Zen-like Todd Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 The way I see it, there are at least 2 open roster spots right now. I'm thinking Ray Brown on offense, and some random defensive lineman we may or may not know about. And I'm going to say that it goes down tomorrow (Thursday). Training camp starts Monday, so I think we'll want to get these guys in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefhogskin48 Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 We are being a bit too much like the Eagles right now. What's the harm in signing a couple guys at the Vet minimum? Other than Adams, no one out there is gonna command much jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins57 Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 I believe Ray Brown if signed may wait until camp is under way, the more camp missed the less work the old man will have to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondie Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 I think the Skins will sign 2 players tomorrow and those players will be rookies. Training camp is getting closer and those later round rookies may be getting edgy. Texas Blondie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indyskinsfan Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 I chose 3 and all will be rookies. I believe the signing of Ramsey will take place over the weekend, with the final details being worked out on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulldog Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 until Sam Adams signs on somewhere (Cincinnati?) I am going to stick to my belief that the Skins are keeping cap space available for a last minute offer to him. we passed on Willie Jackson, who signed for reasonable dollars in Atlanta and didn't get involved in the Josh Evans sweepstakes either. no news on Ray Brown or other OL either. so, in terms of veterans, it seems clear the Skins are focused in another direction. and that direction I bet is still ole Sammy. in terms of the rookies I would imagine there will be a push to get them all done this weekend, with the possible exception of Ramsey, who may take a few extra days. but as we have discussed before, none of the draft picks project to be immediate contributors, so there is not the urgency there was with the Arrington and Samuels signings a couple of years ago. we DO have a lot of paperwork to do, though, with only 2 of 10 picks signed. :laugh: most of these deals are really standard slotting without much variability in any event.

PCS Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 Didn't consider the dra........ :doh: TCO, TCO, TCO. Okay. 2 draft picks tomorow, (real close to guessing names....nah). F/A a possibility on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panel Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 I think that the Redskins front office have a plan here, we will save our money until training camp cuts begin (Offensive Linemen are very susceptible to these sort of cap saving moves), and when there are a handful of players with no jobs, and very few teams with any cap room at all, the asking prices will be very low. This is where we could make a killing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Could'a, Would'a, Should'a Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 I for one would not like Ray Brown back as hes almost 40 now, Bruce Mathews was just awful last year, and really started to lose his game 2-3 years ago. Matthews was so bad last season that Tennesse had to switch him to centre (the least demanding physicly on an Oline) Saying that Brown was pretty decent last year but stilll... every year you lose a step or 2.

NavyDave Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 We will sign two rookies from our draft. I see us going in to camp with our own players and if needed pick up a camp cut or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
