Love to hear things like "play breaker" ... seriously.

Jeremy Reaves coming back on a 2 yr deal

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

There are still T's available, and potential LT starters in there. Yes, Smith may have injury question marks, but he had a return to form last year. Then there's Williams, who has flexibility, so if ew draft an LT he can play RT. Or Josh Jones who basically got stuck behind Tunsil but is well favoured.

I wouldn't be surprised to find we've been in a bidding war for 1 or 2 of these guys and something will happen by the end of the week, one way or the other.

Very happy about this. An easy guy to root for. I’ll bet Tress Way is relieved too.

Fingers crossed

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Per Ian Rapoport....we have signed Bobby Wagner, 1 yr deal.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Well LB is set.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Wow. Ok...

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Well if Davis can't learn/get inspiration/take mentoring from Wagner he's a lost cause. On paper this is the best LB crew I can remember in Washington, so here's hoping reality mirrors that paper!

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Wow. What a turnaround in that position group.

Gimme Tyron Smith and any capable corner and it's an A+ from me.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Both Wagner and Luvu have knocks on them about their ability to cover in space. Do we have anyone that is going to stop TE's from running free in the middle?

Better than Bostic and Mayo.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Wagner is on his 3rd team in 3 years and will be 34 by the time we play our fnext game... SMH...

Some of these signings have been solid, some are real head scratchers and this is one of them.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Wagner on a 1 yr deal is a great move. Even at 33, he lead the league in tackles; and he’s an upgrade over Davis, and Mayo.

Actually Chinn is the one that had suspect pass coverage skills.

Maybe Luvu is the TE killer?

I am more concerned with having enough cap left to sign an OT and CB

It's a 1 year deal. It can't hurt.

And he's definitely in the top 3 lb on the team.

It’s a one year deal and we had the worst LB’s in football. We can also draft one who can learn from the master now. It is a great move.

Tackle and Corner will be addressed in the draft.

We absolutely knocked FA out of the park. We have 9 new starters. 10 - forgot about Ott. 2020 pro bowl long snapper. All upgrades. All under 3 year contracts. Still 6 picks in the top 100. This is going to be a completely different team.

Luvu and Wagner. Davis has one more shot.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

A lot of these moves like Wagner are about plugging holes, can’t do it all in the draft. If we signed Wagner to a multi year deal I could understand not liking it but come on people some of you just aren’t being realistic

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

I have to agree with Punch and MTK. This is plugging holes and attempting to build a competitive team for next season, on which to build the year after. If we get a franchise QB with the #2, great, but we still need to build up a team around that guy. We want to be the Texans not the Panthers; give your rookie QB a shot year 1, not stick him in the middle of a shit show and wonder why he sucks.

I imagine Davis will now be the 3rd LB.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

[quote=nonniey;1360281]I imagine Davis will now be the 3rd LB.[/quote]

I actually wouldn't be surprised if they try him out in a Parsons type role. He has the speed to be a pass rush type LB. Question is, does he have/can he learn the technique?

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

[quote=punch it in;1360267]Winner winner chicken dinner[/quote]

Nope. As has been pointed out coverage is the one thing Chinn can't do. Pretty sure the coaching staff is aware of that and won't put him into the situation where the D primarily relies on Chinn's coverage ability.

9 new starters? I count Luvu, Wagner, Chinn, Armstrong, Allegretti, Biadasz maybe Ertz and Ekeler. Who am I missing (are you counting the special teams guys? That would be 10 then).

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Im thrill we have gotten 2 baller LB in FA, this has been embarrassing these last several years.

I love it, but the saddest part of this is also that we have 10 new starters through free agency...Half the team (starters) needed to be replaced. Probably more...draft will be fun!

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

[quote=punch it in;1360278]Luvu and Wagner. Davis has one more shot.[/quote]


Agreed


Edit: I also think a top 3 round LB would be fine.

Davis sucks.

well that's what we did with Sam ..

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

As exciting as it is that we've brought in 12 free agents most of whom have a very likely chance to start, just think how bad that says the team was that you can change basically half the starting lineup offense and defense with reasonably priced upgrades.

I did read the plan was to have him closer to the line and rushing the quarterback. Wish i could find the link again.

Absolutely counting ST’s especially LS. What a fucking disaster that was.


DE Dorance Armstrong
LB Frankie Luvu
C Tyler Biadasz
RB Austin Ekeler
G Nick Allegretti
EDGE Clelin Ferrell - this is who you were either forgetting or not starting
S Jeremy Chinn
K Brandon McManus
LS Tyler Ott

Wasn’t counting Ertz. Wagner might not have been signed when i posted that. He is 10.
