Reed Doughty broke bone in hand

Redskins free agent possibilities « DC Pro Sports Report (http://dcprosportsreport.com/2010/06/04/redskins-free-agent-possibilities/)
S Oshiomogho Atogwe — Definitely the best free agent on the market, Atogwe was cut loose by the Rams — even though he is clearly their best defensive player — because they don’t want to meet his sky-high asking price. The price tag has also scared the Lions off, though they want him badly and are watching carefully to see if Atogwe adjusts his bargaining positions. Atogwe would fill a need for the Redskins, who have had huge problems at safety ever since Sean Taylor died. The Redskins are reportedly interested, but, like the Lions, not interested at Atogwe’s current price. Even Dan Snyder has his spending limits and Atogwe has apparently found it. He’s a big-time playmaker, but can the Redskins keep spending huge money on safeties?


Love Reed, but now's a great time to get OJ. Not sure why we're loading up on old RB's..

I have to agee. It is an uncapped year and we need a stud FS. Why have we not signed OJ? This is a no brianer. WTF

Considering Haslett knows Atogwe pretty well, the fact that we're not interested says a lot. He's not worth the price.

Yes, but next year will most likely come with a cap. A hard cap such as the one employed by the NFL is imperative not only in terms of parity but long term financial stability. I mean heck, the hard cap is the main reason Ted Leonis is able to say the NHL is more financially stable than the NBA with a straight face. I personally doubt the owners will be stupid enough to go back to the old system.

Don't worry, it doesn't hurt. Even with a broken hand, RD is ten times better than the grilled cheese sandwich.
