I like this signing.

It gives us good depth at worst and means that we are less likely to take a OL with our top pick.

IF this helps the line then so be it. This team is already very young, so we signed a few older guys big ****ing deal. Alot of the older guys are interchangeable after seasons end anyways. YOu always have to have that mixture anyways.

its not like we were going to go 12-4 into the play offs. If this is the way they want to build their team with their vision so be it., I will reserve judgement until i see how it works. They do deserve that much.

If people dont want to give them that much, well thats your ****ing problem.

Here it goes with the dumbassness. "Maybe they didn't like Wade smith that much". Yea a guy who can play 3 positions on the line and play them good sucks.

I have serious doubts about the wisdom of this signing, but, if the bold is true, Pioli backed his way into a solid decision.

Ryan long snapper Lilja, FTMFW.

Lilja has been a starter for 4 straight years with one of the best teams in the NFL while Wade Smith has been a career backup. I don't get the comparison.

There is a Ulysses-type depth to your penzing.

It's really not that difficult to understand. Lilja wasn't that good last year Wade Smith was good when he played.

Good signing, as long as the failed physical was an excuse to get out of paying his contract.

The best part of this signing is that it narrows the chances of Albert being moved.

Unfortunately, it's still entirely possible that we do something monumentally stupid and either move Albert to RT or draft a RT at 5th overall.

It's so obvious, because of the dollars and all.

What are those dollars, again?

You can bet your ass it won't e 500K and lifetime supply of subway sandwiches. I assure you it will be more then what you sign a backup lineman for. Do you disagree with that presumption? If you do, I'll back to you once the numbers are released. I'm guessing 3 years - 6mil at least.

LT - Okung
LG - Albert
C - Waters
RG - Lilja
RT - O'callaghan

Then why sign Weigman, who can only play center, if you are going to do that?

Not that we are going to go with Laz's lineup, but Weigman would provide quality depth in that scenario.
