Said new guard Justin Smiley: ``The most important unit is the o-line and we're making all the right moves.'' -- Miami Herald
Glad to see no one is upset over the changing of positions. Now lets hope this O line works well together and has good chemistry. Also, sign Carey long term.
Our offensive line is going to be fun to watch. Long, Satele, Carey, Murphy & Smiley. While other teams were out making sexy picks we were building up our offensive and defensive lines....that's where games are won or lost. Parcells knows what he doing, and we can pick up WR's like Bess, and get some CB's and Safetys over time.
Carey's deal should be done before we go into training camp, we have more than enough cap space and the quicker we do it the more likely we get a discount.
