Better than nothing. I think it is the right move before the Draft personally. No one wants him to start, but you have to have depth
and he played decent at times before the AFCC against the Chiefs.

Spot on, backups are backups for a reason. It does open the draft, same with the other additions in Orlando and to a point Ford.

We can add some talent in the Draft to compete still. Honestly would of been a bit disappointed if we didn't re-sign Scharping.

I liked him for years, big versatile OL that can move, he will struggle at times because he is not a starter but you could do worse.
