[quote=Bangee7;1106461]But didn't Long have his knee reconstructed in Oct or Nov before the draft?

That takes awhile to come back from.[/quote]

Long did have a knee injury in October of his Senior year. However, according to this link it was not reconstruction surgery

The Redskins have reached for O-Lineman that were ranked much lower than the Redskins picked them .... (LeRibus, Long, and Moses) so far they look like wasted picks.... I hope I am wrong

I remember Moses being ranked low 1st/high 2nd. I think Gruden is moving away from ZBS blockers but didn't change system first year. We need OL but we should see better OL play under Callahan.

Re: 2015 Free Agents
 

moses fell and was considered a bit of a value pick. the other two were taken at least a couple rounds early.

Re: 2015 Free Agents
 

[quote=HailGreen28;1106459]Agreed, and the crummy "regular" refs the NFL uses (why did we not keep using the replacement refs again? they would have gotten used to standing up to players) have a bead on Merriweather. Half the PFs they called on him were legit hits.[/quote]

i think you forget how bad the replacements were. hint: they were terrible, and it was affecting the outcome of games.

true, some places had Moses as a 1st or 2nd round pick.... not the NFL scouts though... he was the slowest OL at the combine, and one of the weakest. I do not share your optimism that a new blocking style will make him more productive.

Re: 2015 Free Agents
 

Coming off a tough injury we probably can't expect much of anything from Moses this year. Shame.

I still want Mike Iupati in a Redskins jersey. He and Trent next to each other can have that Walter Jones, Steve Hutchinson look on the field

Me, too. Sign Iupati, draft the best RT candidate, and move on to fixing the defense. Lauvao should be OK as a member of that line.

The only other FA I really want is Devin McCourty. I say pay the man! We need a top FS in the worst way.

So, I say we should pay top dollar for a FS and an OG who we can can plug in and then only go for bargains on young players for any other FA's we sign.

Cut the high-priced deadwood to pay for them.

Vernon Davis may be cut due to salary, 31 years old this year, depending on price of course, would you sign him? Former draft pick of Scott M ....

I would be happy with Gibson, or McLeod from DeMatha/ UVA.... they are young, and should cost less

I wouldn't sign anyone over 28 years old other than a QB or an OL who has been free of major injuries.

never say never, but he'd have to be ridiculously cheap. he looked BAD last year.

Re: 2015 Free Agents
 

Vern is a local guy so he might want to come back to the area. My guess is to Baltimore depending on Pitta.

Re: 2015 Free Agents
 

Iupati is a must sign for this line. He may be resigned. I would gizz in my pant if the starting oline next year was

LT Williams
LG Iupati
C Wisniewski
RG Lauvao or Long
RT Scherff
