not sure how we can compete with the 49ers cap space.

 

Can they offer a contract with a large signing bonus, but voiding after one year?.......let's say a 5 year deal that voids after one.....spread the bonus out over 5 years to limit his cap number......and then promise not to Franchise tag him next year.

"CBS' Jason La Canfora reports the Redskins have made a "very legit" offer for free agent Josh Norman."

 

"Per La Canfora, the 49ers' interest is also "very strong." The Redskins have the need, but also roughly $40 million less in cap space than the 49ers. If the Niners are serious, they will be hard to match. The move would be out of character for Washington GM Scot McCloughan, who has been very quiet through his first two Redskins free agencies."

However, Norman has changed agents, so it would be a few days before he could finalize anything with the new team, source also says.

Picking up Norman also would enable them, if they indeed trade and add more picks, to address another area higher than anticipated. RB? C?

Rumor is his old agent is staying on to co-manage Norman.  So Norman can still sign immediately.

As for Norman, if they are that interested, I am guessing they think they aren't a mile away in terms of being a contender.

 

Just to having fun with that though -- in theory at least it shouldn't be especially hard to upgrade their other positions of weaknesses (NT, S, MLB) via the draft, especially if they can ignore corner

Sam Bradford has made the max out of nothing. He started with 6 year deal, 50 milion garanteed! And played 5 years but only showed up 49 games (around 3 full seasons).

He then went to Eagles for two years 26 milion garanteed.

The man has collected at least 76 milion dollars in 6 years. Thats crazy for a very average player.

So much this. He is the Lane Kiffin of QBs

Jees. If we sign Josh Morgan, I think we cut/trade someone.

Garcon

Culliver

Lauvao

Andre Roberts(I'm sure we will anyways once he clears his injury)

Thoughts?

I just don't see us signing him. It will require a bidding war and I just don't see us partaking

Looking at the NFC East this year, not a bad idea to get a guy who is subletting space in Odell Beckham’s head.

Between Andre Roberts and Chris Culliver, Redskins could clear a lot of the needed room. But may impact deals with Reed and Garcon/D-Jax.
