If Snyder can work something out, I feel like he should get it. I'm not saying he doesn't deserve it BUT I am saying that even if the Redskins were to say "Fred, we seriously cannot go a penny more without putting into jeopardy our other priorities."

I know that sounds very selfish on the Redskins side, but he says he is a team player and a team player would acknowledge that and respect that for the good of the team.

But if they DO have the resources (and God knows they do) then go ahead and pay the bills.

I wouldn't say Smoot is defiently gone just yet, He will have to get an offer probably much better than the one we have offered and I don't believe he will get it, if he does leave I think it will be because the coaches believe they can replace him with player's already on the roster, Wild's I am not sure about but apparently William's believes the kid can start, I also liked Rufus Brown he was very impresive in the pre-season I believe we are fine if Smoot leaves, but it's a shame that we can't give him more and dump a ton of salary into player's like Lavar and Brunnell between the 3 Smoot is the only one deserving of a big contract.

With free agency, you can't get too attached to having a player be on your team. Smoot's received a very fair offer. You can get to a point where keeping a player means you are prostrating yourself, and signing him out of the fear of what will happen if you don't.

If Smoot demands a salary that will hurt the team, then in my book you shake his hand and wish him well. We have got other talented players already on our team. There is no need to turn around and draft another cornerback in the first round or even necessarily in any round if Smoot leaves, as I see it.

Amen. Even though I'd love to see him stay and show us that he IS a core player.
