I thought this was his 5th year?

Re: Redskins trade for Ha Ha Clinton-Dix

I ... I ... am stunned.

This is a solid move. Dix and DJS?? When was the last time we had a safety combo like that??

Seriously, Norman, Dix, DJS and Dunbar are a solid group. Maybe not legion of boom solid, but damn solid nonetheless.

Area 51. This is a fantastic pickup. Perfect timing too with Matty Ice coming to town.

Re: Redskins trade for Ha Ha Clinton-Dix

I think we should all take this time to sit and reflect on just how badly the Cowboys got fleeced on their trade. Seeing all these deals being made with top notch players for 3rd and 4th rounders. It warms my heart.

Vinny C was proud of that Cowboys move, classic bidding against themselves type of deal.

I can't wait for Cooper to see that he's gone from an overrated QB to a REALLY overrated QB.

Back to this move, it's hard not to like it. I was hoping Monte could really live up to the pre-season praise he got from Jay and others, but he hasn't yet. Not saying her won't, but this is an upgrade. And it seems a good deal.

As far as next year goes, this may be a short term rental -- per ESPN:

Clinton-Dix, 25, has been a starter since his rookie season in 2014, but he becomes an unrestricted free agent after this season. He was a first-round draft pick and made the Pro Bowl in 2016.... If [he] signs a big free agent contract this offseason, the Redskins will get a compensatory pick in 2020.

Who gets axed for this I wonder?

Very well could be short term rental situation, but ... it gives us options at the very least. And a compensatory pick should he sign elsewhere, which may be fine with us ... hoping Monte continues to improve, growing into that spot.

Can't be anything but pumped about this.

We're acting like a real, honest to goodness, pro football franchise. Feels weird, but good!

Re: Redskins trade for Ha Ha Clinton-Dix

Wow. Totally psyched.

And we just schooled Green Bay in a trade?!?

Whoever said Halloween Twilight Zone shit is dead on the money.


Let's go Skins! And F*** the Cowboys!
