Maybe you're looking for something that isn't there. Without Dock falling into their laps do you really think the FO would have signed any real OL talent this off-season?

I doubt it.. Williams will probably be if He can get into shape.. The guy is hella-strong, with good lateral movement. We need bridges just in case Thomas goes down or to just plug a hole though.

Joe Jacoby was an undrafted free agent signing..

the best scenario..Heyer starting..and not looking over his shoulder..
the O-line will mesh...

the Skins were so right in building the Defense they way they have..a pedestrian offense can win with them...but a pedestrian offense will put both Zorn and Campbell on very shaky ground

I agree, I think Williams is the best option at rt. Bridges was good here in Carolina, and they really liked him for his versatility. I think he will be a good back up at guard. Heyer to me has had 2yrs for fo to see what he can do and I don't think he has performed well. He won't be the starting rt this year.

He signed today.

I like this. He has anger issues, which I like in a football player, could potentially land a job and he has an NFL resume.

He needs to keep his shit together; there's a lot more trouble that you can get into in DC than Charlotte.

Lotus · 05-05-2009, 10:39 PM

Just have to keep him away from alcohol. He's one of those guys who is sweet when sober but hell on wheels when tanked.

Yeah, but fewer strip clubs. lol. regulate his alcohol and let him learn from Buges and release his frustrations on opponants.

If he can stay out of trouble and focus on football I would put my early money on him being the starting RT come opening day.

Thats the key, especially since DC is a bigger city than Charlotte, which provides more distractions.

I have lived in both. I don't necessarily think that DC is going to have more distractions. More people are assholes up here and have a inflated level of self-worth so it might be easier to get into an argument but then again most of them don't have a spine so they back down pretty quickly.

If you hang around the wrong people or find the wrong part of town in any city you will get into trouble.

P.S. As far as the strip clubs, I think they are better in Charlotte. You can have lap dances (If there is a club in DC with lap dances let me know!). And definitely no pasties like the Commonwealth...

I guess we're doing the best we can. Little surprised Levi Jones didn't come available nor did any other legit starting RT talent (post draft). It seems like teams are willing to invest larger and larger amounts of their cap space at the tackle position, retaining vets w/ big contracts while still going out and drafting/signing the best available in the rookie pool. Smart football really...
