To show you how bad it's getting Seattle just had to sign a 50 year-old tackle off the street. LOL!

Re: Do the Jets trade for Winston?

Guido correctly pointed out that there is a severe lack of O line players in the NFL right now, and it is already obvious when a 50 year old comes out of retirement. I'd like to see us invest heavily in the line next year. Peat is on his last year here. Hurst is decent but can definitely be upgraded. How long is McCoy going to be able to run around on one leg?

We traded up for Saldiveri this year, who plays with a nasty streak, and I'd like to see us bolster the line with a couple of draft picks next year like him if possible. I've been pounding the table for the Saints to make a trade for awhile now, but we might have to wait until the draft next year to get reinforcements along the O line.

I was being a bit factious about Peters being 50 (he's only 41), but the point remains. Pickings are slim across the whole league right now on the o-line. I'm wondering if all of these spread offenses across the college game are having a negative effect on the quality of offensive linemen coming into the NFL over the past decade or so.

Finger fart is more like it. Large hands and fingers paired with arthritis means I have to spellcheck everything. Unintended legit words can slip by unless I proofread.

My guess is they will sign Wentz.

Maybe as a backup. Or some other vet. I'll bet they stick with Wilson as the starter.
