I'm glad to hear that Harris isn't a lock/front runner; I think he's over rated.
Yeah, he has scheme familiarity and yes he's young but he's also injury prone.
I can't imagine why we would want Jammal Brown over some of the other FA OTs.
He's older; he's essentially playing out of position and may want a good amount of money.
I think we should be able to do better then a RT who was barely more effective then Stephon Heyer.
If Heyer basically matched Jamal Browns level of play and can play OG in a pinch he's a cheap versatile swing OL; I would re-sign him. (Yes, I said re-sign Heyer)
Heck, I would be okay with a journeyman brought in to compete with Clint Oldenburg as I would be with Jammal Brown and Ryan Harris.
Journeymen: Basically looking for the FA versions of our own Monty/Licht guys that got a chance to play and played well enough to garner a look as a starter:
Pat McQuistan
Ryan Cook
Longshots to bring in to compete for the job:
Rashad Butler (scheme familiarity w/ Kyle in Houston but only 4 career starts)

They really do like Brown and hope to keep him. Personally, I think part of it is "we can't lose both Donovan and Brown after last year's trades" but that's just me. There was a time when Brown and Harris was what they were targeting, as in go after both. Now it looks like Harris is more of a secondary option. The plan with Brown all long was to let him test the market first, but it appears Brown doesn't want to. Or maybe there's no market out there for him.
I'd be stunned if Yanda leaves Baltimore
Keep hearing Gaither to Dallas or maybe the Bears (I think it was the Bears)
Your starting C opening day is likely Rabach, unless they can get a guard to allow Montgomery or Kory L to move inside
