Should the Redskins Re-sign Spencer Long at Center?

i say yes because it will piss dean off :D

but seriously Long did well for us at center and roullier played his soph and JR seasons at left guard . perhaps we could start roullier at LG and long at C and we might not have to spend a high draft choice on a plug and play LG

Of course we should. We probably won’t because we are too stupid to sign and play our own. We would rather use somebody else’s cast off in Alex Smith.

If you can get him for 2-3M/year or less, then it's an easy yes. Particularly if his deal includes injuyr protection for the team, like per game roster bonuses, etc.

If he wants any more than 3M/year, I let him see what he can find on the FA market b/c he probably won't like what he finds and the Skins offer will look a lot better.

He will find a job for at least 4mil per season.

lol. didn't someone on here predict he will get just as much or even more than Moses? Depends on what we do in FA. Cheap deal seems likely.

Only 13 centers in the league make 4M or more. If those are his demands, I think the Skins should stick with Rouiller and draft a player. I might pay him 3 and change with the right injury protections.

Technically, there are 14 already under contract in 2018 at 4 mil plus averages. There are a number of others on their rookie contracts. Just like QBs, other positions have salary increases as well. Long should be in this discussion. Long will likely have guarantees protecting him, not the other way around.

I said Long would get a good sized contract...pre-injury. 7 mil would not have been surprising.

Yes.

Will they?

No. would be a wise decision that the skins front office is incapable of making.
