2009 Free Agents

They franchised him last year and he has said he wants to try the open market.

Gross is the only FA pickup I'd want.

Rypper - unless they agreed in the one year contract extension that the Panthers would not place the franchise tag on him this year I thought the Panthers have this option. does anyone know if this was a stipulation in the one year extension Gross signed ladt year?

I have a bad feeling that we are not smart enough to sign Lechler. Punter is not a sexxy enough position to get Snyderatto's free agency dollars. I really hope I am wrong...

I'm really starting to think that Haynesworth or Peppers will be a Redskin. One of them is about to get PAID big time by Snyder

I personally think picking up one of these studs would put our good defense over the top and give us an elite defense. The question is which would you guys prefer?? Both around the same age Peppers 28 and Hayneworth 27

I would say Peppers...he had a down year last year, but has bounced nicely. Unlike Haynesworth, I think Peppers has been a bit under the radar, and I do like the fact that Peppers has been pretty consistent (save for last year), unlike Haynesworth. Both Carter and Taylor are in their 30s, and having Peppers along with Taylor or Carter would give us some time to develop a young DE (hopefully through the draft).

I still think that we need a better DT, however I think Haynesworth has higher risk of becoming a bust than Peppers; furthermore, there are a few character issues with Haynesworth.

Definately Peppers, Haynesworth seems more like one of the criminals that play for Dallas.

My compliments to the OP; your post contains a wealth of info that, while readily available to any who care to look, nonetheless must have taken a good chunk of time to put together.

Thank you brother. :)

I think we could pick up a decent DT to bring into the Montgomery/Golston competition, and bring Peppers as the big free agent sign. Here are some DTs that are going to be free agents:

Rocky Bernard, Seattle
Jonathan Babineaux, Atlanta
Jovan Haye, Tampa

Rocky Bernard had put up some good stats (better than any of our DTs), and I wonder if the Zorn-Seattle connection would come into play here. I think Babineaux and Haye had good stats too.

what about lb? That has to be addressed if we cut ties with marcus washington? do we have enough money to sign vilma or dansby also?

I would go with Dansby, Vilma is a MLB and will most likely command more money on the market than Dansby.
