tehhunter Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Interesting fact I picked up on another NFL forum. Smoot is due 12 mil next season by the Vikings, and is a certain cap cut (i.e. he is definetly a FA). What are the chances that we'd pick him up to shore up our own secondary / would you as fans welcome him back or shun him? Honestly, I can see why he would leave for that much money. But seeing as he had an off year this year, he couldn't ask for an equal salary, and also the cap is projected to go to 109 mil this year. So yay/nay for smoot?

Santana_89 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I wouldn't object at all. The question is would he consider us again????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorPickSix Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I'd do it. Shawn Springs should make the same switch Vincent did to Safety. Springs moves over to SS unless Fox continues to develop or Troy Vincent out-performs him. Then agian, if our d-line plays like how it played last week, all of our corners will look good no matter who they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrBoogerLips Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I would love to have him but I think price will be a deal-breaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManleyMann7271 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I loved Smoot, but he was an average corner in a good system and he'll want way too much money to come back but if he did I would welcome him back with open arms. Look at the bright side, he couldn't be a bigger bust then Adam Archuleta, that guy gets beat more than Norv Turner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redskin mark Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 If we signed him tommorrow, I'd put him at 3rd string and make him earn every chance he had at starting. I wouldn't give him anything for what he did to us! Redskin for life?................................ But something just came to mind. Would he be any better than Carlos Rogers? Can we really take two cornerbacks getting burnt all the time? :doh: Don't think so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slateman Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 If we can get him cheap (relatively speaking) and Clemments isn't an option, sure, I'd take him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Happy Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 So people bash the FO for not re-signing him. Then we have the chance to get him back, and nobody wants him? Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegeta613 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Please With Greg Williams thinking he was expendable you think he would lobby for Smoot to come back?? Of course he wouldn't do something that would make the team/fans happy and make the Redskins better He will get Nate Clemons for 42 milion and a 15 million dollar signing bonus Seriously though Smoot would want to be a starter not a nickle corner and signing him might hurt whats left of Rogers confidence Signing Smoot would send out and signal that Rogers is a bust and with that said............. I'm all for bringing Smoot back because Rogers sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 With his injuries, he knows he wouldn't get overpaid. But, I think he would be great back here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledbottumz Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 this would be just like trotter going back to the eagles. I'm all for it. He should get more than the minimum, less than he was getting in minny. He would once again thrive in this system, and provide much-needed depth and competition for Rogers. He didn't leave like LA - it's not like he paid to get out of here; he did what most people in his situation would do, he went where he was wanted, and where they would pay him. I think it would be great - an acknowledgment by Smoot that this system was good for him, and an acknowledgment by Williams that maybe some players are better for his system than others.

phishisthegreatstuff Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I would love to have him if he isn't too much loot..we need to get a cb in free agency so its either him nate clements or asanti samules. Well we need to get one good free agent...a lb or a cb. Id say either lance briggs or nate clements but maybe if we can save some money and get smoot that wouldn't be so bad. I always like him and was mad when he left. I hope he comes home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
