Does anyone have a list of FA available for the O-line positions? Who would you recommend to grab? It looks like we will have cap space to spend if someone is worth it. What about draft picks? How do you rank the current Centers and other O-linemen out there?
It's hard for me to pick who to get rid of:
RT
M. Williams - Started out terrible, but played better as the year progressed. Still, something tells me he will never turn into the force that we were hoping he'd turn out to be. I really wish TD would make him take a pay cut or change his contract to be based on incentives instead. Ignoring the pay however, and just thinking of what is best for the line...might it not be better to move him to Guard?
D. Farland - Don't know how he's progressing, but didn't dress most of last year. Do we need a better backup???
RG
C. Villarrial - Played decently. But whenever he was out, we seemed to lose alot at that position. Needs a capable backup.
C
T. Teague - this is probably the biggest complaint from most people. And it's not that Teague is a bad player. It's that he's not big enough to be a *real* center. It'd be nice to draft or bring in a real, big, bulky, yet quick Center.
M. Pucillo - He's gone. One of the worst lineman I've seen. He's not even good enough to backup or be 3rd string!
LG
R. Tucker - I guess he won the fight here with L. Smith. But Tucker has been around before and never did much. So I'm wondering if he's got what it takes for long term, or is he just the type that produces every now and then. I thought he played well at C, but apparently MM and company thought he was kind of slow and not athletic enough - probably for when we pull lineman other type of plays.
L. Smith - good looking young prospect. Probably has alot to learn, but apparently has the attitude that McNally likes for the position. I look for him to fight for the position again in Camp later this year.
LT
J. Jennings - I don't want to pay too much for this guy. Sometimes he plays well, and other times, he seems to play lackadaisical. A "top" paying guy needs to be consistent.
M. Price - Good backup. Keep him. But I think he is better at backup than every week play. Still makes mistakes.
J. Peters - I love this guy. If we are worried about the TE position b'cse of injuries, I'd rather use him there. Who's going to tackle a 330 lb mad man coming at them? Even the toughest LBs and S will get hammered! Wouldn't I love to see Ted Bruski get hammered by a full speed Peters freight train! Hopefully he can fit into the offense more this year and have more plays called for him.
Besides getting rid of Pucillo, which is obvious, who would you bring in? And to replace whom?
And what happened to Justin Bannan last year? He played well that one game and they talked about using him more...but then never did? Maybe we should move him over to Offense completely this year from the start.
