Who else was on the market last week? 33 year old Nick Mangold whom has apparently failed physicals this off-season? 31 year old Ryan Wendell who as only started 4 games over the past 2 seasons? Hey, Khaled Holmes is still on the open market!

1,184 guys are going to be cut from NFL teams the Monday after the 4th pre-season game this year (from 90 down to 53). There is not much on the open market right now. My guess is that we will end up picking up an OC from that bunch to tide us over until Kelly or Schwenke are back.


This whole "Ballard should have known better" is pretty rear view mirror raspberries. The QB free agency class sucked bad in 2017 and there was no one left (who would have signed with us) when Kelly went down.

Walk Worthy,
Schwenke is back! My thought is that Ballard knew it would only be days before he was off the PUP list.
