Man, you know the OL market is thin when Pashos and Clifton are the "big" targets. Still better than what we've got, but definitely stop gap types.

I am happy that at least we don't have the F.O. saying "We have a playoff roster". Our o-line was the obvious glaring weakness and they are focusing on the line. What's not to like? It just sucks that there isn't a premier o-lineman out there but we are doing the best we can with the hand we are given.

I was thinking that the signing of Clifton gives us a lot more flexibility in that if Bradford does fall to us in the first and we end up with a project tackle in the draft, like Ducasse, then we can possibly give them experience at RT before we try our hand at LT. Then if that doesn't seem to be working out we can draft a LT with our first rounder next year.

:FIREdevil Oh and besides guys the tackle class next year looks much better, this years class is the weakest tackle class like you know like ever. Better yet lets use a mid round pick to find a franchise LT. I'm pretty sure we'll be able to manage that. We can draft him right after our 5th round franchise QB :FIREdevil

I also wonder that Clifton is insurance in case we lose out on both Bradford and Okung. I also wonder if you could move Clifton or Pashos to RT if we land Okung?

Could be. There's a very good chance we could miss out on BOTH of them and end up drafting a top defensive player we just can't pass up...or trading down.

I was also wondering if Clifton or Okung could move to RT? Other than Dockery, we need to upgrade the whole line.

Clifton would make a nice RT. I think thought that the main reason we like him now is aside from his reputation he's spent the last few years in a zone blocking scheme. Unfortunately my favorite project Daryn Colledge got a second round tender from Green Bay. Oh well.

I was wondering how they get those ships in those little bottles. :confused:
