He was the Ravens back-up LT to Oher and played in all 4 of the Ravens playoff games and did well. He is a free agent right now. His salary was $3.5 mill last year. Now he's been in the league for 11 years, is 33, and has had some character issues in the past. But at 6'8 354, he may be someone we can plug in for a cap friendly short term deal. Assuming Lane Johnson won't fall to 15, and people have expressed thoughts about taking Chris Faulk despite his injury, others are out there, including Terron Armstead from Arkansas Pine-Bluff who ran the 4.71 in the combine. May allow us to draft someone, and give us a little time to develop them while McKinnie fills the void for a year or two. This is providing Charles Brown doesn't become the man. Thoughts?

seems like I've heard of this McKinnie cat before



I'd link a past thread about him but that's offensive to many here

Not sure about sombody thats been in the for league for 11 years and not starting coming here to protect Drew, we would be just as good with Brown imo.

Still a good OT but old...I'd prefer younger OTs.

I'd be fine with McKinnie if he doesn't want a lot of money. I honestly think we go after a tackle later in the draft. Pretty sure we got Nicks, Evans & Bushrod in the 4th round. I'd look for more of the same this year.
