Then we have MW Tackle/Guard as back up or spot fill in to give guys a break and the Rookie Ed Williams from Maryland who can play Center/Guard, but if one more gets injured then we will be in panick mode to get someone in and trained. That my only point. Why can't we bring in some one from another teams practice squad who is a Rookie to train? It's not like we have to look at people who are not on a team only.

They didnt just start praising Rinehart, they have been talking about him since OTA's. "He is much improved over last season" & "When he played with the starters he raised his level of play", I remember hearing both. Going forward we still have W.Montgomery(C/G), Edwin Williams(C/G), D'anthony Batiste(T), and Mike Williams(G/T) so even with another injury, we dont just bring in somebody off the street. Granted there is no O-line on the practice squad, but we do still have people to plug in. We kept the extra O-lineman so this just evens things out.
Problem is......NOBODY keeps 5 RB's on the active roster!
