of course not, he's borderline horrible. guy can run block ok. thats it.


So lets gets this straight....We've signed 3 vetern Tackles, bringing back Hurt and a rookie who Shanny wanted in Compton last year for competition at the Tackle spot....meanwhile no signings of vetern secondary players. So that means we are happy with the weakest part of the team last year...?

Signings aren't made in order of priority.

There were two weak parts to the team last year, Secondary and RT. Bad secondary gives up TD's. Bad RT gives up injuries to RG3. A bad secondary can be fixed with cap space back next year. RG3 can only be fixed so many times by Dr Andrews.

Im all for going after RT.

Btw, what veteran CB was signing for what we got the three tackles at? Its not like we have 30 mil wrapped in cap space this year for the RT's.

The sameone we could bring back D Hall for.

We can easily clear enough cap space to sign anyone at what we paid for those tackles. So if Hall is willing to take that little, he will be a Redskin next year. Contrary to popular belief, signing Pashos or Youngblood was not the reason Hall was cut.

IMO we know who we want in the defensive backfield. We're just waiting for the market to settle. With each passing day, the Winfields, Halls, etc., of the world get cheaper to sign.

Worst RT in the NFL, they say. Dayyum.

[ArtMonkDrillz]

This is probably a really dumb question so if they answer is as simple as "No, they can't do that" that's good enough for me, but could the Skins sign a FA to a 'back-loaded' deal that keeps them under the cap for this year but pushes guaranteed money into next season?

I'd have to assume not but I just figured I'd ask.

Yes, they definitely can.

Well yeah, but it seems if we were going to bring back Tyler, especially on a 2 year deal, it would have been done sooner. Is Compton not ready to back him up?
