RWJ Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 9 hours ago, OVCChairman said: Me too, but reports are that he wants to hit free agency before he makes any deal to be anywhere. Also seen cap ramifications regarding the signing bonus with signing him prior to the start of the new league year. I think IF the Skins offered him a salary averaging 8 mill a year for 4 years with 18 mill guaranteed he's sign with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooseneck Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Foster, very good signing at a great price. though I hate to, probably need to give Allen credit on this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC9 Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 15 hours ago, method man said: If we can't resign ZB, is Ryan Anderson the guy who should be next to Foster? He's blocked today by a host of rush guys at the OLB spot I know that was talked about a few times this past season and he was taking reps there. Anderson is an effort guy/high-IQ guy. I'm expecting him to take a big leap this next year wherever he plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's blocked today by a host of rush guys at the OLB spot I've seen some pre-draft talk of Anderson could convert to MLB but don't recall ever hearing the coaches mention the possibility. The one thing I wonder about that was one of the knocks on him for edge rusher is lack of speed and agility -- wouldn't that be exposed even more at MLB? Chris Russell was going on yesterday saying from what he's heard he's thinking Zach Brown won't be back. Now Tandler kicking in http://www.nbcsports.com/washington/redskins/need-know-redskins-week-was-qb-shopping-browns-status?utm_content=bufferefe68&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer Will Zach Brown stay with the Redskins or go? I’m not sure if the Redskins will be able to re-sign Brown. I wouldn’t call him a player the team absolutely must sign but if they don’t bring him back they need someone who can have the same impact that Brown had on the defense. Whether that means drafting Roquan Smith or Tremaine Edmunds or finding a free agent with Brown’s sideline-to-sideline impact they can’t simply let him walk without coming up with a quality alternative. If they don’t, the defense, which actually did improve some last year, is likely to slide back downhill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Cousins goes elsewhere then definitely get Landry, a top OG, and the D pieces desired. We could draft a QB round 1 then, like Mason Rudolph, who would come in to a really good situation with what should be a top 10 D and an offense with plenty of weapons.

The problem is that he’s been plugged in as a starter. And the Skins haven’t prioritized getting somebody more talented who CAN beat him out. To me, he is the absolute personification of the complete dysfunction of the FO. I have nothing against Grant. Great 4th or 5th guy. But our FO plugged him in as a starter last year. And “we’re going to do everything we can to bring him back.” Thats a dumb statement to begin with for a guy who should be competing for a roster spot.

I don’t care what they do at ILB as long as whoever they get has physical talent and isn’t just Will Compton II. If they get a “super smart effort guy” they’re going to struggle up the middle... again. If they choose to go a different direction than Brown because they don’t believe he can improve in coverage, I can live with that as long as plan B isn’t obviously dumb.

OVCChairman Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Makes you wonder how they really feel about Spaight... Heard multiple people comment about how fast our ILBs are when it was Brown / Spaight in the middle. You wonder if they're leaning toward a Foster @ Mike with Spaight @ Moe, and are willing to let Brown play hardball knowing that he's a want and not a 'need' in their opinion. If they go that route, we'd be looking at Foster / Spaight staring with Vigil backing up... i'd have to imagine we would have to draft someone with hopes that they would take over for Foster after his 2 year deal runs out? Not saying that is the move I would make, but the thought popped into my head this afternoon the more I hear smoke that Brown wants to test his value.

markmills67 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Beau Allen the Eagle's NT could be an under the radar signing for us. $3/4m a year sounds good if you don't resign Hood, it's only a couple of million more cap for a younger and more hungrier player. I would also draft Vita Vea in 1st round as well unless we don't re-sign Cousin's then it might be QB. HTTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our starters last season going in were Pryor, Doctson and Crowder That’s factually incorrect. Pryorvwas signed as an insurance policy to Doctson and they both played the X position. Grant was starter at Y, Crowder Z. And at times Crowder might play Y. Gruden said this in a presser when he was pressed why Doctson and Pryor weren’t splitting time. THE PLAN was Doctson/Pryor on one side, Grant on the other, and Crowder in the slot. I know this because Gruden said it. It it was then and remains now a dumb plan. And more than that, an obviously dumb plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinny21 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I'm still baffled about how Quick was (not) used. How does a guy that supposedly had the best camp get so few opportunities (and seemed to play pretty well when he did) with a receiving corp as lacking as ours was last year?
