I would say it be a good move for us if he wasnt 24 years old.

He hasn't played a full season yet in his career.

Too injury prone for me....no thanks.

I see the word "Rumor" and I'm thinking "why isn't this in the Rumor Mill forum? Then I open up and find out it's nothing to do with the Raiders. Finally, I see it's a Rook. Oh well.

yes browns sign bentley, faine can be a good pick, it depend the price , not for a draft pick but the browns look for a big de who can play 3-4, i dont know if we are a player who interest browns.

Move Grove back to guard and put Faine at center

**silvernblack10** · #9 (**permalink**) 03-13-2006, 03:51 AM

No need to trade for him, we have a second round center in Grove that we should develop.

Blah blah blah....all this talk about getting FA o-line help is based on what??? We have good enough personnel already and now have a coach who specializes in that position. Would adding depth at the o-line help? yes, but address this in draft. Get a FA for Qb, RB, and anything defense. Our line will be much better with Art around, I guaron-damn-tee it!!

Steerpike · #11 (**permalink**) 03-13-2006, 04:37 AM

No thanks. They just signed another Center, what does that tell you?

He's been inconsistent, injury prone, and has had trouble keeping weight on.

He's a player i loved coming out, but i wpould leave well alone now. Might as well play Grove.

Agreed.

Faine is a good center. If we can get him cheap enough DO IT.

we NEED help in the interior line BAD.

we dont have a starting RG, our starting LG MIGHT be langston walker, but he is best suited as a RT, so we are not sure about the RG spot, and we arent sure if grove can play C in this league, he did not look as good as we had hoped this year, so we have 3 question marks.

badger is NOT a starter, neither is treu, both are good back ups though.

personally, i think our OL should look like this next year.

LT-gallery
LG-sims
OC-grove
RG-FA/draft pick
RT-walker

i dont think walker should play inside, he is too big, it is hard for him to work in space and you can tell he just did not want to play OG and that is not his strength. sims gets TORCHED by speed rushing ends, two years ago he had a great year, but this past year, forget about it, he got worked too often, he gave up well over 10 sacks, and should be at LG.

we DEFINATELY need help on the OL, we need AT LEAST two more guys, definately a RG, badger is NOT the answer, and possibly someone else, if we dont think walker can play RT and keep gallery there.
