2012 Redskins Free Agency (and Trades) Tracker (Chapter III)

Pats also had Grant and Addai visit. I can say with 98.375% confidence we're bringing back Hightower and adding Owen Schmitt.

Well...Schmitt's headed west to Oakland it seems

I knew all along that Hightower would re-sign with the Redskins. For a moment I knew that there was a chance that he would join New England. But the Patriots don't suit him like the Redskins do.

Kinda of topic, I don't know how many of you have apps on your phone or iPod that gives you Redskins news but I do and what I'm finding I hate most getting info on players that are no longer Skins. Keep getting McNabb news, Beck news, Stallworth news. Mon got article about Stallworth glad to be back with the Pats so he can get a Ring, and today another article. Who the F cares?

The same thing with any tweet apps. Stallworth, Stallworth, Stallworth, Pats, Pats, Pats. Look I'm happy if he's happy now STFU. Besides I thought Hoody didn't like players giving interviews.

What happened with Owen? Was it another Eddie Royal signing (meaning it didn't really happen)??

This tweet was from one of the ES insiders.

Schmitt wanting a lil more then skins willing to offer, guat a contract aint our game right now..waiting game goes on


So it looks like more coin was offered, or more guaranteed coin at least.

That makes sense. I think if the Redskins had been serious about offering him a guaranteed contract they would have jumped on it earlier. Good for Morris I suppose

We don't need Schmitt. Darrel Young is a great starting FB for us and we now have a backup with that rookie and it appears Cooley also.

If they want to be here they will be here, if they don't then Oh! Well! IMO.

I'm actually glad we don't have another FB on the roster. I think Cooley can find a niche there as well as Morris assuming our backfield is too crowded with Hightower, Helu and Royster.

I remember Cooley's first year, he was listed as a RB on fantasy games, later a RB/TE.

I also enjoyed having Colston as a TE with WR stats his rookie year. Never figured that one out though.
