27yrs old - former 5th rounder- PFF grades him overall at 75... Seems a pretty solid contract for a solid LT. Not likely going to the ProBowl but I'd think we did good here given our options. [Reply]

the problem is he didn't play a whole lot at all. it's definitely a gamble but i'd honestly rather this than overpay for some scrub who will hamstring us for the next 5 years.
at minimum he provides a baseline which is something i think reid can work with. im fine with it all things considered.
Yep. Of all the options that actually made it to the tampering period he makes the most sense, given the caveat that teams are apparently sick of Cam Robinson for reasons. [Reply]
I'm cautiously optimistic, but please pair with a draft pick by the end of the 3rd. I think last year proved how important depth is and we need a development option for long term.
I know the common thought is DT in the 1st (please no DE), but if Burden or Egbuka are within range of 31... [Reply]

It opens them up for looking (again) at developmental guys in the 2nd and 3rd rounds.
And this draft isn't any better/worse than any others for those guys on the 2nd day.
Where you get yourself in trouble is if you start looking at those guys as 1st day players and they simply aren't.
If Milum or Williams or Ersery or Jackson or Mbow; maybe Belton or Grant -- hell, even that absolute giant out of BC, Trapilo, is there at the late 2nd or into the 3rd -- go ahead and give 'em a look.
Now you have some time and now you can start looking at the upside they might have long-term. [Reply]
