Dre' Bly wants to be a Skin? That's What I Hear

Here's a question who's going to be our starting CB's this year? I personally would like to see Fred Smoot, Carlos Rogers as the starters, because they're both fairly young, and if they can develop together I think they could become a premier CB tandem. Now the other question is if we keep Springs where do you think he will fit in? If we get Dre' Bly I think it will be obvious that he is our #1 CB so who is the odd man out then Rogers or Smoot?
I hope we make a decision on this Bly/ Springs trade soon so we can sort all this out.

smoot is a good #2 corner, not a #1. bly/springs are #1s (springs is better when completely healthy, bly misses less games). rodgers would clearly be the nickel back. he's a good #3, and on his best games he's worth starting, but last year he only had 2 good games and a ton of crappy ones, so until he figures it out, i wouldn't start him.

I agree with you, but then what does that say about Carlos? I mean we drafted this guy with our 9th pick, and he has only been in the leauge two years, granted he struggled last year but that doesn't mean he is not going to turn out to be a good starter for us. I personally think demoting Carlos Rogers to #3 CB is a very bad decision, and will hinder his development.

sniff sniff somebody smells what i have been stepping in for the last few days now.

carlos isnt what he should be or what we thought he would be.

I would love to add Bly to the mix because of his playmaking ability - he can create turnovers and that is what the skins struggled to do last year. I don't know if he's as good a cover corner as Springs, I think they are pretty close, but Dre makes plays and thats what this defense needs.

nickel backs play a LOT here. I don't think it'll be that bad, an we could see more redskin victories that way, so i'm all for it.

agreed... if carlos rogers is our nickelback, we're in good shape.

We're in Great shape!

Here is something that I got off nfl.com. Dude is like 5'9"..... That is kinda short, and I didn't see alot of tackles either. But, the upside is that he can catch the INT. What we need is Springs to be a company guy, and Rodgers needs to play tighter on the receivers and we will be fine at corner.

God we need a GM sooooooooooo bad it's not even funny. Actually it is funny at this point.

Can someone tell me why we want Dre Bly? Bad attitude and he wants a new contract. He's already getting paid 4.3 million and wants a new deal? Why? Plus the guy is already crying like a little bitch because Marineli traded his ass to Denver. And if he comes here guess what? We are going to give another old guy a new deal. I'd rather pay Springs the 6.8 million and go with someone who is at least respected in the locker room and doesn't have a crappy non winning attitude.
