Comes across on TV as arrogant and condescending. He's like the fat version of Sean Salisbury.

Salisbury's actually pretty decent from the little I interacted with him.

Re: Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

a few people keep mentioning to me that we're going to get into cap hell w deals like jackson's.

remember when we had to restructure several deals each off season to get under the cap? did we restructure any in 2014?

Not yet.

It's not BA's style. He doesn't like to push $$ down the road if he doesn't have to.

I'd be surprised if we don't see some restructures in the next couple of months

They're wrong. On Jackson's deal specifically, it's a 3 year deal but only two years are a real commitment. We could cut him after year 2 and generate a lot of savings on the 3rd season. Or if he works out real well, keep him. The signing bonus was low, so there's not a lot of dead money risk.

As for the Redskins' long term cap situation, there's oodles of room there that will allow them to extend RG3, Orakpo, Trent, Kerrigan and Morris if they so choose.

Re: Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

Jay Gruden said on NFL Radio yesterday that the team is pretty much done in free agency.

Jay Gruden on DeSean Jackson: ‘Wow’

Is it time for a new poll grading the offseason and front office?

Yeah, I guess might as well. What's 4 more weeks, right?

Re: Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

Jackson posting pics with his shirt off on a beach, while his teammates are working out isn't the smartest thing to do. Especially after all the bad press he got. Just should've laid low but really not a big deal.

As far as Griffin goes, he just doesn't seem to understand that whatever he does it's going to cause a media firestorm. Especially after the team did so poorly. I know the guy works hard, but he just can't help himself when it comes to being a media whore. He just can't seem to leave it alone and be quiet.

I guess it a generation thing with these guys posting pics of themselves and doing all the social media stuff. I guess it's a way to connect with the fans. It's not just football players but a lot of people in entertainment. I just put myself in those shoes and would never ever do that stuff. I guess it's just a privacy thing.

Both topics get a super sized cup of 'eh' from me. Neither have a thing to do with whether or not we win games in the fall. Gives the talking heads something to flap their lips about but really they are completely irrelevant.
