Zombo Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 If Mack can't be re-signed, I like the Wisniewski option. Tough mauler. Penn Stater like his dad Leo and Uncle Steve. He's smart, 26, rarely if ever misses a start. Plug him in. Zombo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gftChris Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 That's kind of the idea behind free agency isn't it? WSS Throwing or not throwing? If the point is to just throw money at anyone and hope for the best, it's probably good we're staying out of it. A few players I would have been happy with us signing, but mostly I just want to retain Schwartz, Gipson and maybe Mack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few players I would have been happy with us signing, but mostly I just want to retain Schwartz, Gipson and maybe Mack.Well I know you disagree about Gipson's performance last season, but Mack and Schwartz weren't great and will probably want great player money. That's all.If your choice is paying $10 for 6 one dollar bills or 7 one dollar bills, take the seven. WSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gftChris Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Schwartz was about as good as any right tackle around last year, and Mack has shown the level he's capable of. Gipson would be my third most important, but is another we've drafted and developed - since that's our aim, to draft, develop and retain our own players - shouldn't we be retaining those that have actually become good players?

calfoxwc Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 I remember when a few characters around here thought Schwartz was a crap olineman. He is one of the very best RT's in the league. Hope we can keep both him and Mack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mudfly Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 So come the draft we are going to need...

I hope none of the picks are busts ...we need to hit every one as we are not playing FA either getting new players in or keeping the ones we have ......Haslam and his cronies suck......hopeless franchise So....FA hasnt started yet, but since we aren't oneof the 10 teams that has presumably signed somebody, we have already failed?....cause we lost a center who we knew was leaving(and didnt want to be here) and a second rate WR?.....seriously.....you guys are crying a river before the game has even started......brutal.... Cant wait to here the whining when our average & injured 5th round FS signs elsewhere too.... He did not play near as well in 2014 as he did in 2015. Night and day. He's gotten progressively better every year....has rated top 1/3 in the league every year....has rated as the top OT in his class since drafted....has started from day one.....has never missed a snap.... But, yeah, this is the first year he was rated #1 in the league.....is that what it takes not to suck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did not see that at all this year, but still the OL could not run block. Last I looked he was a part of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
