Perhaps we re-sign him on the cheap. Probably wishful thinking, but I still think the guy might be able to be productive. Oakland was also looking at him from what I heard, frankly I'd be disappointed if no one signs him. He's a guy who definitely wants it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Will Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I’m just curious..why the hell are we so quite(besides the Smith trade)on trying to pickup any helpful players while the rest of the league is busy swapping and stacking their rosters???..I’m well aware that we don’t have a great number of players that other teams would be willing to trade for,but we got guys like Cravens sitting around that could bring us someone to help fill some of our needs!!..what does anybody else think????

dyst Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Dolphins franchised Laundry and then traded him. Teams scared as **** not to be complete idiots like the Skins and lose players for nothing. 1 minute ago, Mr.Will said: I’m just curious..why the hell are we so quite(besides the Smith trade)on trying to pickup any helpful players while the rest of the league is busy swapping and stacking their rosters???..I’m well aware that we don’t have a great number of players that other teams would be willing to trade for,but we got guys like Cravens sitting around that could bring us someone to help fill some of our needs!!..what does anybody else think???? Let’s not make any trades, we automatically come out on the bottom of them. Our FA prowess is a little better but thats not saying much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what I’m afraid of..that really didn’t work out too well for us last season-picked up a handful of players and only two of em really made any significant contributions imo(Swearinger and Z.Brown)but the rest just sucked up more $$ than they were worth(McGee,Pryor,Quick,Mcclain)..I’m only hoping an praying that we pull off a better haul this offseason than lasts!!..but you did make a good point,thx for ur comment!!

Hosley plays the slot. Moreau/Dunbar takes over for Breeland, Spaight takes over for Brown. We're really not talking about drastic dropoffs here, if any at all (aside from Fuller). This will put us in a MUCH better position after next year... but all the reports are saying that the Redskins will be aggressive, so as per usual, the FO only sees one year ahead. If you're not gonna try to keep Brown then you might as well bring back Compton. Spaight was ok but not remotely in the ball park of Brown inside the box. Plus was banged up in what would qualify as a healthy season for him. Gotta upgrade significantly at NT to cover the weakness at ILB or get a stud ILB.

Good heart, but awful skill. At worst, take a flyer on a random dude and hope he isn't trash. Better than the complete mediocrity we KNOW we'd get from Compton.

I had him rated as highest QB in draft last year and think he is basically similar in skill set as Carson Wentz. I know Watson had a great 8 or so games, but watch Kizer in a few years.

Love to see the guy come here. I am following HB on twitter as are more ESers so If I see something I'll post it. I would think Swearinger would have a HUGE influence on him coming here, if it's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Mathieu IMO would be a great acquistion. I don't love trading picks but my beef is really 1st through 3rd rounders for veterans. A 5th rounder for a young guy, I am fine with. Having said that, if its draft picks the Cardinals want, doesnt it seem inevitable he is going to be a Brown? Or considering he is a marquee player going cheap in a trade, an Eagle? Though arguably they dont need him with Jenkins on their roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HigSkin Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Wonder if he's killing time waiting for the Pats to call or looking for a little revenge on the Hawks. No Skins visit. I don't think anyone believed Bree would be back.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWJ Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Glad that the Skins are not pursuing Sherman. Glad they are letting Breeland test the market. Great CBs in this draft and maybe HB becomes a Redskin. Would be a much better upgrade over Breeland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixcuincle Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Matthieu is 25 years old. He has a record of success in this league. Spare me the injury rhetoric. He played every game last year. He didn't have any significant decline in stats. He is still good. You would be insane not to offer him a multi million dollar contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Funny Allen Robinson heard the Cooley film review. I listened to it too -- in short Cooley gushed about Robinson as a true #1 guy. For me its Richardson or Robinson at WR. Richardson if there are serious red flags about Robinson health post ACL surgery. Robinson if the Redskins think his health is clear.

RWJ Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Love the post SIP about Robinson/Richardson. IMO, we MUST come away with one of the two on a multi year deal, no one year rentals.

actorguy1 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 To all the cap wizards. Could the Redskins sign Allen Robinson, Sheldon Richardson and resign Zach Brown to long term deals and still have enough for draft picks, and in season flexibility?

I am not a cap wizard but yeah if its just though 3 guys I think so. They have if I recall 30 million and change to play with. Typically, I think you have to hold back about 5-6 million? They have to keep each guy under 10 million. When they signed Norman they staggered his contract where the salary escalated in year 2. You can always do that there On another note looks like Cleveland still trading, traded Shelton to NE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could the Redskins sign Allen Robinson, Sheldon Richardson and resign Zach Brown to long term deals and still have enough for draft picks, and in season flexibility? Yeah, on backloaded deals, sure. But it wouldn't leave much for anyone else (Murphy, Galette, etc.). Robinson likely $10-11m/yr Richardson likely $8-9m/yr Brown likely $7m/yr Cap hits likely $8 for ARob, $7 for Richardson and $6 for Brown. So right there you've got $21m tied up of your $30m cap space, leaving you with $9m for draft picks and in-season acquisitions, which you want about $8-10m for. Cut Ziggy Hood, and you're freeing up $1m, too. But then you go into the draft needing to get a RB and LG and probably a pass-rusher in the mid-rounds to bolster the depth since you're likely losing Galette and Murphy. Of course, you can make anything work and we could do some restructures to free up space, but getting those 3 guys will eat up most of your cap, even with backloaded deals. this year and next year we don't have a TON of cap space ... but we free up a lot in 2020 ... so you could have 3rd year escalators but likely not 2nd year ones.

The difficulty is if someone like Allen Robinson is only going to get a one year deal to prove his fitness...or he only wants a one year deal in the hope he can cash in next. He may get 12/14 mil p/y now, but the top WR contracts are dropping in at 16/18mil p/y. We can't have any one year rentals at those kind of levels.
