SemperFi Skins Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Khalil Mack is worth every freaking penny... Defense wins championships....I would absolutely give a 1st for him and then some... Just don't know if we can actually afford him, monetarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

757SeanTaylor21 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Mack is no shadow of a doubt worthy of a first. Id send a first, a future second and preston 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right that Smith will probably get overpaid. He's a good but not great player. If our FO were smarter we would have locked him up a year or two ago.  You guys are overvaluing Norman. Nobody wants him. He's physically declining and has a moody attitude. His value is zilch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right on Norman now, though Oakland FO ain't too bright. Concerned about going over a 3rd, we need a corner and LG bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veryoldschool Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Not interested in Mack.  If the team was primed to win like Minnesota than taking a shot at a Super Bowl with a high prized acquisition makes sense but since I believe the Skins will have to battle to get over .500 I don’t think a trade makes since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade7 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Here's the thing on Norman, when's the last time he had an interception?  He's like the second or third highest paid player on the team, and straight up got abused in that Denver game (haven't seen that since Pryor was playing for Cleveland and kept posterizing him). I'm sorry but his coverage skills is not making up for his lack if turnovers, and it's not jus that people don't want to throw his way, hit him right in the breadbasket, right to the ground.  The answer is week 15 of 2016, not 2017, 2016. And before that, week 4 of 2016. Oh, and he's 30. Danger, Will Robinson, Danger. 10 minutes ago, Jumbo said: Did yall delete that call out thread for the whole site?

bh32 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Norman just isn't worth what he is paid..For that kind of money he should be shutting down the other teams top WR and he just dosen't do it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bh32 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 I remember Norman right before he came to the Redskins being on NFLN and they were asking him about all these different WR's in the NFL and he was calling them all trash..What i find funny why isn't he saying it now? could it be because he knows that he isn't as good as he thought he was and dosen't want to be embarrassed? sherman was the same exact way and now look at him..

Cooleyfan1993 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Norman was playing through what was it, a shoulder injury? Rib injury? For most of last year, wasn’t he? He did have a couple (at least) great forced fumbles last year, a couple of them i remember happening early in the season when he was healthy, prior to the injury.  I want to hope the bad coverage was in part due to our d line being injured badly last season, and that with a healthier d line this year, that will force QBs into poor decisions and hopefully Norman catching a few interceptions this season. I’m in wait and see more on Norman this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy Monk Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 I don't understand what you are trying to say @Renegade7.  Norman's base salary and prorated portions are guaranteed. Next season is where it becomes tolerable to cut free of him, and that is where the cap gain outweighs the loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TradeTheBeal! Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 For the record, I am absolutely on board with the idea of trading 2 1st rounders for Mack and inking him long-term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSSkinz Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 With contracts skyrocketing I think the NFL needs to make a major adjustment to the salary cap, probably won't happen until the CBA expires but we're inching closer to the MLB where an average player gets $10M a year.  Its time for the players to fight until the cap is eliminated or significantly adjusted.  Even something like having 2 designated players who don't count toward the cap could be helpful.

Said it once and I'll say it again, NFL needs Max Contracts like NBA or they are going to be in a world of hurt trying field competitive teams with more then one elite player on it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are my thoughts as well. You don't make a move on star linebacker in this situation unless you are gearing up to make a run on the SuperBowl.
