I would like him here. But reading that link, I think I still am most upset that we made a crummy decision w/last years practice squad.

I think ultimately our FO is satisfied with the Bridges/Heyer/Williams/Jansen battle for RT. Levi would def be an upgrade if healthy.

I think you can safely remove Jansen from the pool. They are not treating him as an option.

Jones was due to make $3M this year in Cincy. He will not be signing for chump change wherever he goes.

Just an FYI, we have over 8 mil in cap space.

I do not think an often injured player is someone we should be looking at. He had a season ending injury last year, and we have had enough of that.

All the haters on Jansen...I am one of the few that thinks he might be able to make a solid comeback this year after a year of strengthening and conditioning his injured parts. Jansen was a GREAT tackle until injuries just derailed his career. I think we might be a little shocked how much better he will be. Then again, I could be wrong. Still, want to see if he can regain his form.

I think the exorcist ankle was the nail in the coffin. I hope he comes back strong too but the rumors are that he would be on the street if it wasn't for his cap number.

I am sure I have done it, but how can you put these two points in the same reply. Your logic says we have had enough injured players, so no Levi (ok, I understand that); but Jansen can make a solid comeback since he was a great Tackle(Levi was not shabby either) until injuries derailed him.

Your basic flow then is don't get the oft injured tackle, lets count on the oft injured tackle.

We obviously are doing the Golden Corral of RT's so we might as well have a serving of Levi on our plate if we can sign him appropriately.

Agreed. He costs more to cut than keep, so he'll make the 53 man, but IMO it will be as a backup center/guard.

This is what I meant when I said finding a sutiable stop gap at RT was easier than finding a rush end. Adequate to plus OLmen come around somewhat regularly. it's why i like the Orakpo drafting and wasn't terribly disappointedwe didn't take Oher. A guy like Jones has to be looked at for us. But I don't think he brings a lot more than what we already have. If he costs us a dime more than any of the other guys i say no.
