How long do you keep Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly if they don't produce?

If you don't think that Dockery is an upgrade over Kendall I guess we're watching different football. Dockery is much more athletic, much younger and a much better drive blocker.

We don't have a hole at OT, some would like an upgrade. We don't have a hole at RG, some would like an upgrade. We don't have a hole at K, some would like an upgrade. We just signed a veteran punter a week ago. Is he a pro bowler? Nope, but he's been effective kicking in the division before.

As I asked before, who would you have brilliantly filled all of our holes with this offseason?

Jon jansen is a hole at Right Tackle. A permanent hole with two fragile thumbs...not to mention he is the achiles heel of the offensive line (pun intended).

Our kicking game was larthargic last year so I consider both positions holes. Especially since the guy they brought in to punt was no better than the guy we let go. But I am not nit picking on the kicking game. I could really care less about the upgrade there.

To answer your question we could have signed 2 more FA's immediately at the opening bell of FA and all we had to do was realize that we were going to cut Jason Taylor, Shawn Springs, and Marcus Washington. The writing was on the wall, but the FO acted too late. Anyways my additions would have been (in addition to what we had done) sign Chris Canty and Cato June. After these signings I would have moved Rocky McIntosh to SAM and June would play Will. Canty would line up at LDE. That would have enabled us to address the OT and OG positions in the Draft early 1st and 3rd rounds and needs at LB depth later a little later.

But whatever...
