Here's the top free agent Guards, IMO...

[Michael82]

Top 5 young UFA's
Damien Woody 26 (New England Patriots)
Jeno James 27 (Carolina Panthers)
Cosey Coleman 25 (Tampa Bay Buccaneers)
Travis Claridge 25 (Atlanta Falcons)
Matt Stinchcomb 26 (Oakland Raiders)

RFA's that I wouldn't mind...
Ryan Diem 24 (Indianapolis Colts RFA that will require comp.)
Rick Demulling 26 (Indianapolis Colts RFA that will require comp.)

UFA's that are solid, but 30 or over...
Chris Villarrial 30 (Chicago Bears)
Mike Compton 33 (New England Patriots)

let's not forget that carey,smiley,snee,and peterman are available for the draft too.i'd like to see us land one of these guys.

Damien Woody (the fact that he is a probowler helps)

Jeno James (carolina kept delhome pretty healthy last year)

Matt Stinchcomb (I have just heard good things about him)

My two picks if we can get them is Woody and James.

If we were able to get 2 of those younger guys I would be happy as hell!

I'd be happy signing Woody in FA, Bober as a quick first day signing and then drafting Snee or someone else in the 2nd round. Carey will be taken after our pick, and should not be picked #13 overall, IMO.

I would have a heart attack if we were able to sign both of them and I bet Drew Bledsoe would be celebrating like crazy! He'd finally have someone to protect him! Henry and McGahee will also have HUGE smiles. Both guards and very solid with the run!

Then pick up bober(sp?) we would have a solid line, but I dont think that will happen so if we could pick up those two guards and get grove in the draft that would make me happy.

If we were able to get 2 good guards I could live with Teague at center for now.

Yeah, I just saw that! Damn!

The Indianapolis Star reports it's likely the Indianapolis Colts will issue tender offers of $1.368 million to OG Rick DeMulling. The offer carries first-round draft-pick compensation should DeMulling sign with another team and the Colts do not match the offer.

49ers cut Ron Stone today. He would be a decent older guy if we can't get the young guys.

Would not be my first choice but would be a solid veteran choice over Tucker and Pussywillow.
