Him and Adrian Jones (Who was our best Offensive Lineman last year) would be the starters then IMO.

Your optimism outweighs your eyes, assuming you actually paid attention to the line last year. He was our third best O-lineman, and only our 3rd best because Fabini and Mawae were injured. He was a horrid RT, and a slightly less horrid LT.If our franchise decides he's our long-term fix I'll be mortified.

He manhandled Simeon Rice (except for one play), Patrick Kerney, Aaron Schobel and a few other top Defensive Ends last season. He struggled a little bit (Although most of the Sacks 'against him' were on stunt plays where Goodwin would let the Defensive End run right through), but that will get better as he gets experianced and bigger/stronger as he is currently doing, and as Kendall moves back to the guard.Who would you say was better? Mawae or Kendall who couldnt even manage to snap the ball without it resulting in a fumble? Jonathan "Sack Machine" Goodwin?, Jason "Single-handedly got Pennington and Fiedler injured with my missed assignments" Fabini? The only player I can see an arguement for that played better then Jones is Brandon Moore.

All teams have to do is stunt him to death, and he is through. He can take on bull rushers, it's his talent, but his not being able to handle spins and cuts are the reason Brooks Bollinger was constantly looking over his shoulder.1. Moore2.

Fabini</div>The problem with the Stunt plays was that the Defensive End would hit the inside and Jonathan Goodwin was supposed to block the Defensive End in that Scenario then, but instead he would let them run right through for the sack. Adrian Jones reacted fine on the Stunts, it was Goodwin that led to the sacks. Putting Kendall back alongside him will help him out alot since Kendall will be able to pick up the Stunts much better then Goodwin did.He does have some trouble with the quicker Defensive Ends, but word is hes planning on Beefing up to about 312 for next season so that added strength will help him manhandle the DE's IMO.

He already has handling the strength rushers down. His problem isn't his strength, it's his footspeed. I'd be more excited if I heard he was playing Tennis.

It can only benefit him, it would give him almost a 40-50 pound weight advantage on most of the speed rushers and help him to prevent the speed rushers from even getting to use their quickness as a weapon. Not only that, but im sure hes also doing some sort of aerobic workout to work on the quickness also.

Terms of the deal are not currently available.</div>Dont know how much I buy this guy and his sources....but sucks if its true.
i think Jones did well last year, but Moore was our best Olineman, held down LG all year, while Kendall and MAwae were becoming Geriatric. an oline net year ofbrickMooreFA CKendallJones/Runyan would be an effective oline
