[QUOTE=MTK;1279862]I wouldn't trade for him either, let him get cut. I bet he'll be chomping at the bit to play Philly twice a year and he'd be a great fit here, if healthy of course.[/QUOTE]


Exactly

[QUOTE=Chico23231;1279844]Looking ahead: Washington needs to find a long snapper and while no names have emerged those who have called have been told they have a list. It still needs a TE; they did make an early offer to one of the top TE's available, though it's uncertain which one. It wants to add an OT as well. Washington knows the draft can help in many areas it wants to fortify (OT, TE, LB). Like last offseason, a big key now is strengthening the depth in multiple areas.

Per Keim.


They again offered a top TE for the second year in a row missed. Tackle, LB and TE continues to be the focus.

Getting Ertz for a forth round pick and a short contract...I wouldn’t have a problem with.[/QUOTE]


I wonder if the backup center they just signed will become the long snapper.

@InstantRHIplay
Curtis Samuel said he wasn't concerned about there being no clear cut quarterback in Washington. He's focused on his job and making their job easier to throw to him.

Probably not. Long snapping has become such a specialized position I'm sure they will end up signing a true long snapper.

Eric Fisher...call me interested in what the price would be and expected recovery time

Absolutely. I had this thought as soon as he was cut.

Re: WFT Free Agency
 

We need to sign a LB that fits what we do still some good names out there.

Re: WFT Free Agency
 

I brought up Fisher earlier in the week. Definitely worth at least assessing. Achilles will make an evaluation tough though. He might remain an FA for a couple of months and be a reasonable pick up post draft?

he was long snapping for FG's last year.

Then why cut Sundberg? I didn't remember him having a bad season last year.

Re: WFT Free Agency
 

He didn't get cut, he was an FA and signed elsewhere. The question is actually why not match/better the offer? They probably didn't see enough from him to warrant the extra cost compared to other talent on the roster/in their sights.

I don’t believe he left on his own accord. I thought He was cut due to health concerns from his tricep tendon injury. Don’t believe there was an offer at all?

Re: WFT Free Agency
 

Jackson owns a little hog. Perfect signing lol.

Elbow surgery. Still recovering. He snapped with partially torn ligaments this year. The ball was tailing on him a little. I think there’s at least a little concern on Ron’s part that he won’t come back the same, or at least enough concern to say I can just find a different snapper at the same price (minimum) who will perform the same, and I won’t have to think about elbow recovery.

Probably thinking of it as find his replacement now as opposed to finding out in August he can’t snap at all and scrambling to find one. Harsh but prudent.
