Update: Redskins Add S Tanard Jackson and Madieu Williams and CB Leigh Torrence

This is already being discussed in another thread (multiple threads actually), but I know people will miss it and then complain that it was too easy to miss....

So here's a brand new thread so you won't miss it

*Sigh* Torrence.

I know SS said he's decent but I think he stinks. Hah, I mean I feel like he's like Doughty, good to fill in, just in case we have injuries or need him for special teams, but probably shouldn't EVER be starting.

Edit: Not that they were planning on him to start.

Okay, I just don't like the guy. I have a vendetta. At least I'm honest. >P

Torrence back for another round eh?

Looked him up, he's only 30? Seems like forever ago when he was here.

i like both, more cheap bodies, cream will rise to the top

DynamiteRave · 04-10-2012, 05:30 PM

Maybe this has been addressed in other threads, but...

Are they sitting on signing Fletcher back? or is there some other reason (cap space, etc etc) that they seem to be not trying to jump on this?

MTK · 04-10-2012, 05:31 PM

We're definitely going the Spurrier route of cheap and available guys.

I drank with Leigh Torrence's dad in the parking lot before the HOF game the year Monk and Green were inducted, so he always has a special place in my heart.

Ruhskins · 04-10-2012, 05:35 PM

BTW, I don't think they signed Leigh Torrence to be a starter. Just saying that for those that may be upset about this signing.

I'll welcome anyone to play with us, even if they suck. He was always a good dude so. Welcome back home.

Kendrick Golston resigned

Also, as you said, cap.

They are decent stopgaps for the 2012 season and will be replaced shortly thereafter.

skinsfaninok · 04-10-2012, 06:01 PM

Fletcher wants 6mil per for 3yrs and that is not a cap friendly # or realistic for a 37yr old lb. I heard the skins offered around 4mil. If the market settles & he doesn't get anybody too bite for his # then he'll be back, if not its better to let him go one yr early than too late.

Agree we are normally known for holding on to most aging players to long (I want Fletcher back but at the right price). A player his age & who plays his position normally signs 1yr deals.
