Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread
[quote=punch it in;1284158]I know. Was just wondering what you thought about holding onto him for trade bait ....[/quote]
I think if someone wanted him they would have pounced right away. I have no problem giving him the chance to catch on somewhere else vs holding him captive for a late round pick that will probably never come. |

Under Bruce there's no doubt we would have done something petty like hold on to him. It's good to have adults running the show now.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread
I mean..I don't think him backing another player is the end all be all, but in that situation, Trent was trying to hold the team hostage...and the more it played out, the more it was him using excuses to get more money on a contract that he already signed. Not to rehash that whole situation, but he knew not having a lt on the team would be debilitating...and he used that, and Moses backed it. Like...f>×_ the team...he should get that money. That's all I meant.
This does seem like financial planning for the year after this, though. Regardless....he is not irreplaceable. Haven't been a fan of his for a while now, honestly. Can't stress enough....those penalties |
Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread
[quote=punch it in;1284153]Maybe but I was just addressing the comments by EdmundDorf about why they released him now instead of waiting to see if someone got desperate and offered a trade for him. I think it is a valid point. And yeah totally agree about ur take on him supporting a teammate.[/quote]
I feel like releasing him now may indicate there is another veteran out there they may want to pick up (KJ Wright, Julio Jones, Aaron Rodgers; not necessarily in that order). 😉 |

While I think he felt underpaid, stop and really ponder if it would really be all about money for you if team told you no problem, and then you had to have a brain tumor removed! That's FAR more important to Trent than retiring with $30M more in bank when he's already worth $50M+ at that point. I think he honestly felt he would never trust existing medical staff and FO again, and I don't blame him. We can't know Washington's side because of HIPAA confidentiality, they are NOT allowed to disclose private medical info. Pro athletes are usually uneducated (despite having college degrees) with low IQs. It is entirely possible situation was explained to Trent correctly and he misinterpreted. Nonetheless, when you look at case history, right up to today with Allen BS, Trent's side is hardly ridiculous. Is there anyone besides Gibbs who has left Washington that hasn't been smeared or cornholed by THE DAN? Could be more systemic incompetency poor culture than some Dr. Evil let's kill Trent scenario. I mean Jesus, people have been complaining about our turf for a decade plus, we're just now doing it. If they were going to punish Moses punitively, would have been done long before now. THE DAN has eaten millions upon millions to be the petulant turd of a human being he is, eating $20M to cut Moses years ago would have been NO problem. I think it is simply about RR making a smart personnel move. As you observe, penalties, but also getting absolutely destroyed in pass coverage off the edge far too often. He epitomizes our old paper tiger OL. Against better edge rushers he gets exposed. Moses is right siding with Trent, and I have nothing negative to say about his character, work ethic, etc., solely analysis of his play. We have MUCH cheaper players that are better pass blockers, period. |

Nah. They aren't making any dumb trades. And they can sign most anyone with super low number this year that balloons later years. This was about being able to pick up several lineman, Leno Flowers, that no one knew for sure would be available, and draft one, Cosmi, that made a number of players expendable. Suppose Leno mans LT. I think Cosmi is a day one starter at RT, though I prefer letting him try LT. Day one Cosmi is at least as good a pass blocker as Moses. Cosmi is making $6.7M over 4 years. He will cost less over four years than Moses would have this year. This is a case study in why draft picks are gold and you don't trade up in most cases. Belicheat in NE always LOVED high second round picks because you could get 1st round talent, if you draft smart, for super cheap deals. Cosmi costs 15%-20% of what Moses does, roughly, if you average value of his rookie deal over 4 years. Other teams that have 3-5 more picks than us per year, comp especially, or trade back aggressively or for future picks aggressively, will always be better if both run competently because of this dynamic. Our FO did it right. You get rid of older players, replace them with draft picks, and spend most of your cap money signing young players you drafted who have proven success in your building, organization, and program and scheme. If you draft well long term, virtually all big deals go to players you drafted and know, which we are rolling up on hopefully. Better teams are always ruthless about getting rid of aging players. It is a cold blooded business, but letting guys like Moses, Kerrigan, etc., go was the right choice. |

I am all for forward thinking when it comes to managing the cap and keeping the young building blocks, and if they prefer the other options they have at OT then great save cap space when final cuts come.

