right! there's still some vet FA's that would make us feel more confident at swing OT. We're one Brown injury from Edoga, and he hasn't shown much potential to put it all together.
Was just looking at this column from Nania - my top targets would be
-Daryl Williams (if he's open to being a swing tackle and not requiring starter $$), or
-Brandon Shell (solid fit that won't break the bank and could start in a pinch if needed).
-from the 30+ group, maybe Massie too, if he's healthy. also mentions Bulaga and Eric Fisher
DWH- you mentioned Malcolm Brown visited Washington, any idea if we are interested? I suggested we try him out and got mostly negative comments from the peanut gallery, but he is the run stuffer we lack.
He had an awful year last year at 36.7 in terms of run defense, but historically he's been a very good run defender with grades ranging from 70-85. I'd certainly probably prefer him to someone like Day.
From the Jets perspective it certainly looks as though Grant Hermanns and Conor McDermott are likely going to miss out. It's always hard to know which tackles may become available from other teams, I've heard of a few guards on the bubble but not many quality tackles. There is always a surprise or two in cut week though isn't there.

Do you have his PFF run stop #'s?
Thanks

Any OT's you're watching to see if they get cut?
At the moment it looks like swing tackle is young Mitchell and Edoga
