It's going to me more than a minute to process, but the @AlbertBreer article certainly more balanced than most on this subject to date.

 
Ben StandigVerified account @BenStandig 12m12 minutes ago

At least the 2nd time recently somebody reported GMSM wanted to extend Cousins early on. Here, Breer's work makes unclear if 100% true.

 

Ben StandigVerified account @BenStandig 12m12 minutes ago

I certainly recall GMSM talking about building a 53-man roster and not just paying one guy when the topic of Kirk's contract came up before.

Despite tumult, Redskins will find "no shortage" of GM job-seekers, one analyst says  read it in BRBN WP

Meshes with what Gruden said at combine: “I’d like to see how he does with the injury behind him and see where he’s at mentally."

Interesting listen. Manusky views both McClain and McGee as 3-4 ends, specifically called McGee the LE (cited length). Looking for a NT

#ICYMI: Audio from @Redskins def. coord. Greg Manusky talking w/ @thecooleyzone & @kevins980 is now online http://www.espn980.com/?p=80643 
 
 

Mark Bullock @MarkBullockNFL 6m6 minutes ago

Manusky said Swearinger more the back end guy (meaning FS) while Cravens more in the box (meaning SS), which is as it should be.

RT—His contract may have to be reworked but it looks like DeAngelo Hall will get a shot at a 10th season w/#Redskins  read it in BRBN CSN

Manusky says Hall will get another shot. I like Hall but if he has any role in Plan A, it's a bad plan.

 

Burgundy BlogVerified account @BurgundyBlog 5m5 minutes ago

Hall must absolutely not be counted on to start, and he makes no sense as a backup safety, who should be playing specials.

Veteran DB Darius Butler has another round of visits scheduled, starting with Washington today. Colts want him back. Visited CHI already

 

 

Burgundy BlogVerified account @BurgundyBlog 1h1 hour ago

W~ McC out of picture, hard-line BPA (best player available) draft strategy will soften considerably. #Redskins drafting defense in 1st.

The Falcons and DT Dontari Poe agree to a 1-year deal worth $8M, source said. He can make up to $10M with incentives.

Interesting. I remember @JimmyKempski saying he had heard some things about Cravens off the field before the draft last year

Re: @AlbertBreer's Skins article from earlier, is this a "thing" with Cravens? http://www.dailynews.com/sports/20140816/usc-safety-sua-cravens-clashed-with-teammates-over-miscommunication 
 

 

The Redskins signed free agent linebacker Chris Carter and are hosting his former Colts teammate, defensive back Darius Butler, a source said. Butler, a former second-round pick by New England, played a variety of roles with Indianapolis last season: corner, nickel corner and safety. He provides depth in the secondary for Washington. Carter will be with his fifth organization since entering the NFL in 2011. He has primarily been a backup.

The thing with Cravens is, he isn't even an elite athlete. So if he isn't a try-hard "football player" what is he? Gotta be tough and put in the work in the NFL, especially when you have his metrics, which aren't good for a LB or S.

I wish him well, but we're at the "Filene's Basement" (Polian term) stage of free agency (sizeable discounts).

Reached out to sources around league and found that DT Johnathan Hankins is asking for A LOT of money. A lot as in more than $10M per year.
