They need to give Fletcher his contract. Regardless of his age, look at what he's meant to not only the defense, but to the Redskins team in general. They should give him whatever he's asking for.

even if its $100mill?

no, they should be reasonable and let a 37 year old walk if he tries to hold them hostage. what has he meant to the redskins? 5-11? another top 5 pick? I'm all for keeping him, but not at any cost. Our D had issues covering people, and he wasn't stellar in that regard either.

Of course not. Nobody is worth $100 million dollars and I doubt if Fletcher is asking for that much. Fletcher may want a long term deal. The Redskins might want to give him something short term. Fletcher may want something in the range of $35 million dollars over five seasons. The Redskins may want to give him something the range of $9 million dollars over two years. But I'm just speculating here. They may be closer to a deal than we think.

He's wanting 3y/24mil. The Skins have put a 3yr/18mil contract up. It's not like the SKins are low balling him. IN fact, he'll never get 3yr/18mil on the open market.

No shit, I hope the arbitrator favors the skins and cowboys and get this resolved.

F that. He is being a bit ridiculous, especially when you take into account age and the going rate on MLB's. He needs to be a bit more reasonable, and quit asking for 8-9 mil a year. Bring it down to 5-6, and we would still be overpaying for him.
