Dockery coming back to Redskins

steveo395 · 02-27-2009, 10:08 PM

Great signing. Now if we can get a top tackle in the draft to (hopefully) beat out Jansen and maybe a center in the 3rd, our offense should be much improved.

This is huge. I remember his last season with us... and he did open up monster holes for the backs. Loving this offseason so far. Upgrading both lines and getting younger. Gives us some flexibility with the draft pick, too. If Orakpo is gone, I'd like to get a LB'er.

... if Lifetime made movies for men big Dock's story a la the Redskins would get a two-hour special LOL.

Seriously, this is fanfriggentastic. Welcome home DD...

The little guaranteed money and the chemistry he quickly made with Chris Samuels makes this a great deal for the Redskins. Now for the other side of the Line.

I am so proud of the Redskins so far. Addressing two of our biggest needs on the DL and OL is damn good. Danny Boy and Vinny Boy are starting to suprise me so far. They are doing a good job at getting team needs.
Like someone else said, our chances of winning the Super Bowl are looking better and better each minute. If we add Ray Willis via FA or Andre Smith in the draft, this off season will be a good one. Maybe a Darren Sproles type running back later in the draft but thats a different story

You know how Smoot's reception was when he came back to the Skins. It will be the same for Dock because none of the Skins fans wanted to let him go.

The aircraft carrier is back! This is great news. Remember that one particular Xmas morning where the presents just kept coming and after a while you just expected more? This is starting to feel like that.

Gotta love being champions of the offseason.

This is way better then other offseasons though... we are getting guys in their prime or near it. Let hope this translates to Chapions in the Season too...

Hamoskinz · 02-27-2009, 10:37 PM

Started off the day feeling nervous about the large contracts for Haynesworth & Hall though they are good players but now I am beginning to feel 'irie' with Dockery signing that we are heading in the right way in replacing are old vets. I hope we don't sign Chris Canty... too much good news for me to handle in a day

Yeah. I'm kinda spinning right now. We're making some good moves.

I'm happy we got Dock, and I do hope we can get Willis, he can add depth to the tackle position. I wonder what direction the team will take now that we have added free agents to both lines...do we go for a stud offensive lineman or a linebacker at #13?

Good question. I think that we should go for a LB in James Laurinaitis or get a DE/LB in Brian Orakpo. We could use someone to upgrade the position that was left vacant when we cut Marcus Washington and we could also use another DE to take to spot of Demetric Evans as a backup DE. I wouldn't mind going OL and get Andre Smith either. We're sitting in a real good position as far as the draft goes. It'll be interesting to see what the FO does. It feels so good to be able to draft on wants instead of needs since we already filled MOST of our needs via free agency.

What about taking a look a jeff saturday? I think it would be an upgrade over raybach?
