There's a ham sandwich somewhere with Archuleta's name on it and it's headed the Redskins' way.

[quote=GTripp0012;277199]If the Bears truely want him, they'd be wise to give us some compensation. If they trade for him, they get him under his current deal with 6 years remaining and are liable for no part of his signing bonus (which we would take the remaining 6/7 of as dead cap). If he sucks there, the dead cap penalty for cutting him would be a whopping 0 for the Bears.[/quote]


I don't think that would be wise at all.

First, if the Redskins get rid of him they will flat drop him.

Second, why the hell would anyone want to touch that contract with a 10 foot pole? After the Redskins drop him, they can sign him in the neighborhood of the league minimum. Around the league, he is viewed as an injured "never was".

they'd want the contract cause the first three years ARE at vet minimum, and they wouldn't have to pay any of the signing bonus (that's ALL on he skins). so they get him cheap for two years and can toss him at any time with no penalty, and there'd be no negotiations to be hassled with on that contract either.

and for the earlier post, the union put in a rule because of lavar's giving money back AND suspended his agent (for two years) for allowing him to do that.

According to Canuck's sheet '08 has a 1mill salary and 1 mill roster bonus. '07 is at the minimum.

They would still have to send some compensation. Would they even want to let go of a seventh rounder?

actually, in the week after release, any team can pick up a player with his current contract intact (waiver system) before it's totally ripped up. the bears' success would put them behind other teams though, i believe. not sure if you can start a bidding war on a guy claimed by multiple teams, but i'd think not.

Re: Bears interested in Archuleta
 

i say we trade AA to the bears for nothing in return. whatever it takes to get him the hell out of here is good with me.

You might have to accept Richfood because Kraft comes a bit pricey. Maybe a coupon for some Kraft but an ACTUAL slice..... you might be asking for alot there bro

Re: Bears interested in Archuleta
 

If we could get a 4th or 5th rounder for Arch, I would be loving life.

Im shocked that someone is.

Re: Bears interested in Archuleta
 

Of course as the Redskins, if the Bears aren't willing to give at least a 4th, I'd hold onto him, saving the cap space.
