No way. Xavier, McGovern, and/or Looney can battle for LG.

Williams has had knee surgery for 3 straight seasons so there's no way McCarthy will look at him as a long term full time starter going forward. I expect Williams to be moved to Swing tackle which will allow the front office to cut Cam Fleming and save $5 million

Aren’t Sua Filo and Looney free agents? No guarantee they return

This was a move I had figured would happen, and I'd love to bring Leary back to compete for the starting left guard job. I thought Denver screwed themselves and him trying to play him elsewhere while he was there.

But it will likely all come down to money for him, and the wholesale change in coaching staff doesn't increase the odds of a return either.

But if the price is right? Heck yeah, put him in the mix at left guard.

I don’t think he’s getting much guaranteed money. Hes often injured and older. Hopefully if we make a move it’s cheaper and had outs with injuries

I hope the price is right and we can afford him after taking care of our other needs. I'd love to let he and McGovern compete for the left guard spot while moving Williams to tackle (where I feel he's best suited).

No...

We can't spend cap space on a luxury like this.

We drafted McGovern & Connor Williams.. One of those guys needs to play left guard.

If you're going to sign a Free Agent offensive lineman it needs to be Joe Looney but i'm sure he is going to be a starter somwhere next season for some team... Probably the Giants...

It's moot because I don't think either of them fetches more money than Leary. Would rather try to keep one of those 2 (especially Looney due to center ability).

All depends on price. It would have to be cheaper than he would likely accept.

Would Leary be ok with backup pay because it's pretty unlikely he could start.

He's another guy that will probably go to NYG.

You acquire Looney and a 30 year old Ron Leary and you're starting to piece together a very solid interior.

I think McGovern will show a lot of potential in training camp. He could possibly win the starting job.

Don’t think either is starting over Hernandez. They may cut Zeitler to make room for them. But Hernandez isn’t going anywhere
