I think a lot is that at this point few teams pick up OL off the waiver wires (unless they need a long term fix for the season...which we do) because unless they're starting or first off the bench OL don't offer much versatility in that they can't play special teams. All that said, it does seem like this year there are some pretty decent candidates out there
This is the crux of Vinnie's bias against drafting OL help. And hey I understand it, BUT, there are 31 other practice squads to pull from, there are several proven LT's to pull from, and it doesn't cost you any popularity points to bring guys in for tryouts. I so want to defend something about this organization. I really really really want to, but as 53 said, the question has to be asked "does ANYBODY know what they are doing?".

The only benefit of the doubt that I can think of is that L. Jones & L.Walker both might've asked for $ that the skins aren't willing to pay. Maybe danny has set spending levels low after paying Hall & AH.
(or better yet, he looked up a lot of old warpath threads about "vet minimum" offers & thought that sounded good)

We need to move Rogers now. Odds are against us in trying to sign him to a long term deal in the offseason, especially since we gave Hall a big deal. We should at least get a second for Rogers, I would hope for a first. Two firsts would be great for the skins in rebuilding the o-line and possibly QB.

I've been surprised by that too, as well as Langston Walker not getting a call.
They need to look at both of them. But knowing the FO they are probably looking at skilled players.

Trade Vinny for Matt Millen.

If they wanted them they could get them both. Sign some deal with stipulations that they would get a nice bonus and be rewarded with a nice contract next year in a uncapped season................

I doubt that.

Completely different subject but sure, but not to the extent that she said. He probably tried to keep her from leaving wasted, she was probably leaving wasted because they were arguing.. all speculation but it's what I figure happened.
