So whats it gonna be. Last year good on the ends but weak up the middle. This year 100M strong up the middle and weak on the ends. Are they seriously going to let Evans go to SF? We have over 12M in cap room and we are sitting still.
The Skins should be bringing Demetric back ASAP before SF can lay their hands on him. He may not be a great long-term solution but help is needed at LDE and he's the best left out there...plus he is familiar with everyone and everything except for the new number he'll need. I've been looking all day for that "Redskins re-sign Evans" story.
Kendall might still come back but for a lower price than he would have gotten if he hadn't been turned loose to begin with. As pointed out above, he would be great for OL depth in the short term.

I'm hearing that Evans to SF is basically a done deal.

Even if Evans goes to SF, Philip D is still available. I think he has a year or two left. If not there is always our second pick in the draft. But with the money we spared and the availables next year. We will always be in contention.

As unproductive as he was, I think this was a good move. Open up some cap room!

If this is true I think the FO has made a huge blunder. Not that I'm dead set on Evans. I thought it was really dumb to keep Taylor in the first place (said this weeks ago). Then we wait so long to get it right in cutting him that we miss out on Canty (doesn't bother me) and our own guy cuz he gets into serious negotiations w/ another franchise. This is a lousy situation as Evans was probably the best DE talent left in FA.

No doubt Goat. Evans is the best DE in FA. But according to GT we have other plans in the works. He made a good point. We never even offered Evans a contract so we are obviously still not interested in Evans.

I think Goat may be right. On the Skins home site Zorn said flat-out that they want to bring back Evans. It would suck if the FO whiffed simply because they didn't try hard enough or soon enough.

Well get on the phone with his agent and make him an offer FO. There is still time. So go figure that out Lotus. Unless they do something amazingly unexpected here. Im going to be pretty pissed and confused.
Is just me that thought that when Dockery signed Kendall was not in our plans. He's freakin 36 with bad knees, I thought the whole point of signing Dockery was to get younger and replace Kendall. I guess I was wrong
:confused:
One word: depth.
