Orlando Pace has been cut (updated: Skins not interested)
Could we afford him and would he fit.

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
He's older than Jansen. But he still would be an upgrade.

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
You asked for it GMScud. I think he's too old.

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
I knew it was coming!! I'm surprised it didn't happen earlier.
Anyway, I'll pass. He's old and both of his knees are bad. I'd rather get younger than bring in yet another injury prone lineman on the wrong side of 30 (I feel like I say at least once a week around here). Like I said in the FA thread, he can probably prolong his career if he switches to RT, and that's just what we'd use him for, but IMO we don't need an aging, oft injured stop gap.

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
Not if he is expensive. If he can be gotten cheap, he'd make a good stopgap upgrade at RT.

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
I'd take him if
- he's healthy enough to start. no nagging injuries at all - he's cheap. as in damn cheap and will sign a 1 year deal - he's willing to play RT i am not sure he is any of those. |

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
If he is healthy and a dirt cheap price then go for it. Lets just not over pay for another veteran on the downside of his career.

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
If the price is right I would be all for it. Pace would be way better the Jansen for the short term.

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
I think its been talked about in the 2009 FA thread as thats what it happens to be for. Did a new thread really need to be started?

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
To answer the title of this thread "Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think"...
I think that means he's out of work. Seriously, I would pass. The Redskins have enough players on the wrong side of 30. We need a youth movement here in the worst way...draft an OT in the first round (or trade down and get more picks).

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
id say yes. 1 year deal, draft a linebacker or de in first round, not o-line

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
The Rams might cut Holt too. Go get Holt and Pace and call us the Ramskins!

Re: Orlando Pace has been cut what do you think
No... OT talent is deep in this year's draft, with 6 or maybe 7 taken in the first round. There will be more "cuts" like Pace but w/ few questions/concerns. Levi Jones is a guy to keep our eyes on depending on what Cinci does w/ their 1st round pick.
