Smoot, any idea what the hold up is with signing Hunter?
I'm not sure how strong the interest truly is from the Skins' side

I'm not sure how strong the interest truly is from the Skins' side SFREDSKIN 03-04-2009, 02:02 PM Why should a punter be found at low cost? and I don't think many cowboys fans would say they were ok with Paulescu after the Steelers game where special teams lost it for them. If we are going to have brutal slugfests every game(and in our division, I think that is a guarantee in atleast 6 of the games), then we ought to have a weapon that can pin back the opponent every time we have to punt. I don't think Hunter is asking for a huge deal, I honestly don't know, but any reasonable deal to lock this guy up ought to be made sooner rather than later. What I meant is: the other positions take priority over a P. I would much rather address the other positions first, I agree that having a good P is necessary, but they can be found on the cheap, other teams do it, we just happen to have a hard time finding one whether through the draft or FA.

Funny how so many people picked punter when we don't have one now. Wasn't Plack cut? I guess Randel El can start punting instead of being on the other end of the kicks. :D CRedskinsRule 03-04-2009, 02:23 PM I'm not sure how strong the interest truly is from the Skins' side Ya know, that's probably the most discouraging thing I have heard said about the FO. I am a big supporter of them in general, but if they went out and used a draft pick, and it was a bust, the next way to get one is to find one who is a known commodity. C'est la vie. roth74va 03-04-2009, 02:24 PM Funny how so many people picked punter when we don't have one now. Wasn't Plack cut? Zac Atterberry..........whoever he is, lol.

Not speaking on behalf of the Redskins here, but some of the concerns I've heard about Smith are his age and the fact that he's punted half his games in a dome each year throughout his career. GMScud 03-04-2009, 02:28 PM Using your requirements, I said O-line (even it will kill us), because: 1) we know we can get a first-class punter in H. Smith - that's the one FA pick up 2) per all the threads and mock drafts the stud OT's will be gone at 13, and we don't move back because you said no additional picks so we will have to get a LB(Rey) or DE(Orakpu) in the 1st to have a good draft 3) Without Taylor AND Evans, we have to fill the DE in the draft somehow. 4) that leaves OL odd man out playing with an average rightside and above average left if Samuels stays healthy. Now if we alter the rule and make a 2nd FA pickup(which is possible) and get a decent LB/DE then OT can be addressed this year as well. I agree with this completely. I would say punter, but we I don't think we currently have one on the roster, so it's pretty mandatory that we pick one up. Given our current state at the LB position (I mean right now, today), we won't function properly on D without adding OLB help. Like CRedskins said, no Evans or Taylor leaves us in a bind at DE. Daniels will probably be back, but who knows how effective he can be given age/injuries. Chris Wilson is a small, situtaitonal pass rusher, and Rob Jackson didn't even see the field last year. If Carter and/or Daniels missed even 1 game with injury, we'd be in trouble. So I guess O-line it is. SmootSmack 03-04-2009, 02:31 PM I agree with this completely.

GMScud 03-04-2009, 02:34 PM I have a feeling OL is what it might be. Hopefully we find a way to address all four positions. I'll be really annoyed if we don't draft an O-lineman. |
