He better not leave town. Slip him a mickey if you have to (pun intended).

Just don't let him leave.

Also, he was usually hit from guys rushing off the edge, not up the middle where Grubbs was.

They'll sign him. How do I know you ask...?

I know it's true because Mike D is Bulimic!

I guess another way to go would be to take a look at Eric Winston, the RT the Texans released on Monday. He failed their medical, but he underwent arthroscopic ankle surgery in February and according to his statements he should pass medicals in two weeks time. He hasn't missed a start in the past 5 seasons.

He was part of that strong O-line of the Texans, and he would be an upgrade over Strief (and Bushrod), at least in my opinion - Strief would be free to move to LG.

Eric Winston, T for the Houston Texans at NFL.com

I don't know if iv'e ever seen a six foot, eight inch guard.

Not saying he can't, I really like the guy. SUPER nice to my son on many occasions.

He could do a disappearing act with Sproles.
