Capers is no great shakes (never was, really), but I really like the Willie Smith UDFA signing, and think he could be worth a 53 man roster spot. I also really liked Xavier Fulton in the 2009 draft, and think he could be in line for a spot here.
There are, I think, two spots available for players who didn't make the team last year at the OL position (not including Chester), but potentially a third since Artis Hicks is hardly a lock to be back. So plenty of opportunity to bring in youth.
