Jason Taylor Released

I'm of the opinion that Heyer has great fundamentals and can start in this league, but he's just so unbelievably raw. It's incredible if he has to run a toss play or kick out the backer or something he just has no idea where the player is.

That's the thing, is that Heyer only has one more year to show progress in that aspect, or he becomes too costly to keep around.

So where, if anywhere, do you see Devin Clark falling into all of this? I found it kind of interesting that both he and Vinny have mentioned Clark (along with Rinehart) as guy they're expecting to step up for 2009?

Second question, suppose we bring Daniels back (or even if we don't) with Haynesworth, Griffin, Monty, and Golston would you entertain any thoughts of sending Alexander back to the offensive side of the ball?

I don't see Devin Clark fitting in anywhere. It's interesting though, unless Jansen bumps inside, we currently don't have a backup Guard or Center under contract, outside of Rinehart. If Clark can handle, say, Right Guard, he might have a future. At tackle, no.

I would not send Alexander back to the offensive side under any circumstances. He's a bad blocker, and has no redeeming qualities. But as a defensive player, he can play the 3 shade or the nose equally well (although we go three deep at the nose now), and has very good skills.

agreed. Im not expecting much from either of them in 2010 though. Both would be lucky to make the active roster at any point during the season.

On another subject, am i the only one a little troubled by the fact that we have 13M in cap space and arent doing anything to improve our team after losing Springs and Taylor?

But we know they are impulsive and don't have any plans, so they should be spending it as fast as they get it. (and actually, I kinda figured they would have signed someone by now also)

I think they have done a really good job with the three signings so far, kudos to Dan/Vinny and the FO. Yes of course impulsive isn't out of the question, Dan Snyder is the owner.

But for what reason would you think they don't have 'any plans'...? Explain. All the other moves have been well thought/planned out, expect Dock he became available unexpectedly and happened to be an area of need for the team.

I totally disagree with the they don't have 'any plans' for the next move. I'm quite sure they have a solid game plan for the next move or moves in the FA market.
