How are we replacing Dockery?

I'm really not sold on Wade as a replacement for Dockery. I think he's going to be quite a downgrade. Maybe somewhere in the draft we could get a LG prospect.

When healthy Wade is an above average left tackle. He is athletic and has very good technique. I think he is actually a significant upgrade over Dock. Sorry but Dock was only an average guard. Good run blocker but only below average pass blocker. Didn't pull all that athletically and made mental mistakes. I wanted to keep Dock for the sake of chemistry but Buffalo gave not just way too much but ridiculously too much. Wade will slid over and be fine. Durability is the issue.

Wow, I am very surprised at that comment. Dockery did a very good job last year, I just don't see Wade filling his shoes. But I hope you're right.

Well I agree that I'm not 100% sold on Wade, but I would have to think that anyone we would draft wouldnt start anyways.
