Will We look to up grade the OL next?
 

I ask this because I thought Chad Rinehart had a lot of up side will he get a chance at that LG spot?

Where have you been? At the end of year meetings the coaching staff basically admitted that Rinehart is probably going to be a bust.

We need one more free agent upgrade and that no question has to be on the Oline! Then draft another olineman in the first and we are much better.

Free agent upgrade can come from Dockery (well a younger player), but Jason Brown is still out there, who would be a big upgrade, but at the guard position. We could get a tackle upgrade through the draft, especially if one of the top 5 tackles is available at #13.

I don't know if we have enough room for Brown C from Baltimore, that's who they should have signed first.

LT? If we put Rinehart at left tackle you can kiss Jason Campbell goodbye.

Yeah I thought Rinehart was going to be solid, but it turns out that he is much like the rest of the first five picks from last year. Suspect.

Still have hopes for at least one of the second rounders to really step up and make a contribution next year.

Well, you edited your original post after I made that comment. Anyway, like wilsowilso said, in the winter meetings the coaches basically said Rinehart isn't a contributor whatsoever right now. I think we'll make a push for Dockery, if not I expect us to re-sign Kendall on the cheap.

Re: Will We look to up grade the OL next?
 

Too soon to write off Rinehart as a bust

They should get at least one OL in free agency and at least one in the draft.

I wonder if they're bringing Kendall back

I think maybe they are trying to light a fire or something? I mean he seriously got called out in public at those review meetings.

Between now and the preseason I think Rinehart will shape up and turn into a starter. I also think thats an unfair assessment of his skills.

Chad...it's okay. Just because you're a bust doesn't mean that you can't contribute. That is you right, Chad?

Sign Dock and Willis then they can take the BPA come draft day.
