i think wade played some guard at Houston. but i also think he had some injury issues. man, i hope this works out. towards the end of last season, the dirt bags were playing as good as anyone in the league

I'm not sure how a career RT is all of a sudden going to be thrown in at LG. This has disaster written all over it. But Gibbs mentioned that they were happy with some OL they picked up at the end of last year. He said they fit in real well with what we do. I have no idea who these players are.

I'm just glad they didn't go out and overpay the first name they recognized to replace him. Wade looked great against N.O. last year. I think if yu can play tackle you can play guard, so we can move Wade or Jansen down the way.

How much you want to bet Dockery is overweight and gets hurt in Buffalo next season?

Probably because he is under contract here.

He was a solid player and a starting tackle until he got hurt. We took a chance on him and it looks like that will pay off.
