No. Dude is washed up. Ravens picked Grant over Maclin. Nothing more needs to be said.

Re: Redskins free agent signings 2018
 
I don't know what the offers are (or were) that have been extended. While I appreciate the idea of not breaking the bank for big names, as has been done in the past - and rarely worked, you have to pay at some point if you want to improve the team. I'm stuck wondering a couple things. Is it possible that players just don't want to play here because they don't want any part of this team? Are they undervaluing players - both our own and other free agents while other NFL teams are adding? Do they really have a plan to improve? I can't figure out what's really going on...

I hear it's still possible that they retain Zach Brown and Junior, and DRC is still a possibility, but they'll have to start writing some checks...

I feel pretty good about him ending up back here. He’s simply not going to get top dollar. He’s not a complete player.

I just feel the Redskins don't really value their own guys. Never have under Snyder. Only on a few occasions. But they'll rush to pay guys from other teams in a heartbeat.

Idk.. but so far they've let a bunch of their drafted players leave. I would think that you have to try and re-sign Breeland and Murphy over giving Richardson 20 million guaranteed.

I don't think that's been true for a while. I can think of a ton of guys we have kept and re-signed. But at the same token, not every "great guy" is worth keeping from a football perspective. We have only rushed to pay DJax and Norman, in recent memory, and they both were one off's. We also have quietly extended a lot of our players over time. But some players (maybe a lot of players) do want to see what the market is, that's what the NFL is nowadays.

I like that we are keeping Brian Quick. I'd like to see what this WR group can do with Alex Smith behind center.

Anderson from Alabama? He showed absolutely nothing. I guess w/ Murphy it just looked like he was starting to turn the corner until he got hurt. Would have liked to see him stay.

I just think you do everything you can to keep those guys and worry about Scherff next year. Would not have signed Richardson at all.

Ebron was a former first round pick that had Matt Stafford to throw to him for four seasons and couldn’t do squat. Pass.

Re: Redskins free agent signings 2018
 
Redskins are finally starting to grasp how winning organizations operate. Now they have to continue to improve at executing a draft-centric, stable process and they could actually start turning the corner. The key is successive excellent drafts while letting marginal players walk when they come up for pay hikes. All indications are that they’re finally figuring this out. We now have continuity at coaching and are valuing things like the draft and compensatory picks. It’s a small step for most franchises but a giant leap for Redskinskind...

Breeland threw a fit over Norman, and even though he seemed to get better, I think he wanted to be THE guy, and he isn't and wasn't going to be it here.

Murphy, it's funny to see gripes about him leaving. His best year was followed up by getting popped for peds and a season ended injury. He was a good player, but we got younger and better from last year's draft.

As for Richardson, don't know why you would not have signed a solid WR to compliment Doctson after Pryor bombed. Would you have paid 14M to keep Grant instead?

CRedskinsRule 03-14-2018 06:37 PM

Re: Redskins free agent signings 2018
 
Between Cousins, Breeland, Grant and Murphy, I would think we will be looking at 2 to 3, maybe even 4 comp picks next year. That's not a bad thing.

It’s not how his works though, you have to have an eye on the future when making moves now. Scherff and Preston Smith will both command big money. How about Crowder too?

I just mentioned that in another thread. Yes, I think this is better for the 'skins anyway. Might be saving some money to re-sign guys like Schreff and Preston Smith.
