Clemons or Arrington?

Don't get me worng I really like Arrington and I do think he is willing to restructure his contract, but if the Redskins do part ways with LaVar I would really like to see what Chris Clemons is able to do he played really well as a 3rd down LB until he got put on IR he recorded 3 sacks in limited play as opposed to Arrington's 0 sacks in a starting role. I would like to see Arrington stay and start again for us but if not I say Clemons should get the job.

It increasingly sounds like Lavar will stay. I think if he doesn't lose some weight, one of these young guys is going to take his job anyway. Riggins had my back on Redskins Report saying that L.A. looked like he had swallowed 20 lbs of buckshot when he was returning that int. against Tampa. A buddy of mine says that since his knee injury, Lavar runs like Peggy Bundy. I agree.

And now let the Lavar boosting begin:

I think that everyone agrees that Arrington has not been the same physically since the injury. However, the general rule that the analysts always talk about is that major knee injuries take two years to recover from. It would be crushing to see Lavar go somewhere else and return to pro-bowl form.

Not that I liked Trotter at all but it bothers me that he has had two straight pro-bowl years for a division rival because the skins were impatient.

Arrington at the end of the season was starting to fit more in the system and would be even greater in his second year under the same coordinator. I hope he is able to stay.

Didn't Edgerrin James have a knee injury? It took him a couple of full years to get back into form. I do hope he comes back next year.

Lavar didn't reconstructive knee surgery there is a difference.

Lavar is a waste of money, we could get a LB to back up Clemons later in the draft.

I also agree restructure his Roster Bonus due to him...helping us with Cap and keeping a HUNGRY, still young, ALL-PRO LB...that is better then any LB in FA. I also believe with his new found attitude and a full offseason with GW we will see Lavar more on 3rd downs.

I would say that there is about a 50% chance that we get rid of LaVar to create room in the salary cap. So if LaVar goes would you guys rather have Chris Clemons replace him or would you rather sign a proven LB? Clemons was put on injured reserve this year about 9 games into the season he has a lot of potential and I know GW loves him. I really like LaVar but if he doesn't restructure his contract I can't see him staying here, and his backup last season was Warrick Holdman who is a free agent so if LaVar left I think Clemons would be next in line he had 3 sacks this year and he usually comes in as a third down LB. I woould Personally like to see Chris Clemons start if LaVar leaves.

Why do all that.....Mc Cune....is a up and comer

I really hope LaVar does stay because he finished the year really well after all the drama. But if he gets cut, we can't rely on Clemons because he's coming off an injury so we might have to look at a vet. There is the option to put McCune in somewhere, but he's way behind Holdman in understanding the system, having been on the practice squad. I like Clemons but haven't seen enough production to hand him the job just yet. LaVar is a better option if we can keep him, as I think he is better than any free agent OLBs out there, and now he and Marcus Washington had a great December and January.

I like McCune, but I believe he is being groomed as Marshall's replacment after next year...and unfortunatley Holdman is a FA...I liked him for depth..so far we've been lucky that Washington has stayed healthy, so we've only needed a backup for Lavar.
