The problem with that is that Tampa Bay has the most cap room and needs to spend over 40 million [est] so why would they no pay Joseph what he wants?
I think Dahl and Blalock would be great targets as Atlanta will be focusing on Clabo.

Meh, he's a UFA, so it's not entirely up to them. I'm just not a big fan of Dahl and Blalock has exactly one season above crappy on his resume.

I am wondering where there Bears are right now?
Apparently the Bucs and Cowboys are bidding on Doug Free and Minnesota and Seattle are going back and forth for Sidney Rice.
I would rank the remaining free agent OGs that we have been discussing in the following order,
1. Davin Joseph
2. Harvey Dahl
3. Justin Blalock
But any and all would be big upgrades, I know Blalock does not have the longest resume, but Chris Williams has exactly 1 good NFL game let alone a season.

Dallas reached agreement on a four-year, $32 million deal that included $17 million in guaranteed money with OT Doug Free.

I would have paid that if I was the Bears and played him at either LT or RT, that seems incredibly cheap for a young stud LT.

A guy I was begging for on draft day. When I heard NIU in the third round I had a smile a mile wide, then when it was followed by Garrett Wolfe, my heart sunk.

I was ballparking $30 mil over 5-6 years for these FA OG's anyway and he's just a tad over that. Others may come a little cheaper but none of them should be outpriced for us.
I'm getting to that age where a lifetime warranty just doesn't mean as much to me anymore as an afternoon nap.
