That is what I said. Sign him to a contract that is loaded with incentives only if he passes a physical. I have heard that he is way ahead of schedule if that means anything.

Lavar tends to wander a bit. But all I know was his last year here, when he was on the field, he was making a difference. He was getting the ball carrier on the ground all by himself. So if he can do that then he's better than Marshall and Holdman. However I'm not sure how that would impact Rocky since they play the same position. So it's probably not going to happen.

Why put incentives in there? He will be lucky to make a roster next year. Anyone who gives him a shot is doing him a favor.

He shouldn't have burnt this bridge before he left. He never looked right in Blue.

I am more interested in Petigout.

Well he did burn his bridges. That is true.

Petigout is a good starting LT and will not accept a backup role or backup pay. Thus, he is not in the Redskins plans.

I'm going to eat crow now. ESPN is reporting that Arrington, Carlos Emmons, and Luke Petigout have all been released. That means that the Giants enter the offseason without two starting OLBs, a starting LT, a starting HB, or anyone of note at DT. Wow, and I thought we had holes.

ESPN.com - NFL - Giants shake up roster, release Arrington, two starters (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2763433)

The Giants have a GM so I'm sure they have a plan in place. They are not as poorly run as we are. But they have some work to do.

Thanks for the link.

As for bringing LaVar back - even for a try-out - Dear Lord!!!

Will the LaVar worshippers ever stop? He had a shot, blew it and then showed his true colors (Q: "Who is the worst coach you ever played for?" A: "Joe Gibbs" (I saw the clip - he didn't hesitate even a beat before saying it)). LaVar hates the Skins and they probly don't like him all that much either. Why bring back the drama queen?

In one sense, both LaVar and Ramsey were two of kind - we Skins fans held them in much higher esteem then the rest of the league.

Also, the Petitgout cut is good for us even if we don't sign him. Todd Wade did a fine job filling in - the more tackles on the market, however, the cheaper he becomes for us to resign.

I agree, put a fork in Lavar he's done! Todd Wade did do a heck of a job.

What if we brought Back Lavar, and Smoot. We would look just like the Eagles. Let out guys go, they fail, bring them back on the cheap side.

Lavar is no longer talented. The giants cut him for a reason...

He's an over-zealous washed out linebacker who's had his shmorgusboard of physically debilitating injuries. He won't ever have a season close to those in his prime and has lost several steps.

I pray we don't get him.

Smoot is over-rated... but he's probably better than alot that's out there. We're really in bad shape on defense, and this has to be a very smart off-season.

No more Archuletta-esque moves. I'm hoping we trade down and fill as many holes as possible, because there are plenty of them.
