CBass1724 Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 you guys have to remember, santana was not a proven receiver other than college. he was fragile and unhappy being the slot man in NY, but he comes here and is a star. Now they have to be afraid of the WR screen on both sides of the line as well as a WR screen to randle el where he throws down field to MOSS. oh man, i just creamed my panties.

SittingBull Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I'm thinking RE said this to Elfin while en route to sign the contract to maybe make the Bears make an impulse decision to offer more at the last minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDSKNfaithfull Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 The link on this post says that Elfin said this on a radio show befero the deal was reported and that Randell El did leave Redskins Park before the deal got done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebreaker Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 6 years, 31 mil, which includes a 10 mil signing bonus. Ridiculous numbers. He doesn't deserve that type of contract, that is crazy. He's a good player, but he has yet to prove himself as a reciever. He biggest contribution to the superbowl was the trick play where he threw a touchdown. How important is THAT to our passing game? I would've rather let another team overpay for his services than us. I thought Danny boy had learned his lesson. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0crates Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 If ESPN and The Washingotn Post are both reporting it, I believe it. Of course, it is not official until we get word from the organization. But, I trust ESPN and the Post over the Times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingdaddy Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 If the article on ESPN.com is correct, we gave Randle El 13 mil more than the Bears offered him over the same 6 years of the deal. Why do I think this could be seriously foolish?http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2365504 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skins n' Bones Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Not to defend Elfin, but RE probably told him there was no deal because he was told not to say anything until it was announced. This is sweet! Back in the day: Monk, Clark, Sanders, & Didier And now: Moss, Lloyd, Randle-El, & Cooley Not bad at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrunellSuperbowl Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Or some just call it as we see it.Really, I have a problem when we sign a guy who only cleared 600 yards once, and he was the #2 WR option in Pittsburgh. I'd like to be wrong on this, but we do have other needs as well, and the veteran DEs are disappearing quickly. Jason There is more to football then numbers. Moss did not put up any numbers before he came here but his talent was clear. Same with Randel EL. He gets open like a number 2 reciever. I THNK this is the best deal we have made other then Moss and Portis in yrs. Randel EL is the type of guy that does all the little things to get u 2 extra wins.

bulldog Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 if the parameters of the Redskins offer are true.......6 years, $31 million with a $10 million bonus, how could Randle El realistically leave this deal on the table to visit other clubs? Nobody else is going to come close to those numbers. Edgerrin James only received a $7 million bonus when he signed earlier today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrunellSuperbowl Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 a lot of fantasy football guys do not like this deal. Just like the Moss deal. They have no idea what kind offense the Steelers run. Why do you think Buress wanted out? That is a pounding system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rlhjr34 Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Like it has been said before Moss wasn't putting up 1400 yds in NY before he came here. Lloyd had 3 different ****ty qb's and still ended up with decent numbers and EL was on an offense that for 90% of the year was a run first offense. Roethlesburger probably didn't even have a 300 yd passing game this year did he, I know he sure didn't in the SB. I just think stats can be taken out of context and have to be looked at under a current offesnse. I'll be the worst of the 4 WR will end up with 600-700yds receiving and that 2-3 of these guys will hit 1000 yds, plus don't forget Cooley who could also get in the 600 yd range at TE.
