Also, I agree that he is the 3rd best lineman. People are saying he's the worst of the 5 but I would rank them like this (just on 2006):

1. Samuels
2. Thomas
3. Dockery
4. Jansen
5. Rabach

I'm eager to see more from Wade.

I would be interested to see how you all rate them.

70Chip, great points on your ranking. Samuels and Rabach had to over-compensate for Doc, and as you state, Rabach is clearly the 5th best b/c of all of his false starts. Doc & Jansen could have flipped places, but still, very good assessment. I agree, Doc is not worth paying a lot for that muffler! Jansen has slid considerably since his surgery a couple of years ago. His mind is willing, but his legs and feet aren't cooperating. He will be terrific as a smooth TV presence when he retires.
