I prefer to keep him for several reasons: (1) we haven't done too well in free agency lately; (2) we have more pressing needs than G and I'd like to see us spend a draft pick on an area of need; (3) Dockery will not command a huge contract; (4) unlike draft picks and free agents, Dockery is familiar with the system and our players; (5) Dockery is still young and has a lot of potential; and (6) I hate seeing us refuse to pay our own guys while freespending on other teams' guys.
I'm w/ya, except w/#3 - I fear somebody will offer him kinda big $, maybe the cardinals, they are in need of o-linemen. It will depend on what other o-linemen are available. I thin espn said it will be a thin fa crop, which makes sense since the cba was just signed & a lot of guys were cut and/or signed this past offseason. If that's the case, don't be surprised if someone is willing to overpay, we're not the only ones who do it.

I did not say he is a bust, I said he might be a bust. Everyone, Taylor, Archuletta, Rogers, and Springs have looked bad this year. But Carlos plays way to far off the receiver. When I see that, it says to me that he either does not have the speed to play the position or the agility.
Rogers' best 40 time was a 4.35. He has the speed. The coaches tell him to play that far off. Springs does the same thing. They did the same thing last year.

Well, I am not sure who's fault it is, but he has been burned repeatedly. He is lacking something.

Man I fell asleep and thought I woke up in 2004. Except that we freaking suck worse!!! This high paid coaching staff has not paid dividends! What a waste a of talent. Wake-up coaching staff, just because of your pedigree and your talent of what you have done in the past. Doesn't mean that all of the other teams in the NFL will just simply lay the f--- down for you! Yeah, that's right you actually have to get your players ready, mind body and soul to play game in and game out. What a waste!!!! And players, you don't get a pass either. Most of you guys are'nt even worthy of wearing that uniform!!!!!! Wake up and be men!! Throw this season in freaking garbage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sign him for security, but we need another randy t type guard, and by that i mean a guard the can pull effectivley. i heard that dockery lost some wieght but he still can't get out of his own way.that's why when randy went down last year our running game went down with him.saunders likes sweeps but portis , betts are forced to leave dockery behind or gain nothing.you've got 2 tackles a 310 pounds, a guard a 305 and a center at 308. then dockery at 345 or more. he's a striaght line mauler , not a pulling guard which is what we need.
