Your Thoughts on the D-line...

[The Goat]

Ok i'll admit it... the thought of AH and JT lining up together gets me a little excited. All I hope is that Albert's contract, if he really does sign here, is extremely incentive laden rather than guaranteed (I don't think he'll go for it and I don't think our FO will force it but you know...).

... funny how much the outlook has changed since I started this thread. I really thought our d-line would consist of Evans, Griff, Monty and Carter starting w/ Golston and Lorenzo rotating in at tackle. I hoped for 1) another year of Griff playing like a warrior and 2) Monty finally playing up to his potential which would pay dividends for our ends... haha.

Apparently Redskins is considering Chris Canty from Cowboys.. And I think he's good choice?

I really like this idea. He's durable, plus younger, cheaper, and more versatile than Haynesworth, played college ball at UVA, and we'd be taking a solid contributor from our arch rival.

Although that post on RI says we are looking at Mark Tauscher. Boo. He's 31 and coming off surgery for a torn ACL. Do we really need another O-lineman on the wrong side of 30 coming off injury?? Come on. And it says we have no interest in Brandon Moore, who is a healthy 27 year old guard. Apparently we are looking to add 2 tackles and a guard....

Perhaps due to cap issues?

Well Tauscher isn't exactly a bargain. He's averaged $5M/yr recently. If we're going to pony up that kind of loot, might as well try for the younger, less injured player. That said, I have no idea what kind of money Brandon Moore will be looking for.

I like the idea of having Canty, hopefully this will quiet any thoughts of going after Haynesworth.

I don't like taking on a 31 year old lineman, unless he comes super cheap. I wonder if Buges is the type that only likes veteran players.
