Asante Samuel or Nate Clements???

[GTripp0012]

Clements is better than Smoot.

Samuel may be the best of them, but it seems like Clements wants to be here, IMO.

[That Guy]

clements is by far the most likely (knows system, better player, not really tied to buffalo). either one would be fine with me and a good move though. if smoot's cheap, bring him back as our #3 , but that's probably not happening.

[mooby]

The Vikes are probably gonna release Smoot. He was quoted in an article a couple weeks ago about how they might as well release him if they plan on making him the #3 corner, because he doesn't want to be the #3 corner until the end of his career.

[Redskinhog1963]

like i said,go after both of them!

[freddyg12]

Mark Maske said today online that he thought the Skins wouldn't have a big FA year, but would go after a cb in free agency. Before he's said that he thought it would be Clements.

[Sheriff Gonna Getcha]

If either one wants a $20 million signing bonus (allegedly Clements is seeking as much), I'd prefer to skip both. Neither one deserves to get a bigger bonus than Champ Bailey.

[Redskins_P]

If we could bring both in (Clements and Smoot), then moving Springs to Safety would make perfect sense. But I really doubt that will happen.

How about neither becasue both are going to command very large signing bonues. How about we trade down and perhaps get a DE and a corner. Let's face it fellow Redskins fans. The defense is not going to be fixed in one year. NO MORE HIGH PRICED FREE AGENTS.

I heard today that Samuel and NE are so far apart on $ that they are just going to franchise him. So he's getting his raise. But it looks like he's probably staying in NE.

there's a difference between high priced and overpaid. just cause dan spends a lot of money on players doesn't make them good. no one's b***hing about marcus washington, and he's making a ton.

I could be wrong but Washington signed something like 24 mil over 5 years. That's fair if you ask me. I saw on Sports Center that Samuel wants Champ Bailey $. 18 mil bonus. F- that!

What we need to do is go out and get a 2nd tier guy, perhaps Smoot if he is cut and hope that the rest of the guys can play better. With the 6th pick take the best player on the board. If Branch is the guy then draft him. But honestly some of the problems can be fixed by guys staying healthy, like Springs, and some playing better, like Taylor.

yeah it is fair, but you know why? cause he's playing up to it. if archuleta had 16 sacks, we wouldn't be complaining about him either.

and springs has a history of injury problems... it's just part of the deal, so you've got to have a better backup plan than crossed fingers :/.

it he worth champ bailey money? probably not, but with the huge increase in the cap, all prices are up, beyond the normal annual rate. If he gives you 12 picks a year and gives up less than 4 big plays, he'd totally be worth it, but that's very hard to predict. I'd guess he won't, since that's obviously not likely, but we're not going to be able to draft or sign anyone better as far as immediately fixing the secondary than a clements or samuels.

Do you honestly think NE is going to let Samuel walk and not get anything in return? Your talking about the best FO in the NFL. It's not going to happen. He's not coming here.

[AlvinWalton'sNeckBrace]

In Today's NFL, its not that big of a deal to go from worst to first...and I'm starting to think bringing back Ol' Smooty would bring back some of the swagger. That's assuming we keep Springs at CB. If that's the case though, we're still going to need a Safety that can cover
