Re: Redskins Free Agents List

So you guys would really want to trade the best QB we have had in a while for some unknown draft picks?

I think this is nuts if we don't bring him back.

The last time we had a QB we could have any kind of confidence in was Brad Johnson in 99 when we won the division and actually looked pretty competent. Then we go out and sign Jeff George after that season and set our franchise back down the toilet.

This franchise needs to just pay the guy and keep building this thing. We don't have a QB. Do we really want to sit around and wait another 2-4 years to develop another guy and muttle through 5-7 win seasons again....

That is just stupid. With the bump in the cap and at a 23 mil deal the percentage that Cousins would take up is around 14.4% which is lower than the percentage he took up this year. IF we start over at QB again Jay will be looking for work in a year and this team will be back to ground zero all over after finally putting together two seasons in a row with a winning record. Cousins will only get better here, but starting back with a rookie makes me want to vomit.

I'd be willing to bet both sides are just playing this out through the media to build their case. Cousins could have made it much easier on his agent if he didn't lay an egg on the last game -- but I'd bet he's going to be here long-term.

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

Breaking Burgundy's Ben Standig reports the Redskins have shown interest in impending free agent Kenny Britt.

CSN Mid-Atlantic's JP Finlay is also hearing the same. Britt is coming off a career season, posting a 68-1,002-5 line as one of the only bright spots for a 4-12 Rams team. It was Britt's first 1,000-yard season of his eight-year career, and he'd reportedly be interested in the Redskins if Kirk Cousins is brought back. DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon are also free agents in Washington. Britt is from New Jersey and would likely be very interested in a return to the East Coast.


Interesting...McC like big receivers...makes sense.

I remember a year or two ago, maybe more, he was a big target in FA the Redskins FO had their sights on. We were hot to get him. But I forget if he got injured or he just signed with someone else.
I guess it might finally happen.
However, I do not want to sign a WR to a big $ contract.
We have too many needs to get another WR. That would be a luxury not a need. Unlike all of the needs we have on Defense, offensive Guard and a blocking TE. A high dollar WR only makes sense if we lose both Garcon and DJax.
If we only lose one, I have to say.....PASS!

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

Gallette will be back on a 1 year contract:

Redskins make decision on Junior Galette

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

Figure Britt interest is about redzone issues.

Is Britt's Madden attribute-rating on "RED ZONE TD FADE ROUTE" 100?

I agree with you, I think Doctson size was appealing for that same reason.

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

Adding britt means Djax is definitely gone and I believe he's already gone any way. He's probably going back to Philly which makes no sense to me but hey whatever. Britt isn't a deep threat but he's a good WR.

It makes perfect sense to me. D.Jax knows we won't pay him, Philly will, they need him, they have a young promising qb, he knows the HC from his previous time in Philly, and he's probably still got a lot of friends on the team. I think it's practically a done deal barring an outrageous offer from some other club.

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

They cannot "show interest" in Britt until free agency starts. Also, he has had off the field issues.

Junior Galette said today he intends to sign a one year contract with the Redskins. And says he is healthy.

If Galette signs with us and is able to perform nearly as well as he has in the past, that would be a boost for our defense.

I can't even imagine the physical and emotional pain he has gone through during the past two years. I wish him well.

2 years removed from playing a down, I don't know what to expect any more. If we got anything out of him it would just be a bonus at this point.

KBritt-Crowder-Garcon-Doctson is a solid stable.
