Redskins pick up Haha Clinton-Dix

[deanpet21]

GK may be on to something here... From Packers GM regarding trading both Clinton-Dix & Montgomery:
“You take everything into consideration when you make these kind of decisions, but performance comes first. That’s always the major factor in these decisions,” Gutekunst said Wednesday.

Clinton-Dix has regressed into an inconsistent, occasionally unpredictable player since making the Pro Bowl in 2016. Montgomery has operated as the team’s third running back and primary kick returner but made several critical mistakes late in last Sunday’s loss to the Los Angeles Rams, including a lost fumble on an ill-advised kick return.

So, what type of player are we really getting here for our 4th pick? I'm not so sure and will be watching him closely on Sunday.

From what I read Dix is having a good season. So I don't know where that is coming from.

Maybe I should have said FA sucks for what the Skins need.

No QBs will be available eh. That sucks.

i think its unfair to claim that anyone "fell into our laps " the FO did its due dilligence and reacted when players became available. they drafted well

now does BA get credit for any of this? NO

but i also think doug williams and his staff are doing good things . he called AD , got him to work out , and signed him . most people thought he was done that is due diligence and work not luck

but the litany of debacles from RG3 to KC cannot be overlooked however

If you think the FO did all that. It seems very unlikely Allen didn't have a hand in any of it.

you are right , oh my god i said that , dix is the 2nd highest rated safety in the NFL behind DJ so Dix is having a good season

now the packers GM said he wanted to be very active in FA so he let dix walk

I do see how people on there think this is a bad move. We are getting at least 2 comp picks next year one being a 3rd rounder. So even if he is a one year rental he makes the defense better.

The article plainly states its coming from the Packers GM, Brian Gutekunst.

Who cares. Dix is an upgrade over Nicholson.

Well than say outright you don't give a shit what the Packers GM or anyone else says. Don't clutch your pearls and purse before you pass out on your fainting couch. Overcome that someone said Dix is playing like shit

But he is not playing like shit. that's the point. What do you think the Packers Gm is going to say? I gave up a Pro Bowl safety in his prime for a 4th round pick. lol

One rolled ankle or pulled hamstring away from having Everett back there full time with Ladler on deck.

If that's the point and the article clearly sated who said what. Than WTF did you pose that silly ass question for?

No doubt Captain Obvious which is why some people are asking. Why did the Packers give up a top rated safety for a 4th rd pk.
