Interest in Flozell the Hotel?

[HoKiES34]

we need all the help we could get..trading for McNabb was a sign that we wanna win now.. Flozell Adams could start for us next year if we sign him so im all for him.

But, it soon became clear Jacoby would beat out May at LT. May was shifted to RT. George Starke was the only holdover at RG. The HOGS were born.

But, that was Bobby Beathard calling the shots. Does anyone think the current front office can pull that off?

And that was how the road to Super Bowl Glory began ! How I wish it would begin, again!

Thanks HanburgerBum for reminding us all!

Not if we continue to trade away draft picks. Im all for rebuilding, but not with has beens and retreads.

There was a story in the Dallas papers criticising the release of Flozelle. Two guys went through all of the film and rated him as the second best o-olineman last year (Davis as worst, followed by Gurode). True he gets dumb penalties, but as a stopgap and on a team that will run the ball with emphasis, I think he could certainly have value.

especially at right tackle, where he wouldnt face elite pass rushers on every down

[BIGREDSKINSFAN1963]

if he signs,so be it.i hope they preach to him about the stupid penalties he gets for playing dirty!

1. Lack of choices and no rumored trades at this point means beggars can't be choosers.

At right tackle yes... At left... Maybe

As long as he chop block all of my professors into giving me straight A's, I'm all for it.

Pay the man something reasonable and stick him in at RT. Otherwise it will be Heyer for another year.

Not sure Flozell fits the zone blocking scheme Shanahan runs. Don't we need more mobil tackles?
I'm not sure mobility is Flozell's strong point.
