adamyesme1111 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 It says on Redskins.com free agency monitor that Derrick Frost will be an unrestricted free agent. Search didn't find anything but, nobody has been talking about the punter position? I guess no one really cares :laugh:. Who will we get to be our punter without Frost?

BuddyLeeGhostHunter Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Frost won't get any looks. He'll come to us eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just wondering, why haven't we resigned him already if we're planning to keep him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terpskins10 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I'd like to see us bring in a young punter in the draft, somewhere in the 6th round or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballin86 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 frost won't get any offers?? thats what you guys think, he was actually one of the top punters in the NFC last year just went under the radar because of his name and because skins fans dont pay attention to the punter you guys only care about big time WR's like dan snyder, that is why our OL sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jistardy Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I say we just go for it on forth. If that doesnt work, go for it on 5th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think 'you guys' only want a receiver? Are you insinuating that we should go after Frost and give him a 'big time WR' sized contract?

knoxskinsgal Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I could be wrong. But didnt we tender him an offer, before the start of free agency? Which makes him a restricted free agent? I could be wrong, but I will look around.. Edit, yep found the link. Hes a restricted free agent. We have the right to match any offer for him. http://www.redskins.com/news/newsDetail.jsp?id=25049 "The Washington Redskins announce today that they have tendered a qualifying offer to restricted free agent punter Derrick Frost. The qualifying offer keeps Frost a restricted free agent and the Redskins would have the right to match any offer from another team." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyLeeGhostHunter Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I could be wrong. But didnt we tender him an offer, before the start of free agency? Which takes him off the market? I could be wrong, but I will look around..According to this link he is still an unrestricted free agent.http://www.redskins.com/news/newsDetail.jsp?id=7536 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laron Burgundy Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 We're gonna get this guy: http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=68232 A 6'6 punter? He'll need to thicken out and add about 10 pounds or so if he wants to lay the bone-crushing hits that derrick frost was renowned for. Frost might be the only punter ever to get a late hit penalty.

UltimateSkins Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I really hope we draft the best young punter out there. A good punter is very underrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laron Burgundy Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Well darn. I was really enamored with Dragosavich's size and athleticism. That kid could put on 10-15 pounds and still retain his 4.8 speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuddyLeeGhostHunter Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I think a more intriguing question is, what would we do if someone signs Rock Cartwright? Would Marcus Mason be our KR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laron Burgundy Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I think a more intriguing question is, what would we do if someone signs Rock Cartwright?Would Marcus Mason be our KR? Clearly we trade up to the 9th pick and draft desean jackson. That would be our best solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyLeeGhostHunter Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 frost won't get any offers?? thats what you guys think, he was actually one of the top punters in the NFC last year Top punters you say? Top 5?...nah I'll even give you the benefit of the doubt and go top 10. He actually landed 11 out of 20 in the NFC last year. http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?archive=false&conference=0015&statisticCategory=PUNTING&season=2007&seasonType=REG&experience=null&tabSeq=0&qualified=true&Submit=Find I personally thought he did better than that so I thought you might have a point. Thanks for making me check the stats. For the entire NFL, he's in the middle of the pack. Not bad but certainly not the best of the best. http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?archive=false&conference=null&statisticCategory=PUNTING&season=2007&seasonType=REG&experience=null&tabSeq=0&qualified=true&Submit=Find I wouldn't be disappointed if we kept Frost but I think we should entertain some 'competent' competition.

Actually when healthy our Oline is one of the best in the league. Granted we need to add some younger guys for depth, then they can eventually take over for our starters in a few years, but there is noway our Oline sucks.As far as Frost is concerned he's middle of the pack at best he only averaged 41 yards per punt and 36.4 net yards per punt. Thats not bad, but nothing to drool over. Frost will be back once he realizes noone else is interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
