Redskins sign DE Stephen Bowen

I'd rather pay Bowen than AH.

Gotta pay a little more to pry away a guy that the Cowboys really wanted to keep.

I think not. You don't play those games. Now who's laughing?

Love this better than Jenkins.. Bowen is younger and hungry

Agreed. The more I read about him the better I like it.

eh?

No they did not over pay. He is young and on the upswing in his career. Jenkins has been hurt on and off in his career and still wanted a pay day.

why is everyone saying this? he's 27 and hasn't really done anything. good players hit their stride in year 2 or 3. don't like this one at all.

Save this comment because by halfway through this season trust me you will eat them

I hope you're right cause that's a lot of dough for a career back up.

And I thought bolstering the D-line would make people happy.

I can't wait to see the joy when we start signing some O-lineman.

I like the Cofield move but not sure about a career back up.

I think so. I shoot bottle rockets. The Hooters are crying.

... I think people's brains are starting to short circuit. It's like the guy dying of starvation who is suddenly given all the food he can eat.

Read up on some of the articles about him. The Cowboys were really counting on keeping him and he was going to be taking on a bigger role this year.

Would we have been better off caving in to C. Jenkins' last minute demands for even more $$?

The Bowen signing is a bit of a catch 22 from my perspective. On one hand people say, well the Redskins reached a little and overpaid this guy because he hasn't done anything. But on the other hand had Bowen played more snaps in Dallas, his stats would have been more reflective of his perceived value. So now you have to up the ante because this guy is on everyone's radar.

All I'm saying is if he turns out to be who we think he is (channelling Denny Green), then this could have been a steal for what we paid. And if he doesn't, then hey we missed this one. But I'm willing to bet he'll live up to his contract more than he won't instead of turning out to be a bust. God willing.
