Free Agency:

We actually showed a lot of depth at OL last year. At the end of the season we down to what amounts to #4 and #5 on the depth chart at T and had gone through 3 different guys at LG and 2 at C.

While Winston would be nice, I'm not sure Smith can't move over the RT spot after the solid performances he had after a shaky start in subing for Williams. Hurt did well filling in for Kory after he settled down as well. Both guys are a year older and experienced at this point so should be better yet.

Could we do better? Probably. But if it doesn't happen I'm not nearly as worried as I was last year when we were staring at the terminally immobile Grossman as the starter.

Late dinner tonight at Morton's in Reston. Royal is there with our GM and coaches.

About OL...

If we can get something of a steal in FA, we will take it. But look for OL to be a major target in the draft.

That is what I was figuring. OL and DBs with those picks in the 3rd and 4th rounds.

he's coming off injury plaged season also ..will be the same as jamal...also why not pick up terence newman at a good price and put him in the safety slot ...he's a pretty big guy and fast ,he's up there in age but doesn't have to keep up with young WR 's just sit back and lay them out ..thoughts !

"Marcus was cleared to resume play this past Friday by orthopedic neck & spine specialist Dr. Craig Brigham," Keels tweeted. "Marcus is in good spirits and has a great appreciation for the Chargers organization. He is looking forward to getting back to football."

This tells me he'll be ready. Could play either Tackle spot. Then again, he could wind up being expensive. I'd rather have Winston but if Shanny decides to go with Brown for another season then you DRAFT his replacement.

Meachem signed with San Diego. He can now under achieve w/ Rivers instead of Brees!

good point , but your right expensive ...i think we have depleted our funds !unless we let go of cooly , jabar ,and moss ..nicks wants 8 to 10 mill a year ..another thing he's young 25 or 26 !

Josh Wilson's not the only one sending Fletcher some love from a fellow team mate. This is from Adam Carriker.

Edit: I go get all excited about this damn Twitter account and Jimbo beats me to it!

 

[Lanky Livingston]

I highly doubt we were ever seriously in them. Giving a guy like that a ginormous contract is not Allen's M-O.

I think Mike was referring to Terrance Newman. I certainly wouldn't want him, even as a Safety.

Seeing as it's way past this old fart's bedtime, the only thing I'll beat you to for the remainder of the night is getting to sleep first.

Especially since I am about to report that Schefter is saying Brandon Merriwether is coming to Washington to meet with us tomorrow. :

Just heard the Bears signed Jason Campbell to a 1 year deal.

 

[Bulldog]

Looks like Royal is shopping our offer at the 11th hour.

Let him go to Buffalo for those confederate dollars.

Hope he likes the weather.
