I hope so. And I hope Saunders stays too.
I think this signing is a great move, more for the signal that it sends than anything else. Aside from Samuels and Jansen, we haven't kept any of our drafted players. Betts gets it, he works hard, and he seems to appreciate being a Redskin. I'm glad the Skins finally showed their appreciation to one of their own.

I like that Betts will be staying. I look for a big game on sunday.
Now lets re-sign Dock!

The post just reported that he signed..
Betts Signs Contract Extension - washingtonpost.com (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/12/08/AR2006120800804.html)
I really applaud the move, and I hope we'll move to re-sign some other guys too by the end of the season like Dockery.
Rumors are that Betts will get a bonus of about $6M or $7M.

Ditto. I'm worried that Dock wants to test the market. What do you guys think he's worth? I think he'll want a 10mil + signing bonus.
Wish we could give him AA's contract & send AA back out west somewhere.

why don't we just move AA to Guard when Dockery leaves, that move might be the one that puts us over the top.

Im glad we stayed in house. To me Betts has been one of our core guys, even though he doesn't start. Im happy we signed him, he earned it

I think Dockery will come at a fair price.
I have to admit I was down on him earlier but in recent weeks he's played very well and most of all I'd like to see us reward our own guys for once.
