Is todd wade really gonna start at LG?

[Daseal]

I feel that LG is a real problem. Especially with Jansen looking rough I don't like having two problem spots on our line. While I don't think Heyer is the answer. He's the type of player we need to keep on our roster and develop for a while.

I'd love to see us talking to the Jets seeing what they want for Kendell.

I think you are right dead on with this. Getting Kendell would be a much needed piece to our current puzzle. With him on the roster we could put him in at left guard and consider using T. Wade at RT for Jansen if he does not improve. I do recall when he was in there doing "cough" as good or better job than Jansen. Than we can develop Heyer through this season and he would still be a decent back up if needed.

Jets problem with Kendell seems there want him to play Center which he has alot of problems with but he seems to be a great guard.

But isn't Kendall four years older than anyone we currently have on our already "old" Offensive Line? I don't want want to give up anything (i.e. a player or a pick) for a stopgap measure like Kendall. Unless we think he has several years left in him a la Ray Brown

After watching Kendall closely in the Jets last preseason game vs the Cowgirls last week, we can safely say he still has what it takes to be one of the better guards in this league. If I was a betting man he has 2-3 years left in the tank. If we could get him for a 5th round pick (which the what the Jets were looking for a while back) I would jump at the chance. Alas it looks like Kendall is in the Jets plans this year no matter what he says about the FO... so we should look elsewhere

It would be a good move but it's not going to happen. He is under contract and the reason he isn't happy is because he wants more $. Plus he is in his mid 30's.

O great now if the LG position is a worry than most likely well draft a LG if nothings wrong.
