Redskins Resign Jamaal Brown

[12thMan]

Per GP: Just got off the phone with Jammal Brown. Says even though he still feels more comfortable at LT, he re-signed to stay on the right side.

...says playing for Mike Shanahan was main sticking point: "I like playing for a coach who's won a Super Bowl."

....said he wanted to come back to the #Redskins to work with two fellow Oklahoma products now: Trent Williams and Chris Chester.

Brown's health: "I feel good. I’ve been working out. Can’t wait to get on the field. Hip feels good. I want to play football."

I think we will probably draft another RT in the second to third round in a year or two.

That makes too much sense.

I'd love to see Harris here as a backup. Talk about better depth than Stephon Heyer, even though Harris is more injury prone. And I'm glad Brown resigned here. He may not be a long term solution, but we need a short term solution until we get our long term solution. And he can be that. He definitely got better here at the end of the year, I'm excited to see what he can do this season.

Anyone know the $numbers$?

Good. Didn't care if we kept him or signed Harris. Now if we got neither I woulda been pissed.

I gotta feeling with might get both. You can mos def see a change in the market since the frenetic pace of the first several days. Harris, from what ive seen but more from what i read, is not that great. Being he is a system fit and a Shanny pick leads me to believe, for the right price, Harris could be in here as a valuable back up. Even though J.B. is supposidly ready to go, that hip kept him out for awhile and when he played still hurt at the beginning of last year, he was largely ineffective. Id say we still in the market looking for some back up help, Harris would be nice addition.

Harris won't come here now because like most NFL players, if they were a starter on one team, the expect to start on another. He's too young to just say "Yeah I want to be a backup, even though I was starting for the Broncos." But if he does come here than GREAT! He's way better than Stephon Heyer on a good day.

Good signing that brings continuity to the o-line. We need to sign a backup, one not named Stephon Heyer.

This. The biggest thing for me is continuity, constant reshuffling makes the line suck, at least they won't suck as hard as they have in years past. And while we're on O-line, I would love to pick up another G/C, someone who can push to start -- Beck is going to need a lot of help

denver already said they won't be bringing harris back, so he's still out there.

[rbanerjee23]

Didn't Shanny draft Ryan Harris specifically for his scheme? If the guy wasn't as expensive as he probably will be, I would totally support trying to get him.

Cutting Rabach was good but having Will Montgomery or Liechtensteiger replace him, not so much -- I am still holding out hope that we can get a decent C in the FA market though I doubt that will happen.

not much left at OG that's of reasonable age. joseph, blalock, lutui, mathis, etc already out and it wasn't strong to start with... lots of really old OL sitting around about to be force retired though.

I also saw slightly more than $8 mil guaranteed.
