Re: Redskins Free Agents List

Wondering if we end up with the guy from Carolina as DC, if we target Kawann Short and let Baker walk.

Cousins, Garçon, D Jax, Chris Baker, Vernon Davis, Junior Gallette, Duke Ihenache, K Golston, John Sullivan, Greg Toler, Terrence Garvin and can't forget our long snapper Nick Sundberg.

Who you bringing back?

I'm going with

Cousins 23.0 per year 5 year deal
Chris Baker 8.5-9.5 3 year deal
Garçon 7.0-8.0 3 year deal
Nick Sundberg 1 3 year deal
Vernon Davis 2.5 1 year deal
Junior Gallette 1.5 prove it 1 year
Duke Nachos 1.5 1 year

I'd probably look into bringing Center J Sullivan into camp for depth.

No way am I giving Chris Baker almost 10 million a year.

That might be a little high, but the guy has been one of the top dt in the league the last couple years. 7 million per year would be a great value.

I'd consider Poe for sure at dt...him or Bennie Logan would be a great free agent gets at that position.

That is a bit of a stretch, he has been above average to me

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

If Junior is healthy and plays well, he is short term help. He becomes a free agent that gets $$$$$ even though he is in his 30s.

They must draft D line because of the need and the money saved.

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

This is my feeling exactly. I feel like we put our Dline's hopes on Gallette's health 2 years in a row and got burned both times.

Achilles is a tough injury, he may never play again for all we know

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

It will very likely be a vet min contract, if he can't play you cut him at virtually no cost. There is not a better risk/reward move to be made

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

I wish Cousins had the same attitude as Junior. But he has to worry about the poor QB'S that he doesn't know and will play for different teams. I have to take 26 million because the qbs after me can't live off 20 million. Still can't believe he said that dumb shit. I hate it, and I do hold it against him. He is perfect for living in DC with the rest of the BSers.

Chris Baker does not get resigned for that kind of money. He is worth 5 to 6 max. Gallette will probably still take 4 to .

Yeah if Baker wants 10/mil a year I'd let him walk. He's a good player and deserves a solid contract, but he's not 10/mil a year good.

yeah I think my initial 8.5-9.5 million is probably off...a little high. But I certainly think 7-7.5 per year on a 3 year contract is good value. Locker room - team leader type who has worked hard and every year has gotten better. I think he certainly has at least 2 more years of solid play left. If we handed him a 3 year 22-23 million contract, that would solidify a DT/DE position along a D-Line which was quite frankly bottom 5 in the league. Baker was really the only playmaker on the line. Ricky Jean, Ziggy are decent rotation DE-types, but are not starters.

To me, its gonna be hard to let the only real starter leave. We are then talking 3 new starters on the Dline alone. And don't give me Ionnadis or Lanier...they clearly arent starters yet.

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

I'm not over paying for Baker either. But a solid 3yr 22/23 mil type of contract with a decent signing bonus of say 2mil would be max.

Of the guys we have Hood and RJ are the best of the bunch.

Questions remain with no DC in house, and which d will we run 4-3 or 3-4 I think we were in a nickel look 65-70% of the time. We did find some success with our NASCAR type package with Murphy and RK on the outside and Baker and Smith on the inside, but that isn't a big enough group for 3 downs and stopping the run.

Re: Redskins Free Agents List

Baker / Cousins / Garçon 100%

If Doctson doesn't get healthy... losing Djax or Garçon is huge. Without them we have a Phillip Rivers situation. All that pocket presence and nobody to really target. You need playmakers. Djax makes plays. Not lobbying to keep him but you will notice he's gone if we don't replace him with another playmaker.