I think the FO saw Moses' film and knew he had lost a step, and had decided he was gone no matter what with Leno and Cosmi on roster, because his contract overpaid him relative to his present production level and talent.

Releasing Moses early gives him a chance to sign on somewhere else, and is a class move that typifies RR and why players love him. The FO had obviously 1,000% decided Moses was gone, maybe they wanted him to take a pay cut he refused, and it was the right decision.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread
Ryan Fitzpatrick can make history this season ..... and not in a good way.
He could be the only QB in NFL history to have lost to 31 different franchises. 3 QB's have wins over all 32 NFL franchises (Brees, Favre, P. Manning). No QB has losses to all 32 franchises. Ryan can get the closest if the Skins lose to Green Bay, New Orleans, and Tampa Bay. Anyway ... linked to article, and copied and pasted below ... [url]https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/05/23/ryan-fitzpatrick-can-become-first-starting-qb-to-lose-to-31-different-teams/[/url] [I]Three starting quarterbacks in NFL history have wins over all 32 NFL teams: Drew Brees, Brett Favre and Peyton Manning. Tom Brady will join that list if his Buccaneers beat the Patriots this season. And Aaron Rodgers could join the list too if he ends up on another team, and that team beats the Packers. But no quarterback has accomplished the feat of losing to all 32 teams. Washington quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick can come the closest this season. Fitzpatrick has lost to 28 different teams as a starting quarterback, according to Pro Football Reference. Of the four teams he hasn’t lost to, three are on Washington’s schedule this season: The Packers, Saints and Buccaneers. If Fitzpatrick loses to those three teams, he’ll have lost to an all-time record 31 NFL teams. (The Lions are the one team Fitzpatrick hasn’t lost to and won’t play this season.) Although no starting quarterback has lost to 31 or 32 different teams, seven have lost to 30: Drew Bledsoe, Drew Brees, Brett Favre, Matt Hasselbeck, Jon Kitna, Carson Palmer and Alex Smith. One quarterback, Kerry Collins, has lost to 29 teams. But all of those quarterbacks are retired, so they can’t reach 31 losses like Fitzpatrick. In addition to Fitzpatrick, the other quarterbacks who have lost to 28 different teams in their careers are Derek Carr, Jay Cutler, Joe Flacco, Jeff George, Eli Manning, Warren Moon, Philip Rivers, Ben Roethlisberger, Matt Ryan and Vinny Testaverde. Carr, Flacco, Roethlisberger and Ryan can still add to their totals, but none can reach 31 different teams this season like Fitzpatrick can: Ryan’s Falcons only play two of the four teams he hasn’t lost to, while Carr’s Raiders and Roethlisberger’s Steelers play one each. Flacco’s Eagles play two of the teams he hasn’t lost to, but he’s not expected to start this season, so Flacco is unlikely to add to his total. Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers and Matthew Stafford have each lost to 27 different teams, but none of them can add more than three new losses this season, so none can catch Fitzpatrick. In a strange way, losing to all 32 teams is a more difficult accomplishment than beating all 32 teams: Quarterbacks who lose a lot of games usually get benched or cut and don’t last long enough to lose to all 32 teams. It’s hard to keep a starting job for a long time while losing a lot of games. But Fitzpatrick has been a starter for eight different franchises, and Washington will be his ninth. He’s had an unusual career, and this year he can do something unprecedented in NFL history. [/I] |

[QUOTE=Chico23231;1284227]I really wonder what Jason thinks….he seems reasonable, relaxed and normal. I would love to sit back with a beer or bourbon with Jason Wright and just ask him what’s it like working for Snyder.
This was just the weirdest, wtf Snyder moment I’ve seen in awhile. TMZ folks, TMZ[/QUOTE] Jason looks to me how most employees look in the presence of their billionaire bosses — slightly awkward, eager to please, and committed to the party line. I admit that’s how I’d be lol. I just hope there’s a line of self-debasement he won’t cross. Maybe he turns down the invitation to watch cheerleader videos in Dan’s suite. |
Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread
Dan's probably got a home cinema set up for that. Doubt he'd do it at the stadium/offices. He's not THAT stupid is he?

