DieselPwr44 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 anybody got insight to what this pretty damn good offseasn is attributed to? I don't think its FO learning from mistakes... snyder giving more control to vinny? .. Maybe the optimism towards the front office stems from the Skins: Not blowing a wad of money in free agency and actually drafting 10 players that are already signed : 1) Before camp starts 2) Before any other team in the league has theirs signed. Isn't that a change from the usual?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifty Gut Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 anybody got insight to what this pretty damn good offseasn is attributed to? I don't think its FO learning from mistakes... snyder giving more control to vinny? I wonder. .. I think we all do but I'm not going to complain. A successful draft (on paper) like we had this offseason is just so much more fufilling than ballin out in free agency. My guess is it comes down to Vinny now being 100% in control of the entire organization answering only to Snyder. Trading our first round pick for two additional second rounders and their contracts > trading two (potential) first rounders + new contract for Chad Johnson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavarleap56 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 The issues I've heard and seen with davis didn't concern if he held out or not. He needs to realize he needs to take care of himself to be productive as possible. Davis has lots of talent its just a question of will he dedicate himself to realize that potential or just be a ok player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titaw Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 And there it is. As predicted by some in the other thread. Alllllrighty then. Time to get down to business. Why in the world do we have 18 2-a-days? Doesn't Zorn know that this frail bunch of geriatrics are injury prone! We need to keep them as pampered as possible. I KEED!

Califan007 The Constipated Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Seriously, are we sure this is the REDSKINS that we're talking about? Ten picks in the draft, no hold outs, and almost nothing in terms of free agency?Damn it feels good to be a Redskin. That IS a scary thought, isn't it lol :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aston Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Snyder: "How does 4 years, $22 million sound?" Davis: "Nope." Snyder: "How about with a $4 million bonus?" Davis: "I'll have to think about it." Snyder: "And I'll throw in a Tempur-Pedic" Davis: "Where do I sign, again?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peregrine Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 So the world ISNT coming to an end? Davis is NOT disrespecting(as the word has been improperly used) the Redskins? Im shocked. Though not about Ecker, he was the odd man out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsGuy Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Sweet. Now what do we complain about? We complain about the fact there is nothing to complain about. Nice to see Davis signed. Onto training camp. :logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulldog Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 This was really a non-event. Second rounders again rarely hold out of camp. That is one of the benefits of accumulating picks in rounds 2 and 3, you get guys with significant upside but at a price that is slotted fairly well with the other picks.

Hardcore Zornography Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 The second round IMHO is the best round for a balance of price/potential/affordability. Agreed. I honestly wouldn't mind trading out of the 1st round every single year if there wasn't a can't miss prospect available in the first when we pick. I think being able to get 2 or 3 2nd rounders instead of a potential bust in the first is a thing we should entertain doing yearly. Saves us money too.

terpfan Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 What person here i remember had ecker making the squad over yoder? It was more than one person. Seemed like almost 50% of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Obliviously (yes I spelled it right), I'm the only one that doesn't know how many TE's are currently on the roster besides Cooley, Davis and Yoder so I have to wonder why we didn't take Ecker into Training Camp. Too many injuries? Too many chocolate eclairs? He parked in Danny's space once too often? Seeing as he's eligible for the Practice Squad, I wonder why we released a former draft pick instead of a UDFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
