Skins Sign O-Lineman Mike Williams

[johno]

the redskins insider brought up the idea of bringing jon runyan as a stop gap measure for rt. any thoughts? is heyer a better option than bringing in runyan for a single year? i feel as though its a no brainer if we are reduced to a mike williams vs. runyan decision.

I almost started a new thread w/that RI post, but figured we have some old 09 free agent threads & nothing is even rumored at this point.

I surely hope they don't feel the need to sign Runyan, or if they did he couldn't make the team. Sadly, he's probably as good or better than our current options at RT.

Aint gunna happen, Runyan is old and is a dirty player.
Remember, we got rid of Jansen....a classy guy that could run block.
I just dont see that happening unless someone gets significantly injured...such as Heyer or Samuals.

if you think Levi Jones would be a decent option, you'd be wrong. Jansen is more solid than that guy. The reality is what is available right now is thin.
We need to live and die with our OT options....I sure hope Fatty Boombalatty turns into a lean mean fighting machine!
