Bryant Mckinnie and John Jerry aren't good starters but they are good depth to have on the bench. At this point we can draft our remaining linemen and have them groomed by the new vets on our team. And maybe we can focus the rest of our cash on a running-back.
 
A lot of people here will roast you for suggesting that. If they fail to bring in any more vets, I personally agree with you. If McKinney could be signed for a cheap 1-2 year deal, he'd make a decent back up.
Jerry is the same thing. Short cheep deal to back up at RT & RG.
 
I want McKinnie back. He would be great for leadership on the line and a good backup for Albert and whoever will play RT (which may very well be him!!). I have liked him since we picked him up, and I know he is happy in Miami. Let him finish his career here.

Jerry, no thanks. Not many qualities that would make me say yes. He has been given more chances than many, and i just dont see where it has paid off for us.
 
I want to keep both McKenney and Clabo for depth.. Hope that's possible.

Jerry is not only not very good, but he is implicit in the bully scandal....if you want him might as well sign Cogs back, Cogs is WAY better
 
I find it hard to believe Jerry can keep his ass in shape as a backup. He needs to play to keep his weight in check.
 
I can see Tony Sparano at Oakland Raiders getting excited to land both of them. He'd be drooling at the size . When you talk corn-fed linemen, these are two corn (very well) fed linemen - around 700 lbs between the two and both fully understand harassment. However, hopefully we can get better.
 
Tyson Clabo is a human turnstile. Please no. I'd rather have Jonathan Martin. Hahah I'm just kidding... but Tyson Clabo is hot garbage.
 
Jerry can't come back here. We're undergoing a culture change & he was part of the bad culture. The next olineman we should be on the phone with is Donald Penn to play RT. I can't believe Oakland allowed him to get out of town.
 
Seen enough of Jerry.

If we can't get anyone else and he comes cheap, I'd bring Mack back to play RT or to be a back up. I'd not bother anymore with Jerry. Guy is too lazy, can't pull and we need new blood. Martin, Cogs gone and Jerry needs to go too.

Ozzy rules!!
 
McKinnie was on WQAM and would like to be in Miami. He is willing to compete at right tackle. He could be a backup swing tackle. In any event, he is basically useless in the run game.

Jerry is dumb, fat, lazy, and a character problem who can't run block to save his life. His time has passed in Miami. He never should have been here. Miami drafted him over Jimmy Graham.
 
I don't think Jerry can return because of the scandal. But not sure they'd want him back he's not a good run blocker and they're trying to improve in that area. Shelley Smith for example, is billed as a great run blocker.
