Lavarleap56 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Greg Toler is one of the more underrated cornerbacks available in this years free agency class.Even though Toler was a key piece for the Arizona Cardinals top 5 passing defense, there hasn't been a lot of buzz surrounding him. He is a physical player, solid in coverage, and has played well when on the field. The Washington Redskins need to upgrade their secondary and sources say Toler is on the teams radar. With the current cap situation Washington is not in position to sign one of the top corners available on the market, and that is not a bad thing. Toler would give an instant bang for your buck that would be a vital piece to the championship puzzle. Let's look at a few plays that stood out to me.

Laxpunk2006 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 IF we can land Toler and Lynch, I would be estatic!!! Likewise. These under the radar type signings can go a long way, cap hit or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogofWar1 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Great write-up and analysis, as always. I'll 3rd or 4th, or whateverth the guy who said signing Lynch and Toler would be great. We'd be able to fill starting holes with reasonably priced guys, and would probably be able to go BPA in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesMadisonSkins Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Lynch, Toller, Cyprien (2nd) and Mathieu (4th/5th) would add so much dynamism to our secondary ... whether we retain Hall or not! I'm certainly sold on Toller and Lynch because of LL's write ups haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakerskinz Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I heard on ESPN last night that the salary cap might be set $123 Million,3 million more then what orginally was stated. If thats true,that extra 3 million would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If thats true,that extra 3 million would be great! What was it before ... $120.9? So that extra $2.1 million would certainly help. I factored that into my calculation in another thread that had us getting up to $27 million under the cap (Hall, Fletch, Brown, Carriker gone) plus some restructures.

SteveFromYellowstone Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Only thing with Toler is that he wasn't a starter this season. Apparently he missed all of 2011 with a knee injury also. He won't be super expensive though and some of the tape on him is impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Great write up, thanks. Very informative, and I agree, he looks like an excellent player to consider. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rskin72 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Thanks for the write up..... I remember that play where he dove out of bounds to save a loose ball. Certainly he appears to be an upgrade for our secondary if the price is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC9 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Likewise.These under the radar type signings can go a long way, cap hit or not. that would make my day too. This guy was an under rated part of their success because you have Pat Peterson in that Defensive Backfield. Just the type of dude we'd look for. And if we could land the Honey Badger in the 4th or 5th... holy ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dukes and Skins Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 You know a guy like Toler could go a long way for this team. Him and Lynch in FA would be 2 of the more savvy moves we could make this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrepDC Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Greg's a local guy too. I'm sure he'd love to come home and play for the Skins similar to D. Hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to Northwestern in Hyattsville, but didn't go to a big name college b/c of grades. Hopefully he's intrigued in playing at home in a secondary with two other local products Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I feel like certain players are disconnected with their environment, and that experience affects his contributions to the team and hometown. When you sign hometown guys, you know the player gets how important this team is to this town. It's an underrated aspect I think, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having local players means more Skins fans (if only because they're relatives of players) in attendance at home games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinC Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 As per the consensus in this thread I think Toler would a great pick up - the only thing that worries me is the number of games he missed with hamstring injuries. He has a history of missing games with injuries and that's something which tends not to get better as players age (not that he is old at 28).

SWFLSkins Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I like this idea and another great write up thanks. One thing for sure it seems through the draft and the F/A market the secondary is going to get attention, and that's a great thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing for sure it seems through the draft and the F/A market the secondary is going to get attention, and that's a great thing. It's looking like a good year to address the secondary with a deep free agent class at corner (subject to who actually hits the market) and some depth in the draft at safety.

Momma There Goes That Man Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 As per the consensus in this thread I think Toler would a great pick up - the only thing that worries me is the number of games he missed with hamstring injuries. He has a history of missing games with injuries and that's something which tends not to get better as players age (not that he is old at 28). Thats because Arizona plays on field turf. We are men in DC, we play on dirt and if God so desires it to rain, we play on mud. I am excited about bringing him in though. I think bringing him in with restructuring Hall allows us to put Crawford at the #4 CB who can fill in at times as #3 for injury or breathers for the other guys. It would give us a really strong rotation of CBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
