JLC on possible guards

[B][URL="http://blog.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/"]The Skinny On The Biggies[/URL][/B]

[FONT=Times New Roman,times,serif]Okay, so we've been going through this in drips and drabs, so I figured I would put this list together in the search for America's Next Top Derrick Dockery.

Figure I'll use a scale of 1-66 (pretty cute, huh?) to handicap their odds of being the guy (and I totally guessing for the most part on the numbers here. So a 66 would mean this dude is the man, and a 2 would mean you are Katie Holmes):

[B]We'll start with a list of people I have heard the Skins have actually contacted:[/B]

Todd Wade - the starting tackle jobs are drying up, he was very impressive in practice last season I am told by several defensive players and he showed he ability in the start against New Orleans. The Jets remain an option but other teams thought to be potential suitors, like Baltimore, have passed: 64

Adam Timmerman - some inside the building think he's done at age 35, but he does know the system and the terminology and has been a solid starter. still, i think this would have been done by now if he was really The Guy: 59

Zach Piller - Gregg Williams would know him from Tennessee and he's drawn interest in the building. Rep for being tough and physical, which is what Buges wants, and he's represented by Drew Rosenhaus, which is the golden ticket in Ashburn: 62

Zach Wiegert - Would have to move from tackle, but the Skins seem to seeking out those guys. Has been in contact with the Skins - and they went after him back in 2003 as well - but the interest has not been hot and heavy thus far: 61

Sean Mahan - Making plenty of others visits, and, though the Skins have put in a call or two, I don't get the sense he is on the front burner (but I've been wrong before): 57

[B]Others To Watch:[/B]
Edwin Mulitalo - Will know much more on this one today, but have a feeling he will be brought in for a visit. Very solid 8 year starter who is a terrific human being and tenacious run bloiker. Was strong in Baltimore's power run game. Like everyone else on this he's getting old, but Earnest Byner knows him well from his time with the Ravens and he's already played NFL games alongside Skins C Casey Rabach. I get the impression this guy could be in for a visit by Thursday: 64

Ruben Brown - Have yet to hear for certain the SKins are after him - and I think I would have by this point if it was serious - but a career starter who played for Gregg Williams in Buffalo: 60

Cosey Coleman - Ever just get a hunch about a tough hombre named Cosey? Have heard nothing firm in this case, and have not heard the name mentioned around the facility, but just think of the blog-fun we could have with a name like Cosey?: 56

Jordan Black - Played for Al Saunders in KC, but generating interest elsewhere and had yet to hear from the Skins as Tuesday: 59

There are plenty of others out there - Ross Verba, Seth McKinney, Jeno Jones, Cooper Carlisle - who I could pretend to scout, but for various reasons I don't see it happening here at all, at least not at this point in the offseason.

I don't want to make this any more boring than it already is, so I'll leave it off here. If I was a betting man, I'd say forget La Canfora and take the field (everyone I didn't mention), but that's just me.
