the first guy brought in.

Fowler was brought in to start when the Bills were dumping Teague and was paid well.

Why make things up ?

Re: I really hope Jason Whittle hasent been brought here to start......

I was saying...Fowler should have been a depth guy...Fowler never proved he was worth being a starter in his career nor ever was really a starter prior to coming here.

That's not making up anything, that's truth.

One year deal.

Not a starter deal.

That's your opinion. My opinion is the Fowler has played better than Teague (only slightly, but still) and therefore deserved being the starter over him.

I'm actually surprised by all the complaining around here. Weren't people complaining at the beginning of last year that we needed more veteran depth on our Line? Villarial is gone and all we have are rookies right now as depth. Do you really think adding some veteran depth is a bad thing???

C'mon, nobody is saying that Whittle is the answer to our Oline holes. Just that he's good versatile veteran depth...exactly the kind we need!!!

Hey, if he was brought in as some veteran depth that's great. It's a good move, but I can understand why people are worried that he may start. I'd be worried if he was starting come Sept myself. As depth, it's a good move.

It's kind of suspicious that a team who obviously needs quality at the position over quantity, signs a quantity guy first though. That's all I'm saying and why I agree with some people being worried over it.

I like the signing for depth but if he's a starter I feel sorry JP

Re: I really hope Jason Whittle hasent been brought here to start......

McNally sucks the only thing he has done is helped Jason Peters convert to OT look at all the OL guys he has had to work with, when he was brought in he was suppose to be so great at making good OL's well he hasn't proven **** to me

[TacklingDummy]

Re: I really hope Jason Whittle hasent been brought here to start......

Whittle has experience working with McNally.

4 teams in 5 years might be a sign.

Yes it is and no it's not.
