Bacon Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 So we've paid for 3 years of guaranteed Alex Smith (!!!!)...what are the odds that we get anything back for him going into year 4? Even a ham sammich? Because hopefully we have someone behind him that's ready to go by then. Honestly, with his injury history and tendency to scramble, I would be surprised if he completed two full seasons, especially at his age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 Scot tweet. Right on queue........... Maybe the team is confident that Holsey will progress well. I remember Fuller having ups and downs his rookie year before taking a big step this past year. Can't say that for Holsey this past year (his rookie year), though I checked out around the halfway mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavar1156 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 This is so bad. We should have gave them Norman. F Bruce Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playaction2Sanders Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Washington did stick it to the rest of the league though who are looking at Cousins. If Smith is getting 71 million guaranteed, imagine what they're going to have to pay for Kirk.. Or of course that team could find a way to sign him for less guaranteed and just stick it to us, which I doubt would happen.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just had RG3's career dangled in front of our faces, only to have a competent QB come in and show us an air raid we haven't seen in this franchises history be replaced by an aging check down machine, for a draft pick and a stud CB and missing our on Kirk. There is no "old" only the same present existence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a horror show. Allen is ruining what little good is on this roster on his way out the door in 2018 or 2019 when we inevitably go 4-12. Or he'll still be here because he's an unkillable ****roach fiend. That's the frustrating thing. One of the few things I was happy about was we started to seem to have some youth. We had Fuller and Morneau as our potential future replacements for Bash and Norman. But who needs young cheap starting quality guys, we need "lower" priced QBs so we can have money to get older high priced starting quality guys.

TradeTheBeal! Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 It’s time for this fan base to heal. The RG3/Kirk/Shanny chapter is finally closed. I apologize to all fellow ESers I’ve rubbed the wrong way vis a vis this soap opera. I wish Kirk well. I’ll be pulling for him. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Of I was Kendall, I’d be ecstatic. Much better situation for him. Bruce and Jay have no excuses now. (They didn’t really before either, but wherever.) Trading Fulller was just incredibly stupid, but they didn’t want to start over with a rookie, and probably didn’t know if they could get Bridgewater/Keenum, whoever, so they had to trade for a guy. They compounded stupid with stupid. That said, they can make good moves to have a competitive team IF they are smart with their dollars. However if thry honestly think they can line up with the same team with Smith instead of Cousins and win 3-4 more games, they’re wrong. They need to go out and be aggressive in FA. MUCH better skill position players. Better pass rush. Etc. if they’re aggressive, we could get back to 8-8. If not, probably 6-10. Thats where we are.

Hail2theSkins24 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I'm out of here for a while, guys. This franchise has sucked the fan hood out of me. I used to be active and pumped, even during mock draft season. It's finally come to me that this team will never, ever be a contender as long as Dan Snyder as at the top of this organization. That man is a cancer. I wish all of you the best, the passion in the Skins fan base is unmatched. It's sad one man has ruined mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 So the logic for not signing Kirk is that it would hamstring our ability to build the rest of the roster. Okay. So we trade a cheap 3rd round rookie contract and a good, cheap 22 year old CB for a QB who we are paying only $5-6M less....at 34. Anyone talking themselves into this deal after the info about Fuller came out is a ****ing moron and deserves what this team is doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one here would be happy outside of Aaron Rodgers coming here I guess. Fuller is a bit much, but I don't run the team. If I did I wouldn't have Cousins here though. Thats like Stafford, years of 8-8. No thanks. I'd rather the fanbase just not show up and Snyder would move the team and we get a new team after a year off. But it aint happening, so I am hoping for the best. I don't put that much energy into them anymore. Doesn't put money in my pocket, nor take any.

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 To those saying they should have shipped Norman. Most likely a competent organization like KC specifically wanted Fuller because he's cheap and ascending. They probably had no interest in Norman at 15x the salary and approaching the other side of his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
