Left Guard? Absolutely perfect. Thats exactly what we need. 4 pro bowlers on the line? Wow, this line will rival the 90's line. Unbelievable. An extra top 20 pick. Incredible.

Let Free on to the Pro Bowl team for the fun of it, he wasn't all that far away from it last year.

I don't think Leary is a weak link. He has chemistry with Smith and Frederick, he won't automatically lose his spot

Leary isn't bad at all, but I think it's safe to assume that if Collins is replacing anyone, Leary is the man out.

I'd love to see him eventually take Free's spot, but apparently he's a little raw at RT, and could be like Martin.. a good tackle or All Pro G.

I think Leary's great, but he's in a contract year and will always have the threat of his knees going out.

If we're really confident we trade him...

Position flex. Leary has a degenerative knee. Berny can play G/C, Leary can play both G spots, Collins can play G/T, Martin can play G/T, and Green can play both T spots in a pinch.

I think Collins beats out Leary sooner than later. Green will be groomed to take over for Free in a year or two.

We've now added three rookies who were projected in some mocks to be gone before we even picked at #27.

what a amazing pick up today in signing Collins. I really hope that we can win in the next four years that we will be able to keep this line together.

Leary should be trade bait. Get something out of him instead of letting him walk when his contract expires.

Salary cap won't let us afford and resign 4 1st round talent OL with the rest of our pieces. So we have a 2-4 year window to keep the band together for a great run. Let's make it work!

I don't think anyone will give up something for a guy with an expiring contract and bum knee.

Dallas just acquired Zack Martin's black clone. Amazing.

This line is going to mash people.
