Update: Redskins Add S Tanard Jackson and Madieu Williams and CB Leigh Torrence

Note the updated thread title

I don't know if I want another player that has a history or drug-related suspension or another safety with health concerns.

I know you didn't want him, but we sure as hell got him lol. For better or worse he's ours now. We'll see where this goes though, especially with his questionable history.

Nice, I thought the boat had sailed on him but I'm glad that at the very least we are adding multiple options/possibilities at safety.

Great signing!!!! I feel a little better about our secondary

I like the low-risk, but potential high-yield signing.

nice pick up. our safety play should be significantly improved this year which is going to be a major upgrade on the defense. Good job by the FO in that department

I LOVE the signing of Tanard Jackson. I'd like to know what his contract and cap figures are like though. If we managed to give him the same sort of cheap "prove yourself" contract that we wanted to give Landry then i say it's a great addition. He very well could easily enter the 2012 season as a starter.

great great pickup, i really like it. i like this signing the best this offseason other than Garcon and Morgan. I think this move can really pay off, i think our starters at safety will be Jackson at free and merriweather at strong.

Safe to say we can cross out FS off our list of draft needs (at least this year)... You guys agree?

Well I am sure Raheem Morris had a lot of input and he should know Jackson better than anyone. I just hope the team's coaching leadership does a good job at keeping order inside and outside the locker room, since now we have two starters and a potential starter with drug-related suspensions.

I think the more reason why we need Fletcher's leadership. And I am glad to hear that the team is pushing to sign him before Monday. I am also glad the team is bringing safeties to compete, given that I see this as the team's #1 need right now.
