Bob Brookover, of the Philadelphia Inquirer, reports the New England Patriots might have interest in free agent OT Jon Runyan (Eagles).

Can he play receiver?

But we could use another proven tackle...does anyone think that Kaczur could be moved to RG if this move happened?

So what is the plan if we sign him? Move Light to RT? I can't envision Light being big enough or strong enough to play RT and although old, Runyan is still lightyears better than Light IMO. I can't see how this will work unless they know something about Light's rehab from his injury that we don't.

Get Fabini over Runyan... Although the plan looks like to build up the o line and protect Brady's backside...

Well at 33, he fits our un-official FA requirement -- being older than dirt.

Runyan or Fabini...

Runyan
- former pro-bowl RT & if the Pats sign him, he'll play RT (as he did in Philly) and Light will stay at LT
- although he's in decline, he'd be an upgrade over Ashworth/Gorin

Fabini
- played L for the Jets for years and played RT part of this year for them
- he would be a great signing because of his versatility to play both sides and I think he's an upgrade over Ashworth


I also wouldn't mind seeing one of the following...
Marc Columbo
- former first round pick who has talent and perhaps could benefit from coaching

Mike Pearson
- solid former starter for Jacksonville- good player but is a much better pass blocker than run blocker and thus is not ideally suited for the right side

Huh, I was mistaken. For some reason I thought Runyan had been playing LT. This would make alot more sense now.

Light-Mankins-Koppen-Kaczur-Runyan

That right there would be a very nice looking O line.

Terry Glenn is a cowgirl

LT is Tra Thomas I think. Has been for many years.
