He's played solid for the Eagles. 6' 7" 330. Good pass protector. UFA next year. Thoughts?

Going after LeCharles Bentley and drafting an OT would be the best thing this team could do at this point. Bentley can play G or C. There's no way we get Hutchinson.

"isn't he like old?"

Maybe, but I'll take Runyan's 10 years over Teague's 8.

I'd say good riddance to both - I'd rather get younger at the position.

that was the logic behind drafting Mike Williams and look where it got them

Well, we won't have TD here screwing up now will we?

Of all the OL needs we have, RT is probably the least of them. Peters has played quite well for someone who's learned the position recently.

Maybe, but steady vet leadership on the OL is needed. Move Peters to LT – Williams isn't playing anyway when he's out there. Only thing is, he'll probably want near $5 mill a year like he's getting now.

maybe we can kindly remind him of his age - and he'll take 3.75 a year.

Unless Ferguson falls in the draft I don't think OT is a huge need for us. We need guards alot more then we need tackles in my opinion.

why can't tackles convert to guards?

I think that Mike Gandy will make a damn good RT. That's where he belongs, and then our best offensive lineman should go to LT. Jason Peters. :up:

If were gonna overpay for a guy on the wrong side of 30, Id rather get Verba. But I doubt we go the old vet route

Amen! We can easily draft a STUD RT prospect in the 2nd round or maybe even later! Its all based on the thought that Peters can play LT, which is a VERY safe bet to me. He owned Peppers and Taylor on the right side (Taylor moved around to his side a few time).

LT- Peters, RT-Gandy with a youngster liek TrueBlood, Justice, or even Randy Hand, or Ryan O'Callaghan, I LIKE it.
