Re: Skins expected to sign Brown on Wed.
Not a bad idea if he comes cheap. His potential outweighs his past injury problems. As long as we're not expecting him to come in and be an every down starter.

Re: Skins expected to sign Brown on Wed.
This makes me nervous. When they intend to sign someone before they leave for other visits it probably means they're going to overpay. I mean if you get an offer you think is good enough to not even ask anyone else for I would think it means you've been overpayed. I like a multiyear deal for him but onyl a short one at a value. This does not sound like what is planned.

Re: Skins expected to sign Brown on Wed.
I'm liking the idea of taking a chance on him. Like I said before, I think it will pay dividends, especially if we are constantly rotating people in and out.

Re: Skins expected to sign Brown on Wed.
We took a chance on an injury-prone Daryl Gardener and it worked out for us, if only for a year. This guy has a much better attitude.

Re: Skins expected to sign Brown on Wed.
I agree CRT3, that players should be consulted about incoming players if AND ONLY IF they have previously played with that player. LaVar thinks he should have personel decesions which is laughable. Asking him about Brown I'm fine with because he played with him, and they made each other look better, however someone he doesn't know. Stick to that.
GMs stick to scouting. Coaches stick to coaching. Players stick to playing. --That's how it should be! |

Should he stick to playing or should he be involved with the playcalling?

Re: Skins expected to sign Brown on Wed.
When did LaVar say he wanted a say in personnel decisions, and what sort of context was it in??
I see people mentioning it from time to time, I've just never seen it or heard it for myself. |

Re: Skins expected to sign Brown on Wed.
Coaches should listen to players and take their ideas into heart, I don't expect them to make the game plan, but if a player comes up and tells the coach what he thinks will work, why not give it a shot? He sees how a guy is playing him, he knows what moves are getting him open. Why not listen to the players and help exploit another team's weakness? There's a lot more to coaching than playcalling - gameplanning, motivation, techniques, etc.

Re: Skins expected to sign Brown on Wed.
I have a simple question that I bet everyone knows the answer to. What happened on the first play that Clinton Portis touched the ball in a regular season game as a Redskin?
Answer. 56 Yard TD run. Q. Who suggested running that play? A. Clinton Portis. Shut up about Gibb's not taking players ideas into consideration! |

Re: Skins expected to sign Brown on Wed.
Rush must have been high when he picked out that tie!
