Alex Smith traded to Skins

[skinz2winz]

You've convinced me

As did your silly response. Fair enough!

 

[ehb5]

I didn't realize we were able to do any trades at this time, I didn't think the trade period started until March. So, how official is everything? When does Smith new contract start or can it be delayed enough for us to tag and trade Kirk? If he walks and we get nothing, this is just embarrassing as hell. Signing Smith to a new contract was not necessary until after we dealt with tagging and trading Kirk. I'll wait until more details come out before I make final judgement. But the front office sure likes to make it hard for fans that do not live in the DC area to have a real reason to continue to support them.

It's technically unofficial until March but it's effectively a done deal.

We had to rush to do it because other teams were trying to trade for smith. Of course we should have just let them and not tried to get involved but that just wouldn't be the Redskins way.

BS!

Best young slot corner in the game is hilarious. Half the teams have one. Eagles had Boykin the best young slot corner in the game, got rid if him, and eventually signed the actual best slot corner in the game.

Here's how our slot WR did against you guys this year.
6-86-1
4-45-1

Here's how your slot WR did against us.
3-14-0
2-28-0

Both had 13 targets.

That dude is off his rocker. To put it nicely.

[eaglesnut]

Would've been nice to keep Fuller. I think he's gonna be a baller.

Looks like it saved you from giving up a much more valuable pick.

See what Moreau's got. Kid can run.

You realize this isnt just me saying this right? He graded as the top slot corner by 2 different ranking metrics last season. Even if you dont think hes the best hes a 22 year old very good corner beloved by coaching staff and teammates. You dont give that up (plus a 3rd rounder) to downgrade and get older at QB and commit to mediocrity rather than a shot at a SB.

You know how I know you are retarded? Because you keep calling Alex Smith a downgrade when Kirk Cousins was already gone.

17m is cheap for a good QB.

What a shock. The eagles fan is classless.

Cousins to smith is a downgrade plain and simple.

Even if Cousins would have left, this trade for Smith is bad.

Ok I tried to right that simply for you but something tells me you just wont be able to wrap your little head around it still.

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

That a good deal for Alex wow

 

[Rex Racer]

Washington Redskins, Supberbowl 53 Champions

Only if they play the SB in week one.

 

[Breed]

Looks like it saved you from giving up a much more valuable pick.

See what Moreau's got. Kid can run.

Yeah, Fabian has some skills. Still not sure what to make of the deal. Smith only has 1 year left on his contract. We may be in the same boat as we were this year with Cuz.

 

[j_y19]

No, Smith has agreed to a 4 year extension ($70+M guaranteed) with us starting in 2019. So we have 5 years to pay for this mistake.

 

[Kevin12773]

Much ado about nothing.
7-9 with Cousins
7-9 with Smith

 

[gkekoa]

Lol this board would probably throw a fit but that wouldve been a million times better of a plan

Hell...even I would have been happier about that.

I can’t beleieve we gave Fuller away.

 

[Sharkinva]

And this right her gents, is why I think Bruce isnt done with this

Barnwell: Winners, losers and fallout from the Alex Smith trade

Instead, with Smith likely occupying $20 million in cap room, Washington will let Cousins hit unrestricted free agency this March. They would be in line to receive a third-round compensatory pick in the 2019 draft, but that will happen only if Snyder sits out free agency and doesn't sign any players who will cancel out the Cousins comp pick. Doing that would require levels of patience and forward thinking this organization simply hasn't shown.

We will get that third regardless unless you believe we are going to sign a guy for 100 million guaranteed at 25 mil a season in FA.

We dont need to sign one player for that amount. While they have never released the formula used to figure out FA gains vs loses. Player impact is also a factor.

Basically even if Kirk gets paid, a 3rd is the BEST we will get, but it could come in at less depending on how we handle FA.

Oh I know what is written. Can you show me a player more impactful than KC? I expect to get a fifth for Breeland too.
