Amen, bro. Amen.

The only question is, is the guy a capable RT anymore? Why did Dallas let him go?

For the same reason we cut Randy Thomas. I believe he was set to make like $6-7MM, Dallas didn't feel he was worth that, and the lack of a salary cap allowed the team to release him without penalty.

That, and they have some promising young LT on the team already. Oh well, maybe their loss will be our gain. How awesome would it be if we signed all these cast-out NFC-East veterans and managed to go to the superbowl... in Dallas.

Sounds like a good scenario to me!

I'll copy over my post from the other thread

so we invest in him starting but he gets us too many flags, etc... he should've been suspended a couple of times last year.. with that rep running rampant last year there'll be increased pressure for Goodell to do it... and our luck it'll happen when he's with us instead of with the Boys

dude's too big, old, slow, etc for here.. not a good fit

Why have the Skins not resigned Levi Jones? I thought he did fairly well last year. I am happy with a lot of the deals the skins have made, but they really need to address this OL situation, and you don't want two rookies starting on the O-line this year. Yes, get Okung or Bulaga at #4 for LT, but sign an experienced guy to handle the RT position for sure... If they don't address this situation, we will have another 4-12 season.

^ Maybe we're waiting until after the draft to re-sign Levi. Or maybe he's waiting until after the draft to sign, since his MO is that he is a starting left tackle only.

tryfuhl · 04-07-2010, 02:54 PM

He should just retire if he wants to be a starting LT. It won't come until someone is dumb or desperate, like their guy goes down.

No Flozell...too old, too fat, too slow, too lazy.

Big C · 04-07-2010, 02:55 PM

id take him as a right tackle. anything to make this line better.

CrustyRedskin · 04-07-2010, 02:59 PM

This thread is insane, screw him id rather take a chance on a rookie or anyone else. Id rather us do it without ex cowboys, my aligence is to the burgundy and gold, i hate everything silver and blue, ar anything that has been associated with their franchise. And i live right in the heart of tx. These guys make me sick.

with that statement, you arent showing allegiance to the skins, but rather, just talking crazy. its absurd to not take good players because they used to play for the cowboys. if they make the redskins better, it doesnt matter.

CrustyRedskin · 04-07-2010, 03:10 PM

Ok then i dont want him for all his penalties and cheap shots.
