Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
This is not the first big money corner he has signed as a GM so it is not unusual for him to do this. He loves big physical corners with attitude.

49ers make Clements NFL's highest-paid defender ever Mar 3, 2007 Len Pasquarelli It took a monster deal to lure cornerback Nate Clements to Monster Park, but on the opening day of the NFL free-agent period, the San Francisco 49ers delivered, agreeing with the most coveted player in the market on a landmark contract. McC's done this before folks

Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
He wasn't terrible, but the point is McC is not afraid to make a big move.

Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
just because you have a good gm doesn't mean you can't make big deals. it's just that you have to hit 90% on big money deals to not hurt your team.
like someone else said, this is djax, a great player let go after the market rush, allowing you to save some money while getting a guy that normally wouldn't be available. |

Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
I'm all for it. Still trust Scot.
Been a major need for years. Also will shut down Beckham Jr 2 games a year...

Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
Josh Norman will be a bargain. Why? Because he'll be covering Beckham and Dez at least 4 times per season, so we get to see Josh play 16 or more games per season PLUS we get to see 4 or 5 PROFESSIONAL FIGHTS between Josh and either Beckham or Dez within the games. Where else could we find such a deal?!

Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
I believe it was tandler this morning who said look for a 5 year deal, but really more of a 3 year deal when the ink is dried.

Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
Janoris Jenkins, Byron Maxwell, they are good corners but they are not game changers.
Norman was FIRST TEAM ALL PRO.

Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
If we get him, just hope Norman performs better than Clements did. I kind of remember him being the top corner at one point and he went there and just did OK.
I LIKE that he does fit what we do, but I worry about the dynamic in the locker room when you're giving someone a giant contract. I guess we've earned enough goodwill extending our own that people wouldn't think "same ol' Skins" again.
