I don't get why people get so upset over these moves. We have a 90 man roster right now, just because we signed them doesn't mean they'll make it out of preseason. A little roster competition never hurt anyone, especially in a known area of weakness.

As I've said before, I don't mind having a camp competition for the safety position.

Here's what we have now
FS: M. Williams, C. Griffin, (Possibly T. Jackson)
SS: Meriweather, Doughty, Gomes
I'm hoping we still pursue T. Jackson despite signing Williams... Now let's assume we sign T. Jackson as well; do we still draft a FS? (I say No)
I hope we bring in T Jax and I hope spend a draft pick at either Safety position.
People forget our safety play last year was maybe worst league or at least bottom 3 worst in the league. We need a complete 180 so the more bodies in camp the better. We need mass improvement at that position.

I just saw on Twitter that the Redskins are going to sign Leigh Torrence (https://twitter.com/#!/Redskins/status/189805379675373568). Did I miss something??

I was told the same thing this morning. Thought it was a joke. Maybe it's not
Good for him. Good guy

Are we desperate for CB's? Hopefully he's better now than during his first stint with us. You could've put a paraplegic back there and he would've had a better chance at the ball than Torrence.

Gives us some flexibility. He's a decent vet.

That's a sad group...sad, sad, sad. I think it was another thread someone said they expect our defense to take a step backward this year. Without a unforeseen infusion of legit talent at safety it's pretty plausible.

Well our other options would have been Landry with a big health question mark and an aging Atogwe.
