tibbidoe Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I’m looking for the best source(s) for any and all offseason info for the team. Be it roster moves, correct roster listings, rumors that have weight, front office personnel changes, etc. I’m constantly scouring the internet for information. I keep an excel file that has the current roster, transactions, team history and so on. Keeping this file current in the offseason always proves to be difficult and frustrating, even with the 20+ websites I frequent to look for news. It doesn’t seem like any site I find keeps the team page updated very well once the regular season ends. For example, Redskins.com last updated their ‘transactions’ page more than 2 weeks ago. Yahoo, ESPN and CBS Sports all show different current rosters. Wikipedia (unreliable, I know) shows D.Hall as a UFA, which he isn’t unless I’ve completely missed something. So, what sources do YOU use to keep yourself up to date on the moves the team makes? Or, is there any way an official team roster/transaction page could be added to the ES site somewhere?

tibbidoe Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 I agree that this site is a good source of information, but I'm looking for something a bit more detailed and organized for some stuff. A full roster listing with every player currently under contract instead of searching posts for signing info. I've found many moves that went under the radar, but it was sometime after it actually happened. Players signed and released before I have time to find out about it. Transactions for all player movement (signed, released, UFA/RFA, IR, practice squad movement, so on). Things like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohhhh OK my bad, that kinda information hmmmm I'd say Extemeskins.com:ols: Seriously though not trying to be a smart-ass, for me I think Extremeskins fans keep up with every move this team makes, however its not going to be all in one thread which would make it more difficult for you to gather what your looking for...

Destino Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 ExtemesSkins.....True source for all Redskin related information:) So as the back in the day Miami bass group Tag Team would say "Whoomp there it is" Around here every negative report is BS and every positive report is accurate. If you want accurate info it's the same as it's always been. Get several sources and use your common sense. Breaking news section here is good to lead you to media reports. NFL.com is always worth checking for stats and info. Google is your friend for contract info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark The Homer Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I'm sure we have all the info, but it's not organized. Here's the best place I know of: http://www.thehogs.net/washington-redskins/transactions.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truant Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Any thread with the title "rumor" or "I heard from my cousin's niece's ex-boyfriend" is a good place to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Apart from ExtremeSkins, if you just want news, I would suggest doing the following: Read "Redskins Confidential" by John Keim. Follow John Keim on twitter. It's on the Washington Examiner. Read the Redskins blog by Matt T. http://blog.redskins.com. Follow RedskinsBlog on twitter. Both are excellent sources.

wilbur58z Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I would say Matt Terl as well....he reports every transaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Adama Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I'm sure we have all the info, but it's not organized. Here's the best place I know of:http://www.thehogs.net/washington-redskins/transactions.php Your mod rights have been revoked! You're supposed to say Extremeskins.Com! Seriously though, I always check here. Between some of our insider sources, redskins one tracking, folks posting articles, etc. This is the one stop shop of accurate information during Free Agency.

wildbill1952 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 ESPN usually has some good information, but you really need to purchase ESPN Insider to see some of their info. I usually start at ES though. since Redskin News is always listed within 10 minutes or so, disregardiong speculation that's rampant elsewhere.
