Nope and I am petrified we will. We almost did it last season with Josh Norman when we had not two nickles to rub together. BTW, the Skins did not make the playoffs and fired like everyone on the d-side of the ball. One guy doesn't do it, and the big money guys almost never payoff. I am sure we will though.

Only one proven in the bunch that fills a need
Kevin Zeitler G CIN 27

Upside and hoping and still pondering
A.J. Bouye CB HOU 26
Tony Jefferson S ARI 25

steady
Dontari Poe DT KC 27

Wanted G Warford badly in another draft. Second chances are the charm.

I under estimated Williams in that draft. I had him later in the draft/ blew that one completely. Word out of Baltimore is Williams is a must sign for the team and top priority.

Nick Fairley DT NO 28
$6-7 million per year? If not

option 2
Johnathan Hankins NY Giants 25
$6-7 million per year?

A.J. Klein MLB Carolina 25
$3 with bonus up to $5 million ?

Offense?

Rick Wagner RT Baltimore Ravens 26
$6-7 million per year?

Kevin Zeitler RG Cincinnati Bengals 26
He might be the next $10 million dollar man and I would ponder that dollar amount but he is one of the best and still in his prime. Five year deal might be pushing it to limit but there is always an out if you do not back load the deal

Kevin Zeitler and Rick Wagner would be a huge duo in FA. Then have Streif in active rotation would cement the right side till Drew retired. Streif can play mentor/coach to the young pups also till he hangs them up.

I looked at Poe on the list but I don't think Andy Reid lets him go anywhere.

Zeitler and Logan Ryan

If Fairley asks for 6-7 a year let him walk. One year does not mean you are. Top talent. Throw a 4 year 16 million at him and see if he bites. If not, oh well.

A starting guard and two LBs, CB would be more than we have now.

I want Zeitler but that just means I won't get him. Our Pro scouting department hasn't had any success and might be the next shake up if they doesn't produce better results this offseason. I believe Terry Fontenot runs the Pro scouting department. He has a bad record at bringing in high price free agents and is only midly successful with the low cost free agents.

Rugs, I so know what you mean...

You plug Zeitler in at Right Guard at 10-11 mil/year, you'll have the best offensive line in football...

Then, you can take O-linemen in those fourth, fifth rounds and have some depth and start developing them to play in three four seasons...
