Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings

The initial rush of free agency is settling. Now is when guys have to face reality as the second phase begins, probably plenty more one year deals on the way.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings

I would like to see some competition at ILB, continue to build up the middle. Hopefully we can add a guy who does a little better a stopping the run.

Im good with Mason Foster...he is good in coverage and decent run stopper.

Re: Highlighted sentence above.

Answer: Sign Zach Brown. Would 143 tackles (94 solo) in 2016 be enough proof for you?

Let's wrap up this FA group by signing DT Johnathan Hankins and ILB Zach Brown. Then we can move on to the draft and go true BPA every round.

Yeah! I've been staring at him since the beginning of free agency, real tackling machine, I think we can sign him at a reasonable price, can't we?

In fact I'll be fine with him and Mason Foster at ILB if we add a real playmaker at DT !

I think Reuben Foster will be our other starting ILB.

Yes, Reuben Foster and Zach Brown - our new starters at ILB. We go from bad to bad-ass.

Id take that for sure. But an upgrade is a necessity for a better defense next year. Wil Compton isn't a starter.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings

Foster is coming back from rotator cuff surgery, maybe he will slide due to that injury. Could be a risky pick, remember Doctson.

Doctson wasnt hurt when we drafted him, and every pick is a risky pick.

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

Per @MikeJonesWaPo: Redskins announce they have re-signed Ziggy Hood, and that Vinston Painter has signed his ERFA tender.

Per @john_keim: The Redskins released Ricky Jean Francois. Would have counted $4 million vs. the cap.

They save $3 million cutting Ricky Jean ($1 million of dead cap). I hope they did not give Ziggy any guaranteed money because if they draft well he is not making the team.

Do you think he was cut due to play or his comments about the team?
