What deal struck in the first day or two of free agency ever worked out? I gotta think the hit rate (getting the right value for the money) is like 10%. You do much better on the late March pickups.

Thinking about it today....what big time FA deal has ever worked out? By big time I mean fire up the jets and load up a dump truck with money type deal. I literally couldn't think of one. The guys who sign those deals basically can't even hope to play up to them much less outplay them like a team is hoping for.

The Haynesworth deal will forever burn bright in the bowels of my soul......

Will Blackmon made some big time plays last year. When he stripped the Dallas RB on the 1 or 2 yard line to save a sure TD...that was flat out brilliant.

He wasn't terrible in coverage- not great, but not terrible. I would like to see him back.

Colt McCoy signs a 3 year deal with the Redskins... 1 year is voidable

JoeRedskin · 03-09-2016, 06:58 AM

Saw something on twitter that McCoy was staying with the Skins but haven't seen any confirmation from any of the standard sources.

Colt McCoy stays in Washington | ProFootballTalk

Now we need to pick up a couple UDFA QBs and let them throw in training camp and we are all set at this position.

Found this on another board.

Redskins deal with Kedric Golston, $1.005 million, $985,000 salary, $20,000 first game roster bonus, up to $60K playtime incentives

Getting Niles Paul back will be like a FA signing. Just say'n

Ruhskins · 03-09-2016, 10:01 AM

Mason Foster is back:

I don't know if 06 Drew Brees was "fire up the jets" style big (considering he was coming off the shoulder injury) but I think the contract was considered big for its' day.

Good news!
Maybe a possible starter at ILB????

TheMalcolmConnection · 03-09-2016, 10:11 AM

Good to hear about Mason Foster.

Also reading that Tress Way was extended a one year tender. Probably someone we should lock up long-term too eh?

KI Skins Fan · 03-09-2016, 10:24 AM

I heartily approve of every transaction done by the Skins so far this off-season. What a difference it is to have a real GM now!

I am relieved to have Colt McCoy back in the fold. I think he is the perfect backup QB for us. Now, we pick up a developmental QB in the draft or as an UDFA and we're set at that position.
