Well, I have scoured the many players who have been released today and this is the guy I want. He is easily the best tackle available right now. He can also play guard. At 6'6 and 325 he obviously has the size.
He was released by Jacksonville because he would not take a pay cut, not for peformance reasoning. This is a guy who started the last 38 games for the Jags on a pretty good O-line and is known to be a strong run blocker. In 2006 he started all 16 games for the Ravens on an O-line that only allowed 16 sacks the entire season (NFL low.)
Last year he won the Jaguars team award for off the field, in the community performance and was also on Jack Del Rios leadership council. He started his first game in the middle of the 2005 season and has started every game since. At 28 years old it looks like he has a wealth of experience and looks to be exaclty what we need.
I've pretty much went through everybody who is anything and this is what I've came up with. I think he could easily solve the gigantic issue that we have on the right side at tackle.
Here is a few links that I pulled during my research if you guys are interested:

I just hope Hunt has seen enough this preseason of the team to pay a guy like him the money he wants. Hunt was cheap this offseason on sighing better players.
i can remember what a chief super bowl team looks like! ......

He's better than what we have, but I think he's far from a long term solution. Everything I'm reading has him as a slightly below average RT. I'd still like to have him of course though, for Cassel's sake.

I normally hate the idea of overpaying a player, but we have the cap room and the need. Just overpay this guy and get him. If he stinks, then we have more than enough cap room to cover the loss.

O'Callahan is our guy. Hope he can step in and play immediately at RT
I say we still pickup Pashos and actually have some depth on the right side.

Yeah, ideally I'd like to pick up Pashos to compete with O'Callaghan for the RT job, and then have Ndukwe and Goff battle it out for RG.
