I think Steve Smith is still injured, otherwise he'd be getting more interest. I don't understand either, he was like Wes Welker-lite a couple seasons ago in NY. Caught everything you threw at him.

Carlos Rogers just signed a six year deal with a Finnish juggling troupe!

In a quick retirement tweet the former NFL cornerback stated that "my hands are a gift to the world and I have decided to take my talents to Helsinki."

Crazy.

I think I would like to barber at running back for us and maybe even columbo!

Really? I got a report that said he's trying out for the Galaxy because "he wants to play a sport where your hands don't matter."

Just a camp body, if that, I'm sure

But we just signed this dude

I hear we're in serious negotiations to add (direct quote via text) "Major acquisitions at offensive line and corner back...you guys think you're done. You haven't even started"

Which, based on my Jayson Werth like batting average this past week, means we're adding a running back and a linebacker.

Ryan Harris and Cromartie is what I'm betting on.


Or that could be code for 20 more WR's

JJ at CB, Harris at OL and Edwards at WR

If by JJ you mean Johnathan Joseph then that wouldn't be possible since he signed with Houston.

Damn didn't see that, thanks buddy been gone all night lol.. Well maybe Cromartie?

Re: 2011 Redskins Free Agents Rumors and Reports-Part 3
 

I would rather see the Redskins sign Harris than Brown, young and when healthy pretty solid. Right now he is healthy and ready to go.

I feel the same way, except that I wanted to get Brown back to get something out of the picks we gave up for him.

Re: 2011 Redskins Free Agents Rumors and Reports-Part 3
 

I think we're going to re-sign Jammal Brown, but if not then certainly Ryan Harris is a possibility. But I got the sense it's someone else. I'd like to think it's Joseph, but he's all but staying with Tampa.

As for DB, I really don't know. Nate Clements is now available and his name has been floated out there. Maybe it's Richard Marshall, who no one is really talking about.

I've thought since the spring Cromartie was high on our wish list (and it wasn't just my gut instinct, it was based on some info) so I'll stick with that as the prediction.

But honestly, I don't know.

Meanwhile, wonder what's going on with Buchanon

Any chance at all that we still sign Cullen Jenkins?

At this point it really doesn't matter after all the signings they've made. My favorites are Bowen, Cofield, Chester, Wilson, Rocca. This team is shaping up as a solid unit, if Beck comes through who knows what they can accomplish.

[quote=skinsfaninok;815838]I'd love 2 but i doubt it[/quote]

At this point I think it'd be overkill to get C. Jenkins. I'd rather spend it on depth in the offensive line or a veteran CB.

Jenkins agent would turn it down like Brandon Stokley's, too many lineman already on the roster.

The coaches need to realize that competition is beneficial to a point. The competition they tried to create at Receiver is ridiculous not to mention it could easily be counterproductive. Less reps, less coaching, and the chance that a diamond in the rough could be cut because they aren't a practice player like Jacobs. It's like setting a goal thats only technically obtainable, like 'winning more then a free ticket in the lottery.'

We NEED a Right tackle and a big corner. a true #1 wr would be nice but that doesnt look to be in the cards. And then we need either another ILB or OLB, whichever slot Alexander isn't backing up.

Who are the big names left at OL? Anybody available through potential trade? Curious to see who could be on our radar at cornerback. Maybe Josh Wilson was a potential P. Buchanon replacement?

That is a hell of an upgrade, I don't see what's so special about Buchanon and he's in his early 30's.

Im gonna say Dahl and Cromartie BUT.....based on our history, I wouldnt be surprised if its Asomugha

I fully exespect a starting Falcons Lineman signed to be in a Redskins Jersey today.

Re: 2011 Redskins Free Agents Rumors and Reports-Part 3
 

Dahl would be nice.

Re-sign J. Brown and the OL is ready to rock.

I want:

Guard:
Harvey Dahl AND/or Brian Waters (just released by KC)

Corner:
Cromartie or Clements (unless Nnamdi is possible!)



Honestly, I'd rather get Cromartie for less money and get better O-linemen with that cash. D-Hall and Cromartie (or Clements) with Josh Wilson as nickel back and first backup...great CB squad. Also Barnes is on the bench too but I really like him better as a FS backup.

[quote=GridIron26;815976]I hope we will get those players in bold[/quote]
I say get Dahl AND Waters. Waters is 34 but still good. Quality depth is important, especially with how injuries have been rocking our O-line for the past few years.

Williams - Waters - Chester - Dahl - Brown


^Awesome line!


Another possibility is RT Ryan Harris from Denver, who has played for Shanny before. If you notice most of the moves being made league-wide...most players changing teams are reuniting with old coaches and coordinators since there is no time to learn a new system due to the lockout.

I'd love to get Jammal Brown back but if we don't, Harris is the best route.

Buchanon played way above expectations last year IMO. GTripp said that PB probably had the best year he could & likely couldn't duplicate that again. I agree w/that. He is still a good 3rd cb, reminds me of Walt Harris' late in his career when he filled in nicely for us.
