O-Line Edition: Free Agency and the Draft

[Skins4L]

Nicks is a wall. I'd sign him in heartbeat as we prepare to bring in a rookie hoping he develops. How does a DOMINANT blocker not fit out system?

I agree. I really don't care if Nicks doesn't fit your system. He's the best out there and we need some studs on the o-line. I'd sign him before I'd sign Jackson.

As Matty stated, Shanahan isn't going to drop that kind of coin on a guard. Same thing with Meyers (C) in that we aren't going to give a interior OL a 8mil/year contract.

Too bad there isnt a RT to give that coin too. Because there lies the biggest need along the Oline, and now with 2nd gone and our 1st round decided and the bums in FA at Tackle, dont expect much improvement. Hopefully Round 3 the Tackle from California is still available or we can move into the back into the second.

At this point Shanahan shouldn't be the decision maker. He's proven he isn't capable. If I were Snyder, I'd tell him to shut up and coach the team and leave the personel to the front office. We need to bolster the O-line if we're going to be starting a rookie.
