Sherlock Holmes Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I remember last year, all the hype over who we would sign. John Abraham for Ramsey trade talks HAHA! Anyway, when does it all start again? I'm itching for it to begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitzpackage Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I'm not sure what day it starts, but it needs to begin with us locking up Dockery and Cooley. And I would hope that would happen this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherlock Holmes Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 I know that I DONT want, Nate Clements, or London Fletcher. Both living off their reputation of great players 3 or 4 years ago. Does anybody have a list of FA CB's and MLB's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be paid at least the average of the top ten highest paid players at his position. A Transition Player may sign an "Offer Sheet" with any other team, but his original team has seven days to match any offer he receives. If the original team declines to match the offer, no compensation will be awarded. FRANCHISE PLAYER: Each team may name one Franchise Player and that label must remain with him until his contract expires or until he is released. He will be paid at least the average of the top five highest paid players at his position. He may sign an "Offer Sheet" with any other team, but his original team has seven days to match any offer he receives. If the original team declines to match the offer, compensation in the form of two first round draft picks in consecutive years will be awarded from the signing team. RESTRICTED FREE AGENT (RFA): A player whose contract has expired and has fewer than four tenured years in the league. He may sign an "Offer Sheet" with any other team, but his original team has seven days to match any offer he receives. If the original team does not match the offer, compensation will be awarded in the form of draft picks from the signing team. The round and quantity of picks are determined by the "Qualifying Offer" made by the player's original team. If a RFA is tendered a minimum qualifying offer the compensation is the equivalent of the round in which that player was originally selected. If that player was originally a rookie free agent, no compensation is awarded. UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENT (UFA): A player whose contract has expired and has four or more tenured years in the league. He may sign with any other team with no restrictions. If a team loses more UFAs than it signs, they will be awarded "Compensatory Draft Picks" from the league. The value of the pick is determined by the difference of the contracts signed by the players lost and those acquired. If a team has signed an equal number or more UFAs than it has lost, no "Compensatory Picks" will be awarded. EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS FREE AGENT (ERFA): A player whose contract has expired and has three or fewer tenured years in the league. His original team must make a contract offer by the league imposed deadline or the player becomes an unrestricted free agent. No compensation is awarded for losing EFAs. COMPENSATORY DRAFT PICKS: Compensation awarded by the league to teams who lost more UFAs than they signed. Compensation is in the form of extra draft picks added to the end of rounds three through seven. The quantity of picks is equivalent to the difference of UFAs signed to UFAs lost. For example, if a team loses 4 UFAs and signs 1 UFA, they will receive three Compensatory Selections. The value of the picks is determined by the difference of the contracts signed by the players lost and those acquired. The highest possible compensatory pick is the 31st of the third round (91st overall). If a team has signed an equal number or more UFAs than it lost, no "Compensatory Picks" are awarded. OFFER SHEET: A contract offer from another team signed by a RFA, Transition Player, of Franchise Player. The player's original team has seven days to match the offer and retain the player. QUALIFYING OFFER: An initial contract offer made to RFAs. This offer determines what type of compensation the player's original team receives if the RFA signs with another team. The original team is awarded draft choices from the signing team. The highest compensation is a package of 1st and 3rd round picks. Players tendered minimum offers carry compensation equivalent to the round in which they were originally drafted. For instance, a RFA was originally a 6th round pick, and is given a minimum tender "Qualifying Offer." If he signs an "Offer Sheet" with another team and the original team declines to match the offer, the original team will receive the signing team's 6th round pick. Players who were originally rookie free agents carry no compensation if a minimum qualifying offer is tendered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavredskin56 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 nate clements is very good, but id rather have asante samuels. fletcher is a monster, go look at his number, he'd be a great addition to this team. Theres no way the redskins will get asante samuel. The Patriots have been very banged up at the cornerback position, and asante samuel used to be like there 4th corner a few years back and now look at him. He is in his prime and the patriots will definetly lock him up this offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have Samuels and Briggs, but I know what you mean. A third cornerback like Clements would mean solidarity at corner for us, with Rogers, Springs ( hopefully ), and a FA pickup. We do need a MLB though. We are so soft over the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitzpackage Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 We do need a MLB though. We are so soft over the middle. Man it's gonna be tough for GW to turn over the reigns to another defensive "quarterback" other than Lemar Marshall. I don't see it happening unless LM has a probowl season next year. Then the front office would choose not to resign him and subsequently bring in a worse player for more money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chump Bailey Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 All I want is some quality backups. On both sides of the line Quality backups? How about some quality starters? Our defense is atrocious Sarge. We are doomed to repeat the 2006 season unless we get some talent on the defensive side of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chump Bailey Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 this thread is exactly what is wrong with the redskins"Fuel up the plane Danny!!" so stupid. keep the plane on the runway and focus on the draft We need to do BOTH - wisely... Unless we can yield four guys with four picks that can start and contribute immediately on defense, and the chances of that are slim and none - we will have to resort to FA. Heading into next season with the talent we have now on defense is okay with you? This is not a plan for success either. I agree the organization needs to build via the draft and then tweak/augment with free agency, but Joe does not share in that belief per se. He likes 'proven' guys. It is not going to change anytime soon. I would like Joe to bring the team back to playoff contention and possibly even a SB appearance. It's not going to happen just by relying on the draft in the next two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is in his prime and the patriots will definetly lock him up this offseason. Don't assume that Samuel is off limits. If he asks for too much money, the Patriots will let him walk. They've shown time and time again that they won't pay more than what they think a player is worth and have no problem plugging someone else into his slot.

RFKFedEx Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 danny boy probably already has the plane fueled I doubt that the Steelers, Eagles, Patriots, Chargers, Broncos or Cowboys personel acquizition plans involve the team plane.

blitzpackage Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 How's Ricky Manning Jr been doing lately? I know he had a promising rookie season w/ the Panthers when they went to the SB a few years back. He plays for the Bears and was third string last year with the Panthers because he lost his starting job to Chris Gamble in Gamble's rookie season. He hasn't been very good since the Panthers SB run. Not to mention he has a few legal problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPortJGibbs89 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 this thread is exactly what is wrong with the redskins"Fuel up the plane Danny!!" so stupid. keep the plane on the runway and focus on the draft Unless we trade down in the draft we only have 4 draft picks. Like someone else stated, FA is not like the highway to failure if you go about it the right way. We have alot of good FA on this team. We just dont have enough picks in the draft to fix all the problems on defense and some depth on offense its just not possible. Like it or not we will dip into the FA market and I hope we go about it the right way this year without giving out huge contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarpon75 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 The team could end up with 5 or 6 draft picks.By trading down and trading 1or 2 picks for next year(08).I know that I wiil probably be blasted for mentioning trading next years picks but am only talking 1 or 2 late round picks which if done correctly would not have much bearing on the 08 draft.
