enjoy!

[SABURZFAN]

let's sign JP Losman for old time sake. :chug:

[Jan Reimers]

If we don't sign Tinoisamoa, I'd take a look at Morlon Greenwood. He's been a good 'backer for several years, and might be a good stop gap until Bowen or Nic Harris matures.

[bigbub2352]

I wouldnt mind bringin in Marlon Greenwood on a 1yr deal but i always fear the Eddie Robinson syndrome when we do that
i can still see him falling down afte pennington juked him elch!

[venis2k1]

If we cant land Pisa. Id like to see Brooks here.

still some good o-lineman out there:

Jonas Jennings(notes), Wayne Gandy(notes), Melvin Fowler(notes) and Jason Whittle(notes).

[ServoBillieves]

Ebenezer Ekuban is still on the market? That's the biggest shock for me...

Melvin Fowler???????????????

That was so embarrassing to watch.

[Throne Logic]

Is this list accurate? Jennings is out there as an unsigned LT? Did I miss something in recent months? Is he damaged goods? Why wouldn't he be a better option than Levi Jones, who we know cannot pass a physical.

Same questions apply to Kevin Carter. Heck, bring him in for a look see. He's got to be a better option than McCargo for the rotation.

Jonas Jennings?

He's played only 7 games total the past 2 seasons. He's made of glass.

I wouldn't go near Jennings.

[whkfc]

Jennings is not the same player he was when he was here.

[Throne Logic]

Jonas Jennings?

He's played only 7 games total the past 2 seasons. He's made of glass.

I wouldn't go near Jennings.

OK, that clears things up a bit.

How is his injury issue any more of a concern than Levi Jones' issues?

I actually don't know anything about Jonas Jennings, other than he is always on the injury report.

Jennings's problem is that he can never stay on the field. It's a career issue with him. As for Levi Jones, I believe he should be fine once his injury heals (e.g. Marcus Stroud). He should be good to go once he is able to pass a physical.