[QUOTE=Pervis_Griffith;1284222]Ryan Fitzpatrick can make history this season ..... and not in a good way.
He could be the only QB in NFL history to have lost to 31 different franchises. 3 QB's have wins over all 32 NFL franchises (Brees, Favre, P. Manning). No QB has losses to all 32 franchises. Ryan can get the closest if the Skins lose to Green Bay, New Orleans, and Tampa Bay. Anyway ... linked to article, and copied and pasted below ... [url]https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/05/23/ryan-fitzpatrick-can-become-first-starting-qb-to-lose-to-31-different-teams/[/url] [I]Three starting quarterbacks in NFL history have wins over all 32 NFL teams: Drew Brees, Brett Favre and Peyton Manning. Tom Brady will join that list if his Buccaneers beat the Patriots this season. And Aaron Rodgers could join the list too if he ends up on another team, and that team beats the Packers. But no quarterback has accomplished the feat of losing to all 32 teams. Washington quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick can come the closest this season. Fitzpatrick has lost to 28 different teams as a starting quarterback, according to Pro Football Reference. Of the four teams he hasn’t lost to, three are on Washington’s schedule this season: The Packers, Saints and Buccaneers. If Fitzpatrick loses to those three teams, he’ll have lost to an all-time record 31 NFL teams. (The Lions are the one team Fitzpatrick hasn’t lost to and won’t play this season.) Although no starting quarterback has lost to 31 or 32 different teams, seven have lost to 30: Drew Bledsoe, Drew Brees, Brett Favre, Matt Hasselbeck, Jon Kitna, Carson Palmer and Alex Smith. One quarterback, Kerry Collins, has lost to 29 teams. But all of those quarterbacks are retired, so they can’t reach 31 losses like Fitzpatrick. In addition to Fitzpatrick, the other quarterbacks who have lost to 28 different teams in their careers are Derek Carr, Jay Cutler, Joe Flacco, Jeff George, Eli Manning, Warren Moon, Philip Rivers, Ben Roethlisberger, Matt Ryan and Vinny Testaverde. Carr, Flacco, Roethlisberger and Ryan can still add to their totals, but none can reach 31 different teams this season like Fitzpatrick can: Ryan’s Falcons only play two of the four teams he hasn’t lost to, while Carr’s Raiders and Roethlisberger’s Steelers play one each. Flacco’s Eagles play two of the teams he hasn’t lost to, but he’s not expected to start this season, so Flacco is unlikely to add to his total. Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers and Matthew Stafford have each lost to 27 different teams, but none of them can add more than three new losses this season, so none can catch Fitzpatrick. In a strange way, losing to all 32 teams is a more difficult accomplishment than beating all 32 teams: Quarterbacks who lose a lot of games usually get benched or cut and don’t last long enough to lose to all 32 teams. It’s hard to keep a starting job for a long time while losing a lot of games. But Fitzpatrick has been a starter for eight different franchises, and Washington will be his ninth. He’s had an unusual career, and this year he can do something unprecedented in NFL history. [/I][/QUOTE] Brady, Rodgers have lost to 27, Roethlisberger 28 like Fitzpatrick.

[url]https://www.tmz.com/videos/2021-05-19-051921-daniel-snyder-1083297/[/url] Snyder touring across the world for “stadium ideas.” This seems kinda staged but why does Snyder seem so awkward? Glad Jason is now advising him…and Snyder is staying out of football decisions So let me get this straight…Snyder won’t talk or give interviews to the press, yet speaking to *checks notes*…TMZ? Jfc…[/quote] Wow a reporter actually caught him out in the wild .. I dont think Ive seen Snyder speak like that, off the cuff. Its usually once every 4 years or so with prepared statements behind a podium. I think this was a sneak attack street interview that caught him and Jason off guard ... but in this social media world nothing is organic, everything is staged so who knows. I thought Snyder did well. My expectation is very low though. |

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread
The fact that Wright said "The name will be announced pretty soon" leads me to believe it will be before the season starts. I bet it stays WFT
