Yahoo and other sources have been saying that the Skins are looking hard at left tackel L.Davis who played last season for Arizona. Is this as back up or can he be moved to Dockery's spot? What do you all think of this?

i cant imagi ne a solid left tackle would be cheaper than a solid left guard. in fact i know davis would be more than dock. might as well just keep dock then.

Good question. I think Dielman will command more money and probably deservedly so. But the gap won't be that big

Jason Lacanfora reported that Davis will be in to Redskin Park today or Saturday. So there maybe more to this then meets the eye. He also said that the Cowgirls are making a strong run at him!

Leonard Davis - Updated, Second Time
Looks like Leonard Davis could be in the house tonight when the Skins take their free agent entourage to the Wizards game. They want to bring him in; not sure if he is in Dallas first, but the Skins are pushing for him. Sounds like the Dockery thing is not panning out perhaps.
Just got off the phone with someone very close to the situation. Davis in indeed in another city as we speak - Dallas I believe- but I heard there is a "75-80 percent" chance he could be in Washington soon. The Redskins are indeed his next free agent visit destination, if in fact he makes another trip. I hear his agents are talking to 4-5 teams and fielding lots of calls, so it's possible he signs with another team while still on this first visit.
As for other O Line stuff. I hear nothing new between the Skins and Todd Wade lately and, considering what it would take to sign Dock or Davis, they probably won't be able to do much there. Dockery has been working out in Atlanta, and I was told he is currently in Buffalo. Again, not looking good for a re-sign there, but never say never with the Skins.
Also, Ladell Betts said he has been told nothing about being dealt, but realizes some rumors persist. Said he speaks to his agents daily and they have never mentioned anything, but I also hear that the jets and Broncos have some serious interest in him.
Stay tuned.

This does make much sense to me. Like RedskinPete said before, would he move to guard or be a backup? Is it possible that they would ask Jansen to move inside?
