We need a center and a right guard (the most anyways). If you look at the free agents though, any centers or guards really worth a damn are taken already.
We also need a Right tackle...don't forget that!!! Big Mac is a journey man who shouldn't be starting for any NFL team as a RT...fat and slow is how I'd describe him, and better suited to play the guard position.Quote:

What about Khalif Barnes? What do you guys think of him?Quote:

There are possibilities out there, but no one knows what kind of moves we are making behind closed doors.
I disagree. I think McIntosh came on, the further the season went along, and with Herb Taylor and our other drafted OT last year, I'm not sure right tackle is a spot we need to go spend a bunch of money on.Quote:

He looked great as a rookie, but then gave up 7.5 sacks last year and had a lot of penalties on him too.Quote:

I haven't had much of an opportunity to watch The Jags of late.Quote:

But, if we were to sign him, I would be pretty excited about him.
He is still a young guy, who started all sixteen games in '08. In fact, it seems that he has only missed seven starts in his four year career.
Not bad, for a mid-second round pick.
That alone suggests that the guy is pretty good.
BIg Mac only looked better because he had Thigpen rolling out of the pocket covering up his mistakes. He was beat oftent but Thigpen just rolled to the outside sealing the De who just beat Big Mac inside the pocket.Quote:

We can't afford to keep Big Mac at Rt.
