This is a crazy thought but

Do we still need someone to kick off? Or is that the new punter or Vinnie now?

DeAndre Levy is another name that just hit the market that might fit that bill, though he's not the caliber of Timmons.
Timmons is gone, signed with the Dolphins.

We will be returning more kicks than kicking off so it doesn't matter.

Anyone starting to get the feeling that we won't be signing a veteran starting Guard?

Or at least not a very good one.
