Shaun Rogers and Redskins Talking

[SBXVII]

Sandtrap,

And did the judge give him permission to leave the state of Ohio? There is a little matter of Rogers carrying a loaded handgun through security at Clevelands Int'l Airport.

I'm betting the judge incorporated that he could leave the state for work purposes and most likely installed the wording that he would have to notify his probation officer prior to leaving. As long as he does those things he's safe. If he gets a new job in a new state I'm sure he can transfer his probation to whereever he goes.

Yes lets just sign Shaun Rogers to a contract, thats the missing piece we need to this team! That'll put us in the super bowl! (being completely sarcastic and a smart-ass btw)

One could say that about any of the positions mentioned on this site. I think the funniest one had to be the crowd talking about the RB position.

Your right there is no one position that is going to take us to the SB especially since we have so many gaping holes, but what if the team plans to trade or dump AH? They have to fill his spot and if the plan is to use and develope Bryant then they still need to replace AH with some one who can either back up Bryant or start if they are better.

I'm betting no matter who else is brought in or what position someone will not be satisfied and come up with a fabulous sarcastic remark about how said player is the ticket to the SB. I just wish people would realize the 10 years it took Cerrato to ruin this team will take more then 1 or 2 offseasons to fix.

No one here is going to sit here and tell me Kemo is better than Shaun Rodgers. That being said, sign him. He will have a small contract that won't matter if he doesn't have anything left. To all the people saying he is old, washed up, this isn't helping us get younger, this isn't the way to rebuild a team.... We have too many holes to fill in one offseason. He won't be a long term solution, just a stop gap. Get the sand out of your vajayjays.

This would be the classic Snyder move. Throwing money at a problem whether there is an answer or not.

So.... what's your answer? Clearly the team has some glaring holes all over the place and the team has only 6 or 7 picks most in the latter two rounds. You know rounds where the majority seem to think the players are camp fodder. So I you only have 3 or 4 decent round picks how would you plan on filling the other holes and get better back ups? Just wondering cause as far as I'm concerned Kemo did diddly, AH did diddly besides lay on the ground often. So if the team gets rid of AH, and Daniels that's two spits that need filled.

Guys let's take a a minute and think about things. A guy was CUT from his team and we're TALKING to him. Does anyone have any evidence of saying we want him for so many dollars, a certain role, etc...

Teams talk to players A LOT... starters, backups, etc

TALKING to someone is nothing

what a bunch of dramatics

I think it's the history of this team that continues to fan the flames. People remember when it comes to big name free agents, the Redskins always lead the pack.

He's considered one of the top defensive tackles available. He was "cut" by the Cleveland Browns this week. Some fans have a difficult time believing teams cut their top players.

This post from a poster at Washington Post caught my eye: Responding to Redskin Insider: Shaun Rogers meets with Redskins, signing is not imminent.

If this team gives a 32 year-old NT with a history of injuries, questionable work ethic, and off-field issues a contract worth $5 million/yr and let their most productive WR (and damn near ONLY playmaker) walk away coming off a career season when the same price could keep him in burgundy and gold, then it's gonna be awfully hard to sell anyone the notion that the Redskins are in better hands now than they were before...[UNQUOTE/

Whether their intention is to sign him or not, it's the above mind-set that has been adopted when it comes to the Redskins and free agents.

This is still the new regime. McNabb is a flop so far but, his contract allowed for the possibility of such a thing. Yes, the draft picks hurt but, if McNabb did it up, it would've been worth it. Old regime's Haynesworth doesn't want to play and Shanahan wasn't afraid to bench him too. I think we'll see an incentive laden contract that won't pay him a ton of money and he won't be around long either if that's the case. Relax, friends.

I guess that's why Rogers left town without a contract. Hopefully we are not in the "business as usual" mode of regimes past. Develop our own talent.
