Max Starks RFA Pittsburgh Steelers
Starks is a starting tackle for a Super Bowl champion. That’s enough in itself to get some teams a little excited about the prospects of acquiring him. The fact that Starks is young, talented, and massive in stature—listed at 6’8”, 337 lbs.—just adds to the excitement pile. Another lineman that shouldn’t be going anywhere as the Steelers will not let Starks go without a fight. The best bet is that Starks will decide he wants to stay in Pittsburgh and sign an extension. If he hits the market, there will be a team or two willing to pay a big amount to entice the tackle to relocate.

Leonard Davis UFA Arizona Cardinals
Davis is a massive tackle that the Cardinals can’t afford to lose to free agency, but it seems likely that they will. The Arizona offensive line is already suspect, and losing Davis would be a huge step in the wrong direction, but the team may have to let him go and find a replacement. Davis has shown the ability to simply be a wall of protection for his quarterback and while teams might not line up for the chance to sign him, anyone looking for a tackle will have him high on the list.

Mike Gandy, UFA, Buffalo Bills
A relatively young starting left tackle, Gandy had been blocking for Willis McGahee over the past two seasons, and this season could go a long way in making Gandy an appealing free agent. He has talent, but isn’t considered among the league’s best linemen. However, a decent starting left tackle doesn’t just drop from the sky, so expect him to garner interest from a handful of teams, if Buffalo doesn’t re-sign him before the market opens.

Other Free Agent Offensive Linemen
Eric Steinbach, UFA, Bengals
Jordan Black, UFA, Kansas City Chiefs
Dwayne Carswell, UFA, Denver Broncos
Derrick Dockery, UFA, Washington Redskins
Nat Dorsey, RFA, Cleveland Browns
Chris Gray, UFA, Seattle Seahawks
Norm Katnik, RFA, New York Jets
Ryan Lilja, RFA, Indianapolis Colts
Sean Locklear, RFA, Seattle Seahawks
Roman Oben, UFA, San Diego Chargers
Brian Rimpf, RFA, Baltimore Ravens
Eric Steinbach, UFA, Cincinnati Bengals
Todd Steussie, UFA, St. Louis Rams
Floyd Womack, UFA, Seattle Seahawks
Kris Dielman, UFA, San Diego
Damion McIntosh, UFA, Miami Dolphins

Jordan Black is the LTOTF

ck_IN · 12-27-2006, 02:31 PM

None of them. We will wait and sign for someone 6 weeks into FA that hasn't even been called by anyone else, we will offer them a blockbuster deal comparable to the 2nd LT signed in FA. Then Carl will brag about how he has fixed the OL with this aquisition and raise ticket/parking prices again.

they will all be breaking down our doors to play here...

Reerun_KC · 12-27-2006, 02:37 PM

We still will have Carl and Herm, so does it really matter what LT we sign?

Archie Bunker · 12-27-2006, 02:39 PM

Black at LT and Terry at RT.

Wow. Are you being serious? I know Black has played well in the last few games. Could he hold up to the best D-ends?

kepp · 12-27-2006, 02:46 PM

Silly, silly, silly...everyone knows that Carl starts at the bottom of the list and goes up

That's not what I'd do but that is what I picture CP doing.

C-Mac · 12-27-2006, 03:02 PM

FWIW I think that Carl will find good O lineman, is actually has been one of Petersons stronger attributes.

I Call

because we ALL KNOW King Carl is one TOUGH S.O.B. negotiator.

It will be a deal comparable to what we could have signed our own LT at and had a better player in the long run.

And........ we still get the raise in ticket prices so he its a WIN-WIN for DaKing.
