Re: WR Andre Roberts has agreed to deal with Redskins
I wouldn't sign Britt and count on him coming in to be a starter. I would however take a chance on him with a low risk/prove it type of deal and bring him to camp and let him earn a spot.

Re: WR Andre Roberts has agreed to deal with Redskins
Free agency is just getting started, just because we signed a WR out of the gate doesn't mean other positions are being ignored. Patience. Let's see how it all plays out.

Re: WR Andre Roberts has agreed to deal with Redskins
roberts is a solid signing. i doubt it's more than 3-4mill guaranteed, so it's low risk.

Re: WR Andre Roberts has agreed to deal with Redskins
and anyone that thinks garcon is getting cut next year is some kind of crazy. unless you're planning on lead-piping his knee or some such.

Re: WR Andre Roberts has agreed to deal with Redskins
Or understand how backloaded deals affect the cap.

Re: WR Andre Roberts has agreed to deal with Redskins
yeah, its more cap related than performance related. Gruden is a fan, if Garcon plays well, you can always iron out a backloaded deal.

He's a necessary part of this year's roster, so I'm not suggesting that Gruden can't wait to get Garcon out of town. I just think the offense is going to be Jordan Reed-centric because...well, obviously.

Re: WR Andre Roberts has agreed to deal with Redskins
His deal isn't a cap killer, nor is it a backloaded deal in the sense of skyrocketing cap charges. His base salary, dead cap and cap savings per year of his deal is :
Year 2012 $2,100,000 $13,100,000 ($8,400,000) 2013 $5,600,000 $8,800,000 ($615,625) 2014 $7,100,000 $6,600,000 $3,100,000 2015 $7,100,000 $4,400,000 $5,300,000 2016 $7,600,000 $2,200,000 $8,000,000 That's a consistent base salary, which indicates a team is looking to count on him, and not be forced into a decision based on outrageous base or cap numbers. |

Re: WR Andre Roberts has agreed to deal with Redskins

$5 MM AAV can get you a better receiver than Garcon on the open market in most years. Plus: they're going to draft someone from a loaded WR class who is going to need someone to get released from the rotation in order to get increased reps. It's a no brainer.

Garcon led the NFL in receptions this year, GTripp. Go spout your know-it-all bullshit somewhere else.
