Drafting a safety.

Ryan Clark might come available.

That's the optimal situation. I think he's under contract which might command some kind of trade. :mad:

He lost his starting job this year so he could be cut.

Well its not like he would go for anymore than a late round pick, and I'm fine trading a 6th or 7th away for Clark.

Ryan Clark might come available.

If Clark is let go by the Steelers, could there be a bigger no-brainer in the world?

Bottom line: he worked well with ST, they communicated well, and they got results. He knows how we do things. F Ken Hamlin, F drafting somebody, F paying anybody a lot of money... if Clark is available, he should be our #1 target, hands down.

AA and Taylor will be starting for Skins next year. We need to draft a stud D lineman, CB, or LB with the 6th pick. Hamlin isn't the answer.....

Ryan Clark isn't the answer either. Who was saying a word about him last year? Everyone wants to say he was awesome b/c the washingtonpost claims he was Taylor's only friend on the team. This is the NFL, if Taylor's play is impacted dramtically by having a friend on the team we're in trouble. Clark is a back up at best. We don't need to bring him back at all.

You know why Taylor had a sub-par year for his standards? NO SACKS UP FRONT!!!!! How many times did you see him chasing a running back who wasa not touched by a D lineman or LB????

We don't need to draft a safety, we're fine at that position.

AA will be starting for the Skins next year?

Yes! His Cap # is too large to part ways with him. The Defense as a whole had one of the worst years in Redskins history. AA will be back in the starting lineup next year. 100% guaranteed.

Sorry but you're dead wrong. If he's cut after June 1 we would save about $600k this year with approx. $7M hitting us in dead cap next year.

It can be done very easily.

I'm wrong!!???

What's the better option:

1) Maximizing AA for what the entire coaching staff saw as a major talent for our secondary. Wiping the slate clean and figuring out how best to utilize his talents with Taylor. AA could be a great force for our team next year.

or

2) Cutting him after June 1st. Left with another void to fill with another FREE AGENT. Eating 7million in dead cap the following year.

The decision looks like an easy one if you're a Redskins Defensive Coach.

I like Ryan Clark, but i don't think that he is neccessarily the answer. If he is cut, sure go for it, what can it hurt?

I'm more for drafting a cb, d-lineman, depending what we do w/ SS.
