Signing a 32 year old, that was out of football last year, eeehh, that doesn't sound promising! On a positive note per Wikipedia he is a republican, I like that.

With all of these players restructuring & signing new deals I think it says a lot about Hall & his release.

Pulling for Moss to get the deal done.

I really think that the Redskins want Hall back, but his contract was way too much. Either way, now they will need to sign a free agent veteran cornerback.

pashos is a good flyer signing. I really want davis back though, or his TE equivalent.

That's interesting because that conflicts with several comments from Mara and Goodell.

As a long time (sometimes over zealos) critic of Shanny, I'll take his word over Mara and Goodell's any day of the week and twice on Sunday. But what's done is done.

I think the FO is managing our situation damned well, assuming RT and FS performance improve over last year.

I echo the first sentiment.

Secondly, I think they're already improved at RT over last year, assuming you mean marginally improved. Whether or not they re-sign Polumbus as the backup or just give the swing man role to Maurice Hurt, the idea is that Tom Compton is going to have to win the job at RT.

I don't agree with skimping at the right tackle position, but knowing that our lack of resources are going to create a deficiency in at least one area of the team because of limited salary cap space and draft picks, I understand a Tony Pashos/Tom Compton camp battle to be a starting tackle (loser misses the roster).

It's just imperative now that we take our two day 2 draft picks and enough salary cap space to sign about two quality free agents, and fill the three remaining holes (TE, CB, S). To be honest though, if Davis re-signs, they should be able to address all three in free agency, and in position to just draft the best player available.

[CRedskinsRule]

Well that really should end any hope of getting cap space back, time to put it behind (regardless of Allen's throwaway ending about getting some back).

[12thMan]

Per Shanny, D.Hall has been released.

Shanahan: Redskins are not restructuring Santana Moss' deal at this time. They're talking to many players about restructuring.

Watching the presser right now.
Shanahan just said we are one million under the cap.

Enough to sign OT Ryan Harris tomorrow?

That's what I'd like to see.

Didn't we have a kid in pre-season that could have went in the 2nd round but we signed undrafted because of injury? He was a CB, I think Minnifield was his name? Is he under contract still?
Maybe he can fill the void from D. Hall?
