SonnyandSam Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Can we stop raiding other teams dumpsters PLEASE!!! The guy did absolutely nothing last year (so what if he was at end). He could not help the freaking Browns!!! So sick of this crap.....Same ole' Skins AGAIN. I hate this team, I really do. Dumpster diving can be quite fruitful. Kurt Warner was bagging groceries before the Rams added him to the roster. LOTS of players do not do so well under a certain coach or defensive scheme (Haynesworth for example); sometimes it is injuries or being played out of position. The FACT is that the Redskins have lots of holes to fill and only only two high draft choices. Exactly how do you think the holes are going to be filled? As long as the Skins sign guys for what they are truly worth and not break the bank every time, another team's trash is better than the garbage on our own roster. EDIT: Just read from a cleveland newspaper that Rogers was injured all summer and never got into football shape and continued to rehab during the season. Not sure what the injury was. Some fans have alluded that he was dogging it ala Haynesworth. Signing him is worthless unless he has the drive and dedication to resurrect his career.

Coolio47 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 He isn't gonna sign with us this week since he has multiple teams contacting him: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81e4343e/article/redskins-among-many-pursuing-rogers-dl-in-no-rush?module=HP_headlines Defensive lineman Shaun Rogers will meet with the Washington Redskins on Friday, but will not sign with an NFL team this week, according to a league source.The three-time Pro Bowler, known as "Big Baby," was released by the Cleveland Browns on Wednesday, but is in no rush to sign with another suitor. Upwards of a third of the league has contacted the defensive lineman, and Rogers will assess the situation over the weekend and then decide if he wants to take more visits, or begin negotiations with one or more teams.

pjfootballer Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 And I'm not convinced Rogers will cost us more than Solai. Solai is coming off a career year and will want a bigger contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HigSkin Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 http://voices.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/ Shaun Rogers meets with Redskins, signing is not imminent By Mike Jones Washington Redskins coaches and officials met with free agent defensive tackle Shaun Rogers on Friday, and no signing is imminent, according to a source familiar with the situation. The Redskins are in the market for a nose tackle to anchor the line in their 3-4 defense, and Rogers, an 11-year veteran and three-time Pro Bowl pick, is considered one of the top defensive tackles available. He was cut by Cleveland earlier this week and because of that early release, he is free to sign with any team before the official start of free agency, which won't commence until a new collective bargaining agreement is settled on between the owners and players union. The 6-foot-4, 350-pound Rogers played sparingly last season while limited by injuries. Rogers reportedly has as many as 10 teams interested in his services. He is expected to command a contract worth roughly $5 million per season. The Redskins' interest in him is another indication that Albert Haynesworth is on his way out of town. Signed to a contract worth $41 million in guaranteed money just two years ago, he was major disappointment and this past season clashed repeatedly with coach Mike Shanahan because of his unwillingness to play nose tackle in the 3-4.

Dukes and Skins Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 hot damnit.. I mean lets be realistic here Dro, while he's a good player the guy is 32 years old and while he can be effective I'm not going to overpay him to have him on the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWJ Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 IF we get a new CBA there will be holes that can be filled at other positions. We can then get some young blood at NT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorebd82 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I'm glad to hear that they won't overpay for his services. If he's looking for money similar to what Jamal Williams got last offseason, then we'd be better off paying a couple mil more to bring in Soliai.

TK Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Don't really see Cam being a starter Day 1 unless he really beasts at the Combine. Then I don't see him being there at #10. I've said since McNabb was benched that was 50/50 he'd be the starter next season (provided there IS a next season. Stoopid effin CBA.....) & really, nothing has changed to indicate it being other then still 50/50 on McNabb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
