We could use the depth.

As the regular season approaches, a guy who has been on the field every Sunday since 1997 still doesn't have a job.

But, by all indications, he will soon.

Per a league source, tackle Jon Runyan has been cleared to play after offseason microfracture surgery to repair an injured knee.

We're told that three teams are interested in Runyan. According to the source, Runyan rejected an opportunity to sign a contract last week because he didn't want to play for the team in question.

He's going to turn 36 in a few months and he's coming off surgery, I don't think he'd be that expensive.

If he's healthy and if we're shaky about our backups at tackle, I'd think we'd at least consider it.

we ought to sign him just to get the beagles game plans, etc......like they did to us w j leman

Another tackle:

The Buffalo Bills have finished the purge of big-money free agent offensive lineman signed during the 2007 offseason.

Previously cut was Derrick Dockery, after a possible trade to the Lions fell through.

Now, Jason La Canfora of NFLN reports that the Bills have cut Langston Walker, the presumed replacement for Jason Peters at left tackle.

Per La Canfora, the Bills tried to trade Walker before cutting him.
