I would have rather moved on. We ran the ball just as well after Weary was out and we now have a lot of young OL who either need to have room on the roster or they'll get cut. Weary is getting a little old now and while he is better than he was under the old regime, I don't see him having any upside beyond what he has already shown.
Depth is nice but we probably can't keep more than 10-11 linemen between the roster and the practice squad. This just makes it harder for someone like Spencer or Frye to make the team.
At least they signed him to a more cap-friendly figure than the old contract.
