[jrocx69]

so....who is left at guard on the FA market right now?

[jrocx69]

here is a list of guards... *note* some of these guys have been signed

Cosey Coleman and Reuben Brown are two Guards I know of

[freddyg12]

cool, don't need to throw cash at an old g-men reject. Petigout still has some football left, but we need youth at a low price.

[skinsfan_nn]

He would have been a good pickup if the price was right. I kinda was thinking he was like the rest of these "OVERPAID" OL FA, looking for the BIG CHECK.

Glad we held our hand on this one. I think this Guard spot isn't TOP priority at this time.

I posted this yesterday in regard to possible LG's

Here's some names to chew on as possible replacements:

Ruben Brown (Bears) - yes he's old but the guy can still play, he would be a good stop gap.

Cosey Coleman (Browns) - a lot of starting experience but not very mobile or quick.

Zach Piller (Titans) - has some injury concerns but he's a quality run blocker.

Rick DeMulling (Lions) - athletic lineman, excels at pulling and trapping, not very stout in the running game, lacks awareness.

Chris Villarrial (Bills) - probably on his last legs as a starter but he's got good size, strength, and experience.

Any word on what his contract with tampa was?

[JankySpanky80]

Ruben brown is old but is experience would be enough to get the job done for a few years while Bugel grooms a late rounder. The big question is at his age could he pull. That was Dockery's biggest problem. Even Portis said that.

What's the deal with Wade? Is he still on our roster? Can he switch to Guard? Just wondering...

Also, in a trade-down, are there any good guards in the draft who might step right in?

[wilsowilso]

Seems likely that we trade down unless our favorite d-lineman out of Anderson, Branch and Adams is still available when we pick. If they really like Okoye or Carriker then we absolutely trade down and draft a guard with the extra pick.

[Big C]

well mahan from tb is still available as far as i know, hes on lenny's top sleeper list

ESPN.com - NFL - Pasquarelli: Sleepers could get solid deals
