Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
That's pretty strong feeling.. Would you prefer for Redskins to try and outbid everyone just for the sake of having the supposedly best available players (even if they are not the best playmakers in the NFL)?

I'm actually pleased that Cooper saved us from ourselves, as I think he's a very good, but not great, WR and that he would be unlikely to be worth what we offered him over five years. And Hooper got lucky that none of the top-tier guys were FA this year. He was the best available and got overpaid. I had no interest in Ebron, who refuses to even try to block anyone. |

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
Just a thought, but it makes some sense to save some of this years cap, get the team on the right path, find out what they have with the current players and install the "culture" they want, and then roll over a chunk to next year when (hopefully) they might look like a far more attractive proposition and in a better position to compete by adding one or two high priced free agents.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
Being that we're three days (officially) into FA; I like the moves we've made so far.
Would like to see us add a TE (Tyler Eifert, Delanie Walker) or a CB (Logan Ryan, Pierre Desir, Breeland?) At WR, I know he's a headcase off the field and isn't a Rivera guy, but I would take a flyer on Anderson. *ONLY on a 1 year incentive based deal* |

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
We have done pretty much nothing to give Haskins more weapons other than add a backup level tight end. Yet if he struggles, there plenty of fans here ready to declare him a bust. Heck even Rivera refuses to acknowledge him as the starter. Yet there has been no real effort to give him anything better to work with. That is my concern.

I also think if we have space we don’t use, if we do want a deal with Schreff, why not front load it now and give us flexibility down the road?

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
Getting front loaded deals with their own guys is also a good way to go, I would have thought they would revisit Dunbars contract given how reluctant they were to pay the FA CBs

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
Like the G signing more than I did at 1st. Gives us a lot of swing versatility. I want Martin to win the starting LG position so the guy we just got can back up the interior guys.
Really like the LT signing. Big man good at pass protection. Obviously cool to have Fuller back. Really hope Sean Davis is our FS answer and we lock him up long term before the new league year starts. TE is a problem but still lots of time in FA and this little thing called the draft. And we'll have Chase Young in about a month.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
I'm sure they have a plan in place. I'm fine with not signing Cooper or Hooper. Let's leave it to the experts and hope they know what they're doing and right the ship we will see the plan start to unfold as the draft approaches and then happens

2. if the market is not there for Trent, A. revisit a short term extension with higher guaranteed money B. or just guarantee this year contract and bring him back. You could also trade him during the season as well.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
Wouldn't mind them bringing in B. Perriman and D. Walker, if RR thinks they would be a good fit, but I don't want them to just plug holes with anybody... So far I've been happy with the moves (and non-moves). It's still early, and they still have the draft.

Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
I would be fine also with a quiet under the radar FA period as long as the players we do acquire are serviceable at the very least. Depth, dependency, smart, flexibility- I read an article that was talking about how alot of the FA’s we bought in play multiple positions.
https://www.nbcsports.com/washington...ortant-quality Those are the little under the radar things that mean alot as a season wears on. Draft well. Rinse. Repeat. Look the team won three games last year but had a legit chance to win 7 others. I wonder what the new competent staff could have done in those 7 other games? |
