Re: Lavar Gone

I think he will end up in a Steelers uniform. Maybe a Browns uniform.

Re: Lavar Gone

Why would Lavar agree to give back 4 million dollars to a team that said if a deal was done or not he would have been cut? I do not get it are the Postons and Lavar just crazy in love with the skins and want to help the cause of what could be an opposing team down the road. Any player who was being cut no matter what, why give back money? I'm lost how does that benefit the player and his agent?

I think he has a "deal" in place somewhere already and he wanted to get out of his Redskins contract right away so he can sign as soon as possible with the new team.

if he didn't give money back, then the skins release him july 14th and no one has money to sign him with anymore.

Yes, in reality the skins did LA a favor by dumping him now so he could maybe catch on somewhere else.

To be let go before Free Agency Started that way he can sign a big contract with another team with a 10 -12 signing bonus before teams star shoping it was a good move fanancial wise for both sides.

I just didn't know you could do that, and also that the league would accept it as cap relief.... this way your team gets 4 mill back to get in 2 the cap and LA gets a chance early to sign with a new team if not the team would had realease him before July 4th killing his chances

Re: Lavar Gone

Im glad to see you go Lavar. You are no longer worth the money we were paying you. And I have already nearly forgotten about you.
