2009 Free Agents

Hey it looks like Ray Willis (Seahawks) is the best RT left in FA. Anybody know his history and how much it will likely cost to sign him? I notice he's very young at 27 too so this could be a longterm guy for us.

If we sign anyone from the Seahawks it should be Maurice Morris. A vastly underrated running back, this guy knows Z's offense and is a complete player. Averaged 5+yards per clip after Shaun Alexander left. Would be a great compliment to Portis and might come on the cheap.

I got this from Redskins.com I think OT is our most important need to fill. I also feel strongly about obtaining OT through the Draft. I would love to be lucky enough to get Eugene Monroe.


Three Offensive Tackles Available In NFL Draft
As of Feb. 20, 2009; names listed are in no particular order

-- Andre Smith, Alabama: Smith stands at 6-4 in height and his weight alternates between 330-340 pounds. His forte is run blocking, so he may need some work on pass protection skills.

-- Eugene Monroe, Virginia: At 6-6 and 315 pounds, Monroe was a three-year starter for the Cavaliers. He backed up D’Brickashaw Ferguson as a freshman and played alongside Brandon Albert as a sophomore and junior.

-- Michael Oher, Mississippi: The 6-5, 315-pound prospect was a four-year starter at Ole Miss. He was the subject of a 2006 book called “The Ballad of Big Mike,” about his life growing up in Memphis

Sorry, just realized I posted this in the wrong thread.


Roster Review: Offensive Tackles (http://www.redskins.com/gen/articles/Roster_Review__Offensive_Tackles_3753.jsp)

Actually khalif barnes is a free agent so ray willis isn't the only UFA Tackle available... Also donald Penn the LT of the Bucs is a RFA, and was the only LT last year who didn't allow a demarcus ware sack... And jason brown would be a great huge pick up for us, for many reasons, simply because he can play guard or center, and if he is a center then we can cut rabach trade down in the draft, get Eben britton in the late first and get maybe a guard or DE in the second... If brown plays guard, the you let Kendall go cut Jansen and draft mack later in the first or stay where we are and draft an Oher

Crowell is pretty good. He plays strong side but he missed last year with an injury and had knee surgery. He's only 27 and could be a good value for someone willing to take a chance.
The Redskins love players that are recovering from injuries. We are in need of a cheap strongside linebacker. I think this sounds like a guy we will go after.

Hey bro how come you're not listing Jason Smith, who is rising faster than the national debt at this point?

... for what it's worth I think only Oher will be available @ 13 though the way Andre Smith is falling maybe he'll be there too. Both guys will work fine @ RT IMO but i couldn't really say who is better.

Sage to the Vikings?

That would make sense. He's basically a younger version of Frerotte. He would fit in well for them I think. The sooner they realize T.Jackson is probably not an NFL starter, the better off they will be. If they develop a consistent passing threat, they are a contender. They've got everything else.

Kwame Harris is now on the market

He's gigantic at 6-7 320, and a smart dude from what I understand. Plus he's only 26. He's worth a look for sure.

worth a look, but he's not really going to blow anyone away with talent.
