[quote=EdmundDorf;1247874]I think $20m was too much for him to be honest, but that they tried to sign one player for $25m makes this seem like they have no coherent plan. Either you are trying to rebuild the culture and working to 2021/22 or you are spending big to win in 2020,[/quote]

I don't have a problem with the team spending money on a 26 year old player in their prime and clearly the best offensive free agent.

But some fans wanted us to trade for Darius Slay (older player, no draft capital to get that type of player), trade for Diggs (young player, yes, but no trade capital to get him), or get Emmanuel Sanders (older somewhat expensive player).

It sounds like people want to win the offseason again.

We've been the CHAMPS at this for years. Look at all the silver wear we have from doing this.

Emmanuel Sanders got 2 years and 16 million. That's a good contract. I would have done that.

He wants to win now can't blame him. i don't think we made an offer to him anyway. We as fans wanted him to mentor the young group of Wr's we currently have.

Emmanuel Sanders wants to win now, he's wasn't coming to a rebuilding team.

Keim reported that the Redskins only offered Cooper $23m in guaranteed money. Dallas gave him $40m fully guaranteed, with a total injury guarantee of $60m.

This business that the Redskins significantly outbid the Cowboys and he settled for less is nonsense - according to J Keim.

It's always about the money...

And when it's not about the money it's about the money.

Skins sigh RB Peyton Barber 2 year deal per NFLN

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
 

Peterson
Guice
Love
McKissic
Barber

Depth and insurance not a bad room at all. Going to be interesting to see if Love is ready

I think this is somewhat odd move unless Love still isn't ready

Peterson is still good but he's old

Guice is injury prone and Love hasn't played.

I can see why they are concerned

I definitely see why they are concerned. Would have rather drafted a RB but whatever. Come on down Peyton Barber
