Redskins Free Agents

You say there is no big market for him but in the same breath say he is a top ten TE????? In league were the TE position is at all time high.

Come on Bro.

well coming off a achilles injury with a deep group of TEs on the market is why I said that...here is how walterfootball rates the TE: WalterFootball.com: 2013 NFL Free Agents - Tight Ends (http://walterfootball.com/freeagents2013TE.php) or 2013 NFL free agents: Top tight ends available - SBNation.com (http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2013/2/16/3857330/2013-nfl-free-agents-top-tight-ends)

I think we will have the advantage signing him.

Also there is the "puff puff pass" factor. Other top TE's don't have two strikes already.

Fair enough i forgot about his drug issue

Here comes the black cloud of capgate.

Great special teams player, and back up inside linebacker....whats the market for those type of players?

Apparently a significant amount more than what we offered him. I'd love to know what the offer was. He said he'd give the Skins a discount if it was close but that didn't appear to be the case this time.

Well there is only one way to find out. Not impressed going to the media like that. Im more interested what other teams would offer, I dont think its that big.

We cant afford to dick around with guys like this this year.
Hes gotta give us a deal or he can shuffle off to Buffalo.

I wouldn't go full on honey badger just yet. (No Mathieu pun intended) The man said he would take less to stay, but for all we know we offered him the vet minimum. Need to wait until the numbers become available to pass judgement. I wouldn't want to play for the vet min either if I just went to the pro bowl.

Alexander's last deal was 3 years 3.8 million. For a special teams ace/backup LB turning 30 this year I wouldn't offer him more than 1.5/yr at the most.
