Ravens777 Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 The following was taken from an article on NFL.com. I have talked to several Skin fans that dispute the tax problems for the skins,so i thought I would throw the subject for response. It seems with out an extension of the collective bargaining agreement the skins are in severe cap trouble. I think this will affect a lot of teams unless they raise the cap. Personally I think the cap should be null and void SKINNED Without an extension of the collective bargaining agreement, this could be one of the bloodiest weeks the NFL has witnessed, with more teams cutting more players at this time of the year than the league ever has seen. Walt Harris finished fourth on Washington with 57 total tackles. And no team is in worse shape than the Washington Redskins, who some league insiders believe will have to cut anywhere from 15 to 20 players. Those numbers will depend on how many players will be willing to restructure their contracts, but one NFL general manager who reviewed Washington's salary-cap situation wondered how the Redskins will even be able to field a team. For starters, the Redskins are expected to release defensive backs Matt Bowen and Walt Harris, defensive linemen Renaldo Wynn and Brandon Noble, wide receivers James Thrash and Taylor Jacobs, center Cory Raymer, and kicker John Hall. Even with all those moves, the Redskins still will be significantly over the salary cap, requiring them to release even more players from their roster. No team is rooting for a CBA extension any harder than Washington. Otherwise, the Redskins team next weekend will be considerably different from the one they have this weekend. ARMS TRADE Not all the Redskins moves will be cuts. At least one will be a trade. The Redskins also are expected to trade quarterback Patrick Ramsey this week. At least three teams have expressed a serious interest, and one should be able to put together an enticing enough package to lure away a player the Redskins once drafted in the first round. The Redskins are not expected to get a whole lot in return for Ramsey, due to the fact that there are so many quarterbacks expected to be on the free-agent market. But they will get something for a team that soon could have many holes. NFL on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#1SkinsFan Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 I'd be upset if we released Renaldo Wynn. He is a great run stopper, and gets pressure on the qb. And he's a great guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubba9497 Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 just rehashing Pete Prisico's article, not very accurate btw if the Skins are so bad off, and only one owner of the "evil 9" to has to switch sides to get it done.... why wouldn't Snyder just give in?

If there is no deal then a lot of teams will be releasing players, then signing others, it will be interesting to say the least. What hurts us is we have no big ticket guys we can just cut and save a ton of money so we have to cut a lot, but will be able to replace them.

spm Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 That list (with the possible exception of Hall) is made up entirely of overpaid players on the downside of their career. Even Wynn, although a good player, is a bit long in the tooth and paid very well for a run stopping specialist. If we were 20 million under it would still be good business to cut most of those players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankbones Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 What will we do with if all those stars end up being cut? The horror!
