A lot of Eagle connections Andy. A longshot but maybe a PS add later...

Maybe Coolie remembers him as I see he has the U and Houston in his college stops..
 
Defines Camp body from the article. Three Tackle spots are locked. They brought in another guy with real league experience.

They have the full 90 now any additional adds will trigger an IR or a release.
 
Yep. And hell.....you never know. I'd imagine same things were said when Villaneuva was signed.

Well Big Al had a lot more going for him. Massive size,athletic ability. I'd say him being a Captain in the U.S. Army Rangers with 3 combat tours in Afghanistan, kinda set him in a category very few men in the NFL have. Rocky Bleier was the other Steeler who is in that category. Uncommon Valor and grit.
 
Another Tackle to the mix, I don't know what to think about it but it aint good.

I'm sure you are right. Just saying the thought on him making the team was probably similar.

They were just filling out the offseason roster. They had to add somebody. A T that Andy is familiar with, it doesn't hurt to give a look-see. I love adding bodies to the trenches, I don't think that knocks who they have outside of the signing.

Maybe I was hoping for an ILB, where there is more uncertainty.
 
quite the focus on beefing up the OL this off-season.
that might be an iron curtain around Kenny.
 
yeah he was a UH player

earned the starting job as a Jr and played well, had a season ending injury early in his senior year and then Grad transferred to Miami the next year

Oh I definitely am hoping for an ILBer. That is arguably the teams greatest depth weakness.
 
Some talking heads are saying the wrath of KAHN still has one more major move. They are saying that move will be an ILB.

I’m not so sure on how “major” a move Kahn has left in him but our cap is that unless there is a “restructure”, we can’t afford a major move.

The team will probably not add an ilb if the rumor about Robinson’s progress is true… they wont want to block him from progressing into a starters role by next year…

I hear yaz, but I was hoping he progresses into a starter’s role this year. Green did, at center…………..

I like it. Another body to move Dan Moore Jr. off the roster... hopefully.

I don’t think Moore will be off the roster due to his starter experience and rookie contract.

Anything is possible but I’m not sure Williams will unseat Moore, someone else yes.

Yeah Moore will stick this year. Next year too… there really isn’t any cap savings gained by cutting him and replacing him on the roster…

Chuks saves us 8.75 million by cutting or trading him before the new year starts next year though… if Dan Moore can play RT, then we could bring in a 2 or 3 million dollar swing tackle vet and still bank a cool 5 mil or so for an add
