Redskins sign DE Stephen Bowen

[Ruhskins]

I'm just curious to know what does this mean for Carriker. Honestly to me, Cofield is not a nose tackle. I would put Cofield and Bowen at DEs, but does this mean that Carriker is no longer a starter?

We have Joe Joseph NT on our roster as well, he caught a DUI last season that's why we know nothing about him.

Bryant play very well at NT at the end of the season, I would keep him at NT with Neild. I would be okay with a line consisting of Cofield, Bryant, and Bowen.

A few things have to be considered here. The team has cleared out alot of its aging talent: Daniels, Kemoeatu, Haynesworth. This made the DL depth pretty thin. I don't like the fact that they've seemingly overspent for to restore depth. That's why it's important to find talent later in the draft. This franchise hasn't done a good job at that so therefore are always forced to buy high and sell low. I like the Bowen pickup, not the cost. Maybe Bowen will stick since Carriker won't after this year.

I love how our fanbase on the internet knows so much more about the team than Bruce Allen and Mike Shanahan.


If only they'd lurk on the WP, we'd win the Super Bowl every year!

Doc Walker just said it best ... (to paraphrase): 'Anybody from the front seven of Dallas or the New York Giants, is probably better than yours. Their front lines are among the best in the NFL.'

Good way to put it. Those are teams that draft well on the d-lines.

And I thought bolstering the D-line would make people happy.

I can't wait to see the joy when we start signing some O-lineman.

We'll get calls for Chris Samuels to come back from retirement and to bring Rabach back. LOL.

I like the Cofield move but not sure about a career back up.

Would we have been better off caving in to C. Jenkins' last minute demands for even more $$?

I would have hate the seen the contract that Vinny would have thrown at him. The man bids against himself on players. Creates markets when there isn't any.
