Guys, guys, we don't need an OL, we have RGIII. His line was "terrible" at Baylor (LOL).

It'd be nice to see Kory get some preseason reps, but as I brought up yesterday the focus on him and Hightower is really to be ready for the regular season.

Jammal is Jammal, we'll see what the MRI says today. I've heard it's not expected to be anything serious. But at this point who can really say anymore. I think everyone knows he's on a short leash. I also think people forget we also got Niles Paul in that Saints trade.

James Lee is pretty much non-existent, which is disappointing but I don't think much was expected of him

It's natural for teams to have more WRs than OL, particularly in camp because of special teams.

The real concern, in my opinion, is Willie Smith. I'm not so concerned about his injury. I'm concerned about what caused his injury. Getting abused by Rob Jackson. He's been getting abused a lot this past week. For a guy expected to take that next step he's taken a few too many back

I think you set yourself up when you depend on UDFAs to "take the next step."

You have drugs on your mind way too much.

Anyway, Alexander HAS played O-line, so in an extreme emergency...why not? He's our 4th QB and 3rd punter too.

Problem is he lost about 25 lbs this offseason to play LB. He's now at 244.

Ever team has holes and ever team has injuries it is how the team works around them that ultimate decides their success or lack of.

One could argue having better receivers that run good routes and get open faster thus allowing the QB to release the ball faster is a level of protection as well.

Lorenzo Alexander is more likely to play TE on offense now than OL

The sky is falling guys!!


I think our OL played pretty decent the last half of last year. This is considering we had 2 of our main starters out. The only thing that is really a issue at this point is quality depth. I think we'll be better than what people are making it out to be.

Given the many OT's drafted early this year, perhaps there will be a veteran who is surprisingly cut over the next few weeks. I'm not talking about an All-Pro but someone good enough to stabilize RT for a few weeks or even for just one season. John Runyan from a few years ago comes to mind as an example of such a cut.
