Bryant McKennie still available

Just a thought. He still hasn't been picked up as far as I know. He's a solid veteran, and would definately be an upgrade. One year deal?

Talented, but one of the biggest d-bags in the league. He wouldn't fit in very well around here.

Never mind that, he wouldn't fit in the uniform.

Minny fans were relieved to see him go as he wasn't good at all last year, and he was in a way even more ridiculed than Stinchcomb.

Supposedly he has a rap artist career going on in Miami, which he was more interested in than working out this off-season. So I would say a big NO to signing him!

Maybe. I'm not sure Strief and Brown are ready.

Actually, Strief is plenty ready enough for starting at RT. He will do fine this year. It's Brown who is still light years away from being ready it seems...

Wait a minute.... Why is he a D-bag? What did i miss?

He is a braggadocious loud mouth who is always in trouble and showed up to camp weighing 400 pounds this year, which is why he was released in the first place. His community service is superficial at best and he is showing no signs of being like Anthony Hargrove or Jeremy Shockey.

He sucks and is a douchebag to boot. See: getting kicked out of the Pro Bowl a few years ago.

I'd rather have Max Starks. He's only 29 and has championship pedigree and no real injury problems. He would fit in immediately.

He's 6'8" tall. Weighing 400 pounds isn't really that bad for a guy that tall.

No it's pretty bad. He'd get eaten alive on every snap at that weight.
