Re: we still need a guard
Because is the easiest position to replace in football. Why bring in someone now and overpay when we can wait until guys are a little more desperate and get a better value? The difference between a guywe sign now for a good amount of money and someone we sign in 2 or 3 weeks will be minimal and the guwe sign in 2 or 3 weeks will come at half the price. That is if we don't decide to draft someone who'll be even cheaper.
I swear. We finally show some restraint in FA and half the people want to know why. We spend a lot in FA dn the other half want to know why. I guess there really is no pleasing everyone. |

FRPLG - I am of the camp that thought the FO has been overpaying for the last couple of years and it is refreshing to see the FO being quiet this offseason (although I believe the main reason we didn't overspend was because the cap was limiting us more than other teams). I think the Skins are waiting until the draft to see what to do at Guard - whether they draft one or pick up one in free agency. To me I think some of the best pickups are the ones you make when players run out of options and sign a contract to avoid unemployment. A perfect example is what happened to the Deshawn Stevenson with the Wizards in the NBA. Deshawn got a little greedy and wanted a huge contract - the Magic declined and Ernie Grunfeld (a smart GM) let go of bricklauyer Jared Jeffries and got Stevenson on the cheap because there weren't many places that Stenvenson could get a contract from. Maybe the guard from the Ravens asked a little too much from the Redskins and someone in the FO said lets wait and either he will drop his price or we get someone in the draft - in my book this was a smart move in that he is coming off a major injury. |
