How smoothly guards can transition from side to side? I know the move from LT to RT (or vice versa) isn’t always automatic but I thought interior linemen were more interchangeable.

And as I pointed out in the other thread….He is an AFC East guy, so Pioli will know if he is worth a look…

we can always use youth and bodys hey brian helped albert be a tackle maybe he can help this guy

bills 49ers raiders rams and jags on the list to come over. to los angeles

First, I was very repsectful and kept AP’s name in good standing while representing you guys.

I asked, was this a financial move or was he just not that good?

Replies:

It was probably a little of both – he’s not terrible – but not worth what we were paying him. He seemed to regress this past year.

Well I wasn’t expecting this, that’s for sure. After it had been determined that his salary wasn’t that much for this year, it makes even less sense.

Really, they cut him just to save $500K? We still have to replace him with someone.

At least we finally did something about an overpaid underachiever. Don’t stop here, OBD, you’ve got plenty more to get rid of. Dockery may end up the poster boy of the vaunted Marv Levy era and the stench it left on the franchise.

Still I’m confused, we don’t have a backup option and we aren’t saving a great deal of money. Was Dockery THAT bad last year?

Although I’ve got to say that Buffalo’s running game was pretty underwhelming for most of last year so I don’t know if he’s worth a big contract. A lot of that was Jason Peters, but nobody seemed to think Dockery was an All-Pro.

but any help on our oline would be nice even if this guy could come in as a back up we need depth.

I can’t fathom a reason why y’all would want Dockery, big deal or small deal. He regressed significantly from 2007 to 2008, and he could only be considered “above average” in ‘07. He really isn’t worth your while.
