Darby is injury prone as hell and not even very good. Obviously a downgrade from Dunbar. I think this team is looking way into the future fir the most part and not trying to reach or break the bank. Im fine with that. Build slowly, and smartly. Do not understand this move.
Build through the draft, do not take on injury prone or sub par players. Depth depth and more depth smartly through free agency. If a young healthy player we could use is there in free agency than go for it. We need corner but one who will be on the field. I feel like they just flushed a few million down the toilet just to save face in free agency.

Yeah, I def think CB is still a very draft-able position if we like someone. I think Fab and obviously Darby will be free agents in 2021.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
 

2015 2nd Round pick.
26 years old
local kid - oxon hill/potomac hs (do they wear green?)
5'11" - somewhat short
4.38 40 - 5 years ago at the combine but thats an elite time

3m contract, max value at 4

------------------

We need some vet bodies at CB. is this guy, at 26, now our most vet corner? thats insane.

we need to add another guy like this. physically he fits in the nfl, still young, just hasnt put it together.

injuries .. at 3M .. with our CB group looking it is .. you sign the guy for 3M and see if he can stay healthy.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
 

In terms of performance, we definitely lose in the tradeoff between Dunbar and Darby. it almost seems like as part of this "buy in" to his program Rivera is adding marginal journeyman who are happy to just get an offer and and will not speak up or demonstrate any individualism. Conformity seems to be preferred over talent.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
 

So.... We were glad to let a #1 (on our team anyway) go that was "injury prone" but we are ok with signing a dude that is also "injury prone" and he was garbage last yr...

Got it

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
 

Dunbar great sin was showing his ass in the media before actually meeting his new head coach. That's a bad first impression and ultimately lead to him being traded.

Disagree that it is obvious. Dunbar had a better 2019 than Darby, yes. Other than that, Darby has been hands down the better player. Not close. Now, will the rest of their careers be like 2019, or will they be more like their careers as a whole. Could go either way, really, but the answer is far from being obvious, IMO.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
 

Dunbar still whining about things after being traded is a pretty clear sign of why he’s no longer here.

Culture.

Agreed. He's 2 years removed from a SB win where he played pretty damn good. What has Dunbar achieved to date aside from a PFF grade that probably overvalued him. He looked like he had potential 2 years ago and did improve but he isn't exactly all pro material. I suspect we've swapped an equivalent player who doesn't want to be here with one who does.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
 

I followed Dunbar on IG and I couldn't understand one fucking post of his. My head will spin less because of moving on.

And Darby went to FSU.

For selfish reasons I'm pretty happy with the move. And Darby can play. Just gotta accept he will be missing games. Still need to draft a CB this year.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
 

Dunbar started only 25 games in 5 years, and never played a full season. I don't think we're losing much here. Relax...
