- if it's true that the Phins' first offer to the Redskins about O-gun included them asking for Patrick Ramsey, that sort of makes me wonder how much faith they really have in Feeley.
- next year, the Phins' first pick in the draft will be a D-lineman, probably a DT. I say this because obviously it seems T.Bowens is on the decline (I think this will be his last year as a Phin), and I think Larry Chester is very overrated among Phinfans. I know he's dropped a lot of weight and looks better this year so far, but over the past week I've watched some Phin game tapes of last year (monday night game against Eagles, also the Chargers, and last game of season against the Jets) and he wasn't impressive at all. He provides literally no pass rush ability, which isn't a surprise, but I was surprised to see how he actually gets taken out of the play often (way more than I would have expected) on run plays. TimBo was obviously the better of the 2 on tape. I think Chester will still be a starter for the Phins for the next few years at least, but I don't think he's as good as most fans want to believe, or at least as I wanted to believe.
- in watching the Chargers game last year against the Phins, I also kept my eye on Damion McIntosh, who looked real good. He's real physical, very powerful at the point of attack, and is a much better run blocker than I had expected (which makes me wonder if he'll move to RG when he gets healthy: W. Smith...J.James...McKinney...D.McIntosh...V.Carey - that really would be a hell of an O-line; and Jerman and St. Clair as the top two backups would also be solid). (BTW, Wade Smith will be a legitiamte solid starting LT next year.)
- I 'm all for if O-gun leaving for a first round pick (and maybe a little more). I think Jay Williams and David Bowens can handle the job fine together, along with Grigsby, who could provide solid depth. Also, Kenny Holmes and Peppi Zelner are both unsigned right now, and one of them could possibly be signed if O-gun leaves, further solidifying the position. Plus, if keeping O-gun really does mean that Chambers would be virtually impossible to keep next year, then i'd definately be fine if he left, especially for a first rounder and maybe a bit more.
