    What vet guards do you guys think will be available when teams make cuts before the season starts?

    I hear Washington is fed up with some LG named "Kendall". The guy can play but is ALWAYS bitching about EVERYTHING. They got him for a 4th round pic somewhere but they are ready to trade his bitchy ass for a conditional 7th pic in the 2015 draft.

    Should we look at him? Is he a "Mangini" guy? Anyone know who he is???? Can he play Center?

    I think his knee was pretty banged up last year, and he had a couple of surgeries. Not sure his current status. What about that other Dolphin guard, Jacox I believe it was. He was a FA, haven't seen him sign anywhere. Not stellar but could be a hold the fort guy if the FO doesn't have faith in the current cast of characters. Probably better off waiting to see if anyone gets cut...

    Jets | Team may be interested in Vincent
    Thu, 23 Aug 2007 11:00:38 -0700

    J.P. Pelzman, of the Bergen Record, reports the New York Jets may be interested in acquiring Baltimore Ravens OG Keydrick Vincent either through trade or signing him if he is released by the Ravens. Vincent is currently working with the third-team offense with the Ravens.

    Jamison Hensley, of the Baltimore Sun, reports Baltimore Ravens OG Keydrick Vincent will compete with OG Ben Grubbs for the starting right guard position.

    Also, don't think the Ravens would send him to us when we play them in week 2, but who knows...

    Vincent is very interesting. Im willing to bet guys like Vincent and Smiley will get cut.

    I don't have time to do it, but if you look to teams that drafted OL in first/second round, they're the most likely to dump high paid vets, since they are unlikely to pay big $$$ for vet backup OLmen

    Both those guys would be nice additions, but I really want to see what Bender and Jones can do.

    I think you mean Clark and Im right with you on that statement, but there is nothing wrong having a good insurance plan.

    Vincent is not even an upgrade over Bender.

    I'm not high on Clarke. As far as I know Adrian Jones is still on the team. He was an OT in college, but like Bender I think he is best suited for OG in the pros.
