As I seem to remember, with the impending "weak crop" of LT candidates expected in this past draft, not only was the LT class in the NFL free agency season lean on LTs in number, but made their prices rather high.
But yes, I do seem to remember some viable options being available after Whit elected to sign with LA. Maybe not the caliber of player we're used to at LT, but at least some proven, known commodities, capable of starting.
Best available free agents (current)
Actually, I see a few players that could improve this team.
Ryan Clady
Dwight Freeney
Jared Odrick
Devin Taylor
Jairus Byrd (with the recent injury to Williams)
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
