The Bills' offensive line is getting the early attention at One Bills Drive as Washington free agent guard Derrick Dockery is the third lineman to arrive in Buffalo today.

Earlier today Oakland free agent right tackle Langston Walker arrived in Orchard Park to meet with the Buffalo coaching staff as he considers the Bills as a potential new employer.

Dockery however, is considered one of the premier interior free agent linemen on the market.

The 6'6" 335 pound lineman has been Washington's starting left guard since the time the Redskins made him a third round draft pick in 2003. Over the last two seasons one thing Washington has been able to do is run the football ranking 7th in rushing in 2005 and 4th in 2006.

Dockery has also proven durable in his four-year career as he has made 61 consecutive starts.

If Buffalo manages to sign Dockery he would likely step right in to the vacant left guard position. That could create a very physically imposing left side on Buffalo's offensive line as he would be paired up with emerging Pro Bowl talent Jason Peters.

R56, I edited your title since it was a tiny bit misleading.
