My list of OL candidates at the top of this thread is hardly an exhaustive list. These are the guys I saw who I thought might be contributors here next year. I saw no "stars" on the list except for a few linemen in the mid to upper 30s who have had long and successful careers. I don't think that is what the Skins should be looking for.

I could see us bringing in an older lineman or two, along with whatever rookies we bring in. While I believe that we can and should have a competitive team next year, it will take a few years to get an appropriate mixture of talented 26-30 yo linemen, and youth. With our OL roster so out of whack(having 1 maybe 2 "real" NFL talent), bringing in older, experienced stable players for 1 or at most 2 years, will allow us to shift the roster back into a proper core group.
