let's talk center ... Sat released from Indy
 

I personally think Rabach had an off year and can bounce back. But Saturday would be a heck of a center too. Thoughts on Rabach and making a run for Sat?

Well, he wasn't released right? I thought he was an unrestricted free agent. Given his importance to the team and his strong relationship with their QB I think the Colts will still make a strong push to re-sign him, assuming he doesn't get a lights out offer from someone else.

That's not to say he can't be had but the thread title is perhaps a little misleading.

Well given the fact that...

a.) Saturday is 33 and we're supposed to get younger
b.) I think there are cap consequences if we released Rabach

I don't think that Saturday is an option for our team.

However, I do think it is very interesting that the Colts allowed him to test free agency, given the fact that he's been a very important player in that offensive line. I would see him being a good fit in a team that has a young offensive line, in need of a veteran presence.

In the free agent thread he is listed as a UFA and the article from ESPN makes it seem like he's a UFA.

NO. We have enough expensive 30+ O-linemen on the downside of their careers.

The article that you posted makes it seem as though he may be back with the Colts.

Thank You!

Re: let's talk center ... Sat released from Indy
 

hes good because he's been playing in the same offense for 9 straight years, and is a 10 year vet like our other guys, so no let him do well in indy than do bad here..

Pass. Get Mack!!

... i don't think there's any money to dabble in FA at this point.

Re: let's talk center ... Sat released from Indy
 

If we get a FA center it's got to be Jason Brown from Baltimore. He's 25 and coming into his own.

Re: let's talk center ... Sat released from Indy
 

Saturday is not the answer but it's clear that Rabach will have to go if not this year, then next. he's average at best.

Amen to that. Hey, I'm 37 maybe they would consider me to come in and play LG, CB or QB...I mean, I obviously meet the teams age requirement. Maybe I can replace Chris Horton as Safety, he's way too young to play for the Skins. I'd play for the vet min...lol!

HAIL!!

let's get birk and runyan while we're at it. we can assemble the best OL available... from 1997.

jahri evans or khalif barnes are the only ones young enough and good enough for us to bother with.

Re: let's talk center ... Sat released from Indy
 

I agree with everyone else, too old and too expensive. Good player, and I know that we probably need an upgrade from rabach, but saturday is not what we're looking for right now...
