Odds on Gilbert Brown being abole to make it through a full 16 game season are probably 50-1. When really big/heavy guys get leg/foot/ankle injuries it takes a LONG time for them to recover - if they ever do - because every step they take is a strain on the leg/ankle/foot that is trying to recever. (anyone remember the fate of Tre Johnson? He went from "The Big Banga" to "The Big Oak Tree" in one knee injury.

Chad Eaton is not the answer to the d-line problems here. Chad Eaton and Reynaldo Wynn and Regan Upshaw are just about the same player. The Skins already have two of them and that is probably one too many.
