I really cant take it anymore, look at it like this, we had Dock last year and we were still a 5-11 team, why does anybody think Dock will single handidly change this, for christ sakes hes a guard, without a doubt the easiest position to replace on an NFL team. We need to spend the money on our defense, if we sign Dock back, then theres no Fletcher, no Smoot, and probably no Travis Fisher. That would leave us with no depth and no upgrades on defense, with that said, we would have one guard with a hell of a pay check and we would still have a horrible defense. Unless Dock can play DT or De or even MLB, well then i say good riddance

what he said.

No, is the only answer to this question. But that is not to say that the Redskins get a pass here...they should have acted sooner to lock him up. He would have signed for a more reasonable number months ago. Even Dock himself was floored at what Buffalo offered him.

how reasonable? i heard they tried 4mill per and that wasn't enough for him... he WANTED to be a FA. unless the skins floored him 6 games into the season (when his track record was mainly that of being lazy), he was going to wait it out. It's kinda hard to blame the skins for not trying to overpay someone who made it clear he only cared about cashing out as far back as LAST offseason.

I think the standard Redskins Free agency deal of 10 mil gaurenteed and 5 or 7 years would have gotten it done mid way through last season. The problem the skins always have with reuping their own players before they become free agents is that they never have any cap room left during the season to do it. They always need to rescructure 2 other players before they can resign one. That's why alot of their top players end up going to free agency. When the skins resign one of their own players to an extension it usually ends up being when they have multiple years on the current deal and as a result the skins usually end up with cap relief in the short term.

I disagree. If he chose to stay here for 4 million a year you could say he was loyal. I would say he was an idiot. You can't ever blame someone for leaving for that type of money.

You didn't hear him badmouthing the organization before he left like Lavar did and I know a lot of people would take Lavar back tomorrow.

I wish him the best of luck in Buffalo, he will need it.
