Jeremiah Trotter Signs with iggles!

[MTK]

I can't fault the FO for making the Trotter move. At the time it happened we appeared to have one of the best LB corps in the league. Arrington, Armstead and Trotter, who wouldn't have wanted that group?? We also killed two birds with one stone by taking away a key player from a division rival. A lot of people, fans and media alike, applauded the move and thought that the Skins defense was going to be significantly better because of it.

First Trotter had difficulty adjusting to Marvin Lewis' defense, but then again who didn't? Then, once he started to get the hang of things, he blows out his knee. To be fair to Trotter he never really got the chance to shine in this defense. But then again, there was a reason the Eagles let him go without much of a fight. His well documented knee problems were out there on the table for everyone to see, and the Redskins rolled the dice and lost.

It was an aggressive move that just didn't pan out. I can't fault them for trying, was he overpaid, definitely, but that's Snyder's MO. Was it the worst move Snyder has made? Not even close IMO.
