Re: Redskins FA Eve
 
I am seeing some quality players getting let go across the league. If we went for a shotgun approach with pieces that make sense this year instead of reaching for the stars, I will be happy.

I am very happy with everything the team has done so far. This has such a different feel of any of the recent free agent periods.

I agree. It helps to feel that we're being run by professionals.

[quote=vallin21;669235]Hopefully Rolle will sign here, and it would be cool to have Rolle playing the spot where his childhood friend ST played. Rolle would help LL get back to playing well in his natural position kind of like Taylor. I wish we could get rid of Rogers and sign Robinson.[/quote]

Apparently Dunta Robinson is leaning toward the ATL

I hadn't thought of him but he is intriguing.

I hope that happens. I don't think it is a good idea to break the bank for someone who wants to be a 3-4 linebacker but has no track record.

I agree, but lets also remember every FO up till now has been shackled but the sins of the previous ones due to the Salary Cap. This is a new start, a clean slate, this FO has every opportunity to build and live up to their potential. I am hopeful going forward.

What if 5 years from now we look back and celebrate the uncapped year and salary purge as the rebirth of the Burgandy and Gold....

I haven't heard much about him lately but he was a pretty good player. Wonder why he was released?

Not lately. Well recently they started to get back on track but they've been relatively mediocre since 2002. At least by their standards.

They should consider Atogwe. I still remember him taking that botched Kendall reception to the house.

I agree with Dansby, Rolle, and Robinson. We already got rid of two RB's over the age of 30...no reason to bring in another one....same thing with Jamal Williams....we just got rid of Griffin..no need to bring another 34 yr old DT.

This needs to get younger!!

No I just threw it out there. Heck, I didn't even know he's been released. When did that happen?

Thanks for the link.

I don't think thats unreasonable.

[B]Rabach agreed to a three-year contract worth about $12.3 million, according to the source. His contract voided after the season and he was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent.[/B]

4 million a year isn't that unreasonable for a starting center.

I think JLC is getting a boner getting talking about the Redskins overspending during free agency in the NFLN. Someone should remind him how late he was in reporting the Haynesworth signing last year.

Let's wait till the end of the weekend till we say that. Other than losing Chris Samuels which is no surprise, we have only cut Randy Thomas. He hasn't really played a full season in years.

He got old quick ot going definately not going to be the next Ray Brown.

Seems like they're going to draft one if Allen is going to stick to his word of rebuilding the entire line in one year. Maaaybe they'll look into Chad Clifton if GB can't lock him up. I'm just speculating.
