WVUFootball29 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Took a few minutes this afternoon to find some of the bigger name talent at offensive tackle who will be a free agent next year. The talent is out there for the taking, but it is going to cost some serious cash to lure some of these guys away from their current teams. LT Alex Barron St. Louis LT Jermon Bushrod New Orleans RFA LT Chad Clifton Green Bay LT Jared Gaither Baltimore RFA LT Mike Gandy Arizona LT Marcus McNeill San Diego LT Michael Roos Tennessee RT Cornell Green Oakland RT Stephon Heyer Washington RT Winston Justice Philadelphia RT Jeremy Trueblood Tampa Bay RT Eric Winston Houston RT Tyson Clabo Atlanta LT would be my primary focus this year as D.Bell still needs a lot of work and a math tutor to teach him to count past 1. My favorites in order are: Bushrod, Gaither, Clifton, Roos. The tough part here is that Bushrod are going to cost at least a 1st round pick and most likely a 1st and a 3rd.

Lofton80 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Many of those names will never see the market. McNeil of SD is pretty good. If Ralph pulls off a miracle and signs Shanny, he has always favored athletic lineman who can run the stretch play and cut block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In space no one can hear Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 LT Marcus McNeill San Diego is a keeper. A bit better than Bell.(sarcasm) San Diego has many free agents this year- not sure who they plan on keeping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tough part here is that Bushrod are going to cost at least a 1st round pick and most likely a 1st and a 3rd. and if there is no new CBA I think only Clifton and Gandy are unrestricted from that group. I think 1st or 2nd round pick is the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVUFootball29 Posted November 23, 2009 Author Share Posted November 23, 2009 Roos signed a big extension with Tennesse a while ago Thought i had heard that, but wasn't sure. KFFL wasn't updated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Eric Winston would be interesting...I remember reading the Bills had pretty extensive contact with him during the Indy Combine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVUFootball29 Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Say what? No thanks. thats what I say. However, when looking at the list, I named all the current starters with contracts expiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mob16151 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I wouldn't be adverse to bringing Barron in. He seems to be playing decently this year. And he has the most physical talent of every lineman on that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jokeman Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I wouldn't be adverse to bringing Barron in. He seems to be playing decently this year. And he has the most physical talent of every lineman on that list. I wouldn't be opposed to signing Barron as think he's an upgrade over Bell. Another guy that we might be able to get on the cheap is Khalif Barnes, who is coming off an injury and doubt the Raiders would keep around. As at the very least should be able to supplant Kirk Chambers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoner7 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 There are so very very good guards out there too. I feel like we have to address this issue in FA because we just dont have enough draft picks. LBs, DLs, OLs, QB.... we have too many needs not to.

R. Rich Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Jeremy Trueblood would be the guy I want off of that list. I can't see the Bucs letting Trueblood hit the market, as he's one of the best RTs in the game. Alex Barron? Didn't he lead the league in penalties? TWICE??
