Here's an idea? With our $18 million in cap space...and the $3 million we gave Smith...why didn't we go out and sign a RG like Ronald Leary? 4 years $36 million for a near Pro Bowl road grader of a Guard.

We'd still have $12 million in cap space.

And people say we have to keep Burfict and Eifert. Well we haven't extended them yet. We have guys like MJ we can waive for more cap space. The cap is supposed to rise next year.

But you see, the problem with that is, is that is a GOOD idea. It would have made sense. Hence, why it didn't/won't happen. PA is too stubborn/delusional to think "his guys" are a major liability. He'll roll with this line and not bench struggling players until later in the season (see: Ogbuehi last year).

If only Marvin was aware he had the power to overrule PA... Or maybe he does and agrees with the lineup.. Or maybe Marv is in charge of the lineup... Or maybe Marv isn't allowed to overrule PA... Blech, disgusting to think about no matter how you slice it.
