That could mean that some more cap casualties are coming -- such as P. Daniels and R. Wynn -- that would leave us even shorter on the D line. The Skins have kinda let it be know that they aren't crazy about the highly rated D linemen in the draft (Branch, Adams, etc.), so maybe they have someone (or more than one someone) ID'd in the vicinity of the 31st pick. This COULD be a good deal if we can also shore up the D line. Does anyone see a trade involving Rocky McIntosh if this deals goes down?

Tim Crowder, Adam Carriker, Anthony Spencer, Justin Harrell are all really good D lineman who could available at 31....
I said this earlier- this draft is the deepest for D-lineman that I can ever remember. Maybe we're cognizant of that and have some later 1st rd picks graded pretty highly.
I say we keep Rocky realizing that Marcus is 30 and coming off surgery, Fletcher-Baker will be 32 when the season starts, Marshall is 31, injuries are bound to happen....
