Idk why people are so high on him. I'd say its an Alabama thing, but with guys like Fluker, Andre Smith, and Chance Warmack being the banner carriers, I don't think it's that. He isn't a terrible run blocker, but I wouldn't trust him enough in pass sets to leave him at tackle if I could avoid it. I think Ramczyk and Bolles should go ahead of him and a couple of the guards should too. I'm 99% sure Wagner walks so they'll definitely need to replace him. The FA RT class isn't actually that bad behind Wagner. If we could get a cheap guy like Vollmer, Menelik Watson, or an even lower guy like Jordan Mills to compete with Lewis, I think they'd be in good shape.

Resigning Orr then coming back next year to try and retain Mosley is so 2003.

More suprised by Hooker at 3. Thats a guy I guess that I need to look at more.

His tape isn't that special though. He needs something else to get him back into Round 1. I think that showing himself as coachable and getting face time in with the Browns and Bears (or whoever is coaching) would have been the best way to do that.

Cam Robinson's lack of quality play will probably keep Ozzie from drafting Robinson in Round 1 or 2.

I think if he wants to do something about the QB or 2 that'll probably go ahead of him, he should have gone to Mobile.

Id be interested in Walker. I'm not sure the 4-3, 3-4 framing really applies to the defense since Pees has always run a lot of 4 man fronts anyway.

Because he is paid more and plays worse than Zuttah

Im pumped. Theres a ton of talent there this year it looks like.

Yeah. He's just been one of those guys who has had controversy follow him everywhere.

I think that's been the kind of prospects the FO has chased for a while and sometimes its worked out (Yanda, Osemele) sometimes it hasn't (Gradkowski, Myers, Oher). It's been a pretty good blueprint, but it's been difficult to project the future of players like that coming out of college.

I think the team (and fans) would take him back at a reasonable value- 6.8mil/year is probably where that line would be drawn. I personally think the open market could drive his price over 9mil/year, so I'm not really expecting him back if he isn't signed in the next couple months. I have no major complaints about his play, the situation is somewhat similar to the Osemele situation the team had last year, where it's a guy who stabilizes the line when healthy, but has only played one full season- in which he did struggle with injury. Another problem is that even when he did play he was hurt a lot of the time and that affected him. Osemele's situation was a little different in that he was expected to get starting LT money at this point before FA, and I don't think Wagner will get paid like LT money- but the hip, new Dallas/Oakland blueprint muddies the water. So I guess to summarize, I'd be sad to see him go because he is an above-average NFL lineman and has done a lot for this team, but he isn't really the special talent that some team will probably pay him to be if he hits the open market.

I could see Eddie Royal as the kind of receiver that gets brought in. Bears can save 5mil by cutting him.

I actually think Belichick overdrafted Cyrus Jones by a lot which prevented the Ravens from getting him, but it might have led to Tavon getting drafted, so i have no complaints. I haven't looked in depth at Humphrey yet, but from what Ive seen he isn't in the same territory as a guy like Wilson or Sidney Jones. Canady is intriguing, but I'm not sure he'll ever be anything but a special teams player.

Marlon Humphrey probably should have stayed another year, but a lenghty Alabama corner is Ozzie-bait for better or worse.

I think it's definitely possible. Don't get me wrong, I'd prefer to keep Wagner, but with left tackles and now guards getting larger and larger contracts. It's only a matter of time until right tackles start getting their piece. Teams are desperate for OL help. Thats why even mediocre guards like J.R. Sweeney are getting almost 7mil/year.

I only cut Dumervil, Wright, Watson, Arrington on that list.

I gave up on predicting OL contracts when the left guard who never played a full season got 12mil/year.

Gregg Rosenthal of NFL.com thinks that Wagner could get 10mil/season. I think that's a nightmare scenario, but considering the lack of decent offensive linemen in the market, the success of teams with good lines, and the amount of cap space teams have, it's definitely not impossible.

Having Weddle makes the Ravens an ideal replacement team for disgruntled chargers fans.

I think there's too many obstacles to overcome to make it work.

I think Ben Boulware is just Scooby Wright breaking NCAA participation rules.

Oh yeah he's done good, that Bama DL is beast too.

I wouldn't want Scott. Takes too long to get his punts off, NFL those gets blocked all the time. Plus Koch is a lot better with placement anyway.
