Redskins Re-sign Omar Stoutmire!? (Rumor)
 

I'll mark this as a rumor for right now, but I saw this on Extremeskins (via ESPN2) so I'm awaiting the confirmation......



What is this a reunion!?!?!


Welcome Back :)!

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

it'd be a good re-signing. good depth and a good special teamer.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

it is the arch espn article as being true

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

Didn't he start for the Saints for the first half of the season? Either way, I think this is a pretty good move, depth-wise.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

I didn't know he was on the market or did the Saints cut him? He played pretty well for us in 05, 10/11? games.

Good move, I'm sure bargain priced. Alot of action in one day if true.
Welcome back. WHAT'S NEXT? :)

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

It's true. I like him but more than anything it seems to tell me that they're not comfortable with Prieoleau's health right now.

Unless, and I hope this isn't true, they're thinking they can let Springs go without replacing him. And someone like Pierson or Omar takes the nickel spot behind Smoot and Rogers, or Jimoh gets it, or John Eubanks finally gets his chance to shine

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

washingtonpostlive on comcast was just talking about bringing the stadium back to DC - that would be a pretty big off season move

Stoutmire makes for good depth, but we really don't have another candidate at the second safety besides Prioleau. We're counting on him.

yes!! Eubanks should make the probowl this year

I agree. DB is such a speed position, and with an ACL tear you just don't know how PP will bounce back. Fortunately the injury occured on literally the 1st play of the season, so his recovery time frame should be enough. I hope. Either way Soutmire knows the D and is another able body. He can't be any worse than AA and will cost a hell of a lot less. Although he will be 33 when the season starts. I am holding out hope that Springs will move to safety.

washingtonpostlive on Comcast Sports Net was talking about since RFK isnt gona be around that much longer and Snyder has lots of money and that Redskins games are still pretty much sold out even with out winning seasons that theres a chance RFK 2 might happen. I think this was talked about in a old post.
They were talking about superbolw and even final 4 possibilites with the stadium (said there would be a retractable roof)

Here's a link to a story about it

[url]http://www.thewarpath.net/washington-redskins-news/17521-bloomberg-dc-wants-redskins-back.html[/url]

And if anyone wants to do a search they can find previous threads about this. But let's keep this thread on topic and about Omar

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

fenty is meeting with synder, they already said its a long shot, and synder's camp already said they're going to honor their 30 year lease with PG (20years to go). there's still about 200$mill in debt on the current stadium too. it's not happening, it's just a pipe dream, and will continue to be, for at least 10 more years.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

would be nice to have him back and add some safety depth, he knows the system and can play teams

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

anywho, now that I finished fantasizing about RFK V 2.0, Stoutemire's #s last year were 13 games played, 44 tackles, 2 INTs, 5 passes defensed. He only has 7 career picks, and has never had more than 72 tackles in a season. Like I said, he knows the system but, but I really hope this is intended as nothing more than a depth move. Especially since he'll be 33 when the year starts. We need Prioleau to be healthy.

Thanks. Sounds nice and all, sure do miss the vibe of the old RFK!
However, no seating capacity in comparision to FedEx. Danny Boy needs that 92k FedEx sold out every week, so he can sit around and count all those C notes.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

I'm really glad we're starting to realize how bad we screwed up last year...this team could be alright by the time the season rolls around

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

I like the signing. Seems like we're really focused on having better depth in the secondary more than anything.

Stoutmire didn't do bad for us in 05....at least not as bad as AA was in 06.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

would be a good move should have kept him and clark. Glad to have him back.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

Good move if it's true. He'll add depth.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

Any chance of signing Clark back? j\k ;)

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

This is true

The Redskins made another move in the defensive backfield on Tuesday, reaching agreement on a one-year deal with safety [URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=4019"]Omar Stoutmire[/URL]. Stoutmire, who played for Washington in 2005, has also played for the Cowboys, Jets, Giants, and Saints in his 10-year NFL career.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

It would be a good signing, Omar knows the system well and would be a viable backup behind Prioleau at SS.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

i like the move, anything to add quality depth for cheap.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

I don't care what some of the so called football guys have said.We are making some damn good moves this year.We fix our LBs and now we have a lot of depth in our secondary.I think our front office is starting to wake up.I am looking forward to the draft that is for sure.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

Are we talking about Stoutmire?

At first glance, I thought we signed Amare Stoudemire.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

stoutmire was pretty good for the skins in limited playing time. and he also plays special teams. good veteran pick up

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

I like this signing so long as the f. office provides some new competition for his roster spot, which there likely will be in a late rnd. pick or undrafted free agent. Reed Doughty will be back to fight for a roster spot, but he's a long shot.

I think GW is going w/familiarity & comfort level rather than sheer talent in this offseason. We've now signed 3 guys - Fletcher, Smoot & Stoutmire - who have played for GW before.

Re: Redskins Resign Omar Stoudemire!? (Rumor)
 

good pick up, he'll play AA's position for less than half the price

Re: Redskins Re-sign Omar Stoutmire!? (Rumor)
 

Its not a rumor anymore, I heard it on the B-Mitch show and he didnt say supposively or anything, he said the redskins signed stoutmire to a one year deal.

Funny how they announced this so fast with the Arch stuff going down.

Re: Redskins Re-sign Omar Stoutmire!? (Rumor)
 

I agree that he'll provide quality depth..............plus he makes damn good cookies!

Re: Redskins Re-sign Omar Stoutmire!? (Rumor)
 

diehardskin2982:

Indeed he'll play Archuletta's position for less than half the price. What the Skins have to pray for is that they don't get what they pay for...

Imagine if he plays Archuletta's position less than half as well as Archuletta did...

Now that would be butt-ugly!! :nono:

Re: Redskins Re-sign Omar Stoutmire!? (Rumor)
 

I like the move and will work out well. I don't think he was scapegoated, he flat out could not play in our defense and got burned more often than not. Omar is an upgrade over the most expensive sp teams player of all time. We will be fine with PP back from his injury and the other moves we have made and could make with the secondary. HAIL!!

Well, i think we [I]did[/I] get to see plenty of Archuletta getting burned.... are you suggesting that we shouldn't have benched him?

Re: Redskins Re-sign Omar Stoutmire!? (Rumor)
 

You guys suck for even liking Stoutmire. With the safety class as deep as it is this year, we instead should be licking our chops at a player with some serious upside. We might as well sign Arrington back and his PSU buddy, Courtney Brown...
