Tyson Clabo RG and Robert Gallery LG Shift Corey to Center. Resign Jamal Brown.

I think that Ruud might be a good pickup as an ILB.

I agree that we should resign Jammal Brown. He should be healthier and more familiar with the system this year. I think we should also resign Rex Grossman, Santana Moss, and Carlos Rogers.

I think we'll probably pass on DL FA's and play the young players we have at those positions.

As for DB's, I hope we don't spend a fortune on a CB (or any other player) in FA. I think I could stand it if we resign "Hands of Stone" to play CB. I certainly agree that we need to sign a CB in FA.

To be honest, I haven't a clue as to what to do about the interior OL in Free Agency. It would be nice to get Tyson Clabo or Davin Joseph but I doubt that's going to be possible.

There are a couple of other FA's I'd like to see the Skins go after. First, FB Vonta Leach (Houston). He is a top-notch blocker who already knows our offensive system. I'd give him a multi-year deal.

Second, if we go after a DL, then I'd like the Skins to consider Chris Hoke (Pitt). Chris already knows our defensive system. He could play either NT or DE. I'd offer him a one year deal while our younger DL players develop.
