I'd like to see Lich come back and I wanna see what Hall looks like before we let him go too. Right though, will have the capability to be major players.

 

[Sharkinva]

OK, so we cut 3/5 of the line, and the only healthy RT we have is a FA. We also cut two CBs, and two DL men. We have almost $40 million in cap space and we do this....

 

[countryroads316]

we don't have to make a huge splash signing players like Suh here are guys I would go after making our picks best available instead of reaching and drafting for need
1.Bulaga
2.Iupati
3.Brandon Spikes
4.Louis Delmas

I'm certainly not paying Bowen 5.5. Cofield can go too. If it's not his hand it's his ankle and we were pretty good against the run without him. Porter can go. How many games did he even play this year? Lol. Chester's 4 million can go toward getting a safety in here. Replace him with a guy like Matias from Florida St. in the top of the 2nd for 900K.

 

[Sharkinva]

You seriously think, with $40 million in cap space, we will show restraint in free agency?? I can see cutting Chester. Maybe even Bowen. But if we cut Bowen and Coefield... there is no name other than Suh that Snyder would want.

 

[kbso83432]

If they re-sign Trent and bring his cap number from 13 to about 8, that's another 5. I don't trust Allen or Dan with that kind of money, but I would be interested to see what A.J. would do.

 

[kbso83432]

I don't see Suh coming here anyway. Don't see him wanting to play in a 34.

 

[Sharkinva]

You guys seriously trust Dan Snyder with $35-40 million in cap space, a puppet GM and a coach who has zero pull to not go into full on Madden mode??

 

[kbso83432]

Who do want Shark?

If we sign those offensive lineman maybe Leonard Williams Falls to us maybe Randy Gregory got us another pass rush OLB hell maybe we decide to draft Scherff put him beside either Trent Williams or Bryan Bulaga our new Hogs

Williams,Scherff,Licht,Iupati,Bulaga


or we just trade down fleecing a team for draft picks

 

[kbso83432]

Flowers, Iupati, and McCourty are at the top of my list. Need to find an inside LB that can stay with a TE in coverage. Bargains like Boling from Cincinnati or Moore from Denver interest me too. Don't know if they even want a corner or if they are still stuck on Amerson. But if they do go that route and miss out on Flowers, I'd make a hard push for Maxwell from Seattle.

 

[Sharkinva]

Who do want Shark?

Honestly, I havent made a list. Simply for the reason that i am waiting to see how badly they screw up the DC search first. What I fully expect is, we will be players in FA, by week one of the preseason Dan Snyder will have again won off the field and cranked out false hope.

 

[kbso83432]

I see.

 

[Darrell Green Fan]

I think it's awesome that we have so many crappy players that can be cut without feeling any loss. So blessed to be a Redskins fan in the off season.

 

[j_y19]

Its a great thing to be able to free up so much cash to acquire more crappy players. Dan should claim the Redskins as a charitable organization with as much money as he gives away. Wonder what 30+ injured player that contributes little we will pay big bucks to this year?

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

This is the year we need to buy some studs if we can get them this I hate to say has to be a synder and cerreto year we have to turn this around we can not go and pick up second and third rate free agents this year.

In other words repeat the exact same mistakes the team has been making for the previous 20 years. Awesome

Just stop there is nothing wrong getting 1 or 2 or 3 studs. Christ o mighty for example nt dan williams og iupita wr larry fritz what we did in the past is trade picks plus get 5 to 6 studs

 

[kbso83432]

We went the modest route this year and look where it got us. Lauvao, McGlynn, Clark, Hatcher, Roberts, Porter and Jackson doesn't count. He fell into their laps. The one high profile guy they got was the only one who performed. Get some guys who are in their 20's that can flat out ball! Dan used to sign guys that were once good but came here looking for a nest egg on their way out of the league. Bruce tried to get cute last Spring and signed a bunch of bums. Bruce should have been fired for that free agency class alone, never mind the fact that Moses, and Long can't get on the field. I'm with you. Nothing wrong with getting some big FA'S in here as long as they are still in their 20's and don't have a history of injuries.
