Outside of Armstead & Trent Brown, Reiff is as good as the other FA options left.
1) Reiff is not a horrible option (if his ankle is healed) but I think we should try to do better at that position. Reiff made 7.5 million last year. How much of a pay cut could we get him for? Collins is much better than Reiff and if the difference is $7M to sign Reiff or $10M for Collins, I would rather have Collins even if it costs a 3rd round draft pick to get him. If Collins is off the table, I would rather have Mogan Moses instead of Reiff. Resigning Reiff wouldn't be the ideal situation but I believe we could work with it.
2) I don't think Prince, Smith or Johnson is the answer at RT for the time being. They can improve but I dont think now is the time
3) Again not a horrible option but you just never know how rookies are going to pan out. They are too much of an unknown. Right now this team has a Super Bowl window and we need to do the best we can to improve the line right now.
