Re: Official Redskins Free Agency Thread 2013 Part II

I have been waiting for an extension for Wilson honestly. Free up a couple of bucks and bring JW back for 2-3 years

I don't see that. Our secondary needs safeties. We get a couple of good safeties, and the play of both hall and wilson should be noticibly better. Adding Orakpo and Carricker back into the front seven should increase the pressure on the QB which in turn will increase both Hall and Wilson's ability to make plays. When the QB and WR has 5+ seconds to make a play it become difficult for any CB to be able to be successful.

This, and assuming BM or Tanard Jackson comes back (healthy, etc.) we only need one more starting caliber safety to improve the secondary a good bit. Cornerback is the 3rd biggest need (and probably tied with two other positions) behind safety and right tackle.

I don't see RT as a need since we got Pashos.

I agree that one good safety will improve the secondary dramatically. Just having Meriweather back will help.

As for corner, meh, not too worried. If we get Winfield, great, if not we can get a good corner in the draft, even if not an immediate starter.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with the current team. After all, we did win the division last year, and IMO, we're already improved; signing Pashos, Biggers, getting several key players back from injury, having RG3 and Morris a year older and more experienced. Once the draft is over and we have another good group of rookies, I can see us making a run to the NFC Championship.

This is sarcasm, right?

Re: Official Redskins Free Agency Thread 2013 Part II

Coming off a pretty serious injury I'm not sure we can count on Pashos for much of anything until we get a good look at him on the field. I would guess the front office feels the same way otherwise why did we re-sign Polumbus along with bringing in Trueblood?

Now Trueblood, there's someone to be sarcastic about. I don't get the point of signing him, unless it's just for competition in camp and preseason.

Trueblood has had a much better career than Pashos.

Re: Official Redskins Free Agency Thread 2013 Part II

Pat Kirwan called Trueblood and Pashos, along with Polumbo three versions of the same guy. He called them all "Turn Styles". I like Kirwan, he seems to know allot about talent. Last year he said we would regret having Madieu playing saftey and he was right. He also said E.J. Biggers was not going to help us, or be a good player. This one I hope he is wrong about.

I like Kirwan a lot too, really hope he is wrong, But I think he's right more often than not...

It doesn't take a genius to see at RT we basically just have a bunch of guys. Let's hope Compton turns into something worthwhile.

Re: Official Redskins Free Agency Thread 2013 Part II

I have been wondering why the Redskins have not shown any interest in Kerry Rhodes.
