I also wonder that Clifton is insurance in case we lose out on both Bradford and Okung. I also wonder if you could move Clifton or Pashos to RT if we land Okung?
I was wondering how they get those ships in those little bottles. :confused:

I like this huge dumpoff so nescessary.
I agree with everyone we chose to let go... and let stay so far.
Ill miss a few...
Cartwright, Randle El, Thomas, Griffin... they were solid Skins.
But Its a new day.

It might be a tad bit dangerous, but I think we should draft BOTH of our tackles in the draft. Okung and Veldheer are just a beast of a tandem, and its definitely within the realm of possible. If the FO is serious about making this team younger and better, then our first two picks in the draft should be OT's, and then pick up Pike to backup Campbell for a year. We'll see what happens, but I do hope we draft Okung. Our line with him, Veldheer and a decent guard p/u in FA would go from god awful to above average. A nice turnaround for one offseason.

Ok so I for got FA started last night and I'm at lunch reading the paper. I missed all of this last night and had no clue we let 10 guys go but I was not surprised at any of the names I saw.

i don't even think that any of the guys that got cut are going to be picked up.

dont count randy out yet. he tore his other bicep this year so its not like he had a re-occurring injury.
plus he said he knew he might be cut but has prepared himself for another season, which i assume means he has stayed in playing shape and will make a go of it with someone.
Randy Thomas - No
ARE - Probably
Collins - Probably
Smoot - Probably
Mason - No
Grif - Yes
ARE will definitely get a call from someone. Collins, meh probably not unless Saunders wants him. Smoot, yeah probably. Griffin, probably unless he decides to retire. Thomas if he's 100% might get a shot somewhere as a backup. Perhaps an August signing if somebody is desperate. Betts might get a call if he's healthy.

Not sure how that can be dangerous...more like the solid move. Right now we have 0 legit LTs on the roster and 1 RT who I think will struggle mightily in the zone blocking scheme. WE NEED YOUNG, LEGIT OT TALENT more than anything you could possibly imagine.

I was thinking the same thing, especially with Pike. We do need a FS though.
