Ours seem to think they can throw anything back there and have continuously been proven wrong. If they want to try someone young who has size and shown some skills, then bring in Kenton Keith.

Man, you can't address all the issues they had in one draft. They took a RB with their second pick (3rd round) which is considered a valuable draft choice. Everyone has been all over them over the past few years for not taking a LT early. They did that this year, and the kid looks like he is going to work out (though it is early). There is only so much you can do, Johnson may have worked out, but if he came here and was hurt everyone would be all over them for taking a worn out rb. LT was the highest priority, even higher than RB, mendenhal wouldnt have done much without a line in front of him. It takes patients. The roster was pretty much in shambles when the new management team came in. It appears they missed with Green, but Salyton looks good so far, again it was only preseason, but he is the same size as terrell davis and clinton protis, and bigger than dunn, all who had pretty decent careers, no? So let's wait and see how the season shakes out.
