Yeah, I'm warming up to the idea of drafting a cb in the first round now, it's just I thought the depth in this years draft screams draft a lineman. I just think Sua'Fila is going to be my annual guard I lust after like I've done for the past few years (Zeitler/Warmack). What can I say I miss Snee in his prime.

You would be okay with potentially 3 rookie OL as starters next year? All the OL taken early in the draft last year struggled big time.
Dunno why the Bucs cut Davin Joseph over Carl Nicks or Donald Penn. At least Joseph has performed.
Interested to see the moves we make. I thought Jared Allen would be a great fit for us at defensive end but were rumored to be going after Michael Johnson from Cincinnati. Also reports that Revis is on the trading block. Nothing like giving away a first rounder for a player only to get rid of them a year later.

The ideal situation doesn't exist b/c the Rams never properly planned long term for the offensive line. Long, Wells and Barksdale can start the year, but hopefully by midseason the rookies will be ready to play when Long and Wells inevitably get hurt. Depends if Robinson starts as a guard or RT. Mathews can play all over the line, so that could make him more valuable to them
They're expensive as fuck to keep, basically have to draft at this point.

Another free agent going to the patriots.
Deal with Johnson is agreed apparently. 5/44
It's nuts. So many teams have awful OL situations. I think a lot of presumed early second/late first linemen will be getting drafted high. I kind of want Robinson/Martin at 2/13 but wonder if Martin will still be there

It's a little weird that the Packers don't seem to value a good center a whole lot. At least a consistent one who will play season after season. Sometimes I forget that Jeff Saturday was a thing.
Offseason is fun brother!! Just wait until draft day!!
I could see OD in Green Bay or Baltimore.
Ravens because of Kubiak
Packers rumored to be interested in Graham. Don't think Texans cut OD if Graham wasn't likely to resign. Packers give him one year "prove it" deal and OD gets to go home. Daniels is also emergency QB and you don't know when that chip on Rodgers shoulder will dislocate it,

No one can give a 15 yard cushion quite like Mike Mitchell!

We need more obese quarterbacks now that Freeman has fallen from grace.
Well we always have Stafford.
Ehhh... the draft is fun, but free agency is always more focused on the NOW. So the chaos is fun. Teams getting players who are looking to make a difference, key pieces moving all over the place etc etc. Draft is about the future, wondering how picks will pan out over their careers.
That's not a real tweet.

First day of FA is my favorite time of the football year outside of opening day.
Makes too much sense for it not to happen. I think this is our first one completed.
EDS is going to get overpaid because of the market for centers. He is basically it. Ted is sometimes willing to overpay guys, but he is never willing to overpay linemen.
Talk that Chris Myers may be released. Packers tried to get him as a FA a couple years ago.

Seriously? You're going to trot out Snee as a starter? Please tell me that's a joke.

They didn't update his page just to cut him, did they?

He's from Boston College and Coughlin's son in law, you know he isn't starting unless says doesn't want to. I'm more upset about the Boothe at center thing. As long as they draft a good guard or get a strong fa center, I'd be okay with it.
