yep, the same guy who got pissed when Danny Boy and Vinny gave D Hall a 50 million dollar contract after several games who is now a pro bowler and an integral part of the top defense in the league. Same guy we low balled.

He left of his own accord and no one knew he'd play that way in SF. Sh*t like this happens and people need to get over it. I'm sure people here would have been pissed if BA gave Rogers top CB money (which he wanted) after the pedestrian season he had here.

BA would not have given Rogers top money, but he should at least attempted to lock him up to something decent. From the way everything went down, we let him walk. Rogers was not a bad or average corner here, he got the bad press for dropping balls he should have caught, which is true. But he played good man to man and was an above average to good coverage CB. He complimented the risk taking, big play corner on the other side well.

I think those are fair points and I think the Redskins probably were more than willing to part with him. However, it is not like San Fran gave him more money than what we offered him, and I think that's the part that people don't understand.

We didn't low ball him. You apparently haven't listened to a single thing Smoot has said. Otherwise, you wouldn't be saying this crap.

if the FO wanted Carlos to be here, he would still be here. So we let a probowler walk, its no big deal.

Carlos became a pro bowler after he left the team. He was a good corner when he was here with us and had a pedestrian season during his contract year. Your argument would only be correct if:

A. Rogers had play at a Pro Bowl level the last season he was with the Skins (which he didn't)

B. Rogers had left for SF for more money (which he didn't)

C. Rogers had wanted to stay here with the Redskins (which he didn't either)

He wasn't a pro-bowler. Can you show me where he made the pro-bowl during his time with the Redskins?


I can show you ONE time that Carlos made the pro-bowl during a 1 year contract deal. Guess who else made the pro-bowl during contract years? Albert Haynesworth.


Again, you haven't listened to a damned thing Smoot has said regarding this. I guess sticking your fingers in your ears and going lalalalalalalalala works better for you.
