special c Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Shaffer did get a lot of money but he turned out to be a really good tackle for the Browns. Also Garza was a backup the whole time he was here but he went on to start for the Bears. I'm not saying these guys are top tier guys, but they are better than what we have now. Simply my opinion, feel free to disagree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's the end of OTA period and TC is far away. Nothing wrong with a little speculation. It's not like there is anything important going on to post about.

Fan Z Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 special c (6/24/2008)Shaffer did get a lot of money but he turned out to be a really good tackle for the Browns.

Simply my opinion, feel free to disagree. I wouldn't mind having Garza, but Shaffer is only good now that he's swiched to RT. It's obvious that his ability to protect the Qb's blind side from the pass rush, he definately couldn't do that for Matt Schaub whenever he came in. Thank goodness Vick was a lefty.

I think that's why we let him walk. There was no reason to believe at that point that he'd make a whole season being healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
