Re: Redskins sign Landon Collins 6 yr/84M
Team needed a Safety for sure , def overpaid Collins IMO but it's bound to happen in today's league.

Re: Redskins sign Landon Collins 6 yr/84M
Expensive. Dan and Bruce are ready to spend some money to inject some passion back into the fan base. Nothing says #HTTR like a compromised salary cap.
But I do love the player. Will be fun rooting for some serious hitting again.

Re: Redskins sign Landon Collins 6 yr/84M
Splash signings are a must not only to put butts back in the seats but to also win games. Bruce/Jay on borrowed time. They know they need to win yesterday.

He said the team source who he spoke with replied with something to the effect of left guard is not defense. The message Keim said the source was sending was that the team is focused on building the defense. The shift in focus gels with some conspiracy theories about the lengthy meeting with Gregg this of season Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

Re: Redskins sign Landon Collins 6 yr/84M
Source says the the 3y/$45m number that @RapSheet reported isn't fully guaranteed.
Still working on all the details, but this deal is going to be a lot more practical than the eye-popping 6y/$84m that first crossed all our twitter feeds.

Re: Redskins sign Landon Collins 6 yr/84M
Landon Collins' 149 defensive stops are 13 more than the next closest safety since 2015.

Re: Redskins sign Landon Collins 6 yr/84M
Some additional details:
Craig Hoffman @CraigHoffman Source says the the 3y/$45m number that @RapSheet reported isn't fully guaranteed. Still working on all the details, but this deal is going to be a lot more practical than the eye-popping 6y/$84m that first crossed all our twitter feeds. As Andrew Brandt says, agents are going to push for outlets to report the flashy total contract money, which means nothing.

Draft Deionte Thompson. Bama walls up front and in the back.

Re: Redskins sign Landon Collins 6 yr/84M
Scared money don't make no money.
We need a bonafide starter at safety. He is one. Sometimes you gotta pony up. And he is another legitimate leader in the locker room.

Since people don't remember the Vinny years, under him we would have paid Earl Thomas $85 mil guaranteed.

Plus we can cut and replace quite a few spots on this roster to recoup lots of this space. Next step, lockup Scherff. Then supplement on the back end of FA.

Re: Redskins sign Landon Collins 6 yr/84M
Maybe would've preferred Mathieu but this was definitely the position I wanted a splashy signing.
Don't see where we're going to use the cap we're going to create (ZB, VD, MF, McGee, Scherff) better than here. Envoyé de mon SM-J320FN en utilisant Tapatalk

Re: Redskins sign Landon Collins 6 yr/84M
I'll hold off on judging the money until all the details are known.
