Official Redskins Free Agency Thread 2013

Play with Brandon Weeden or Robert Griffin? Hmmm.... Tough decision...

I can't see anything other than money and returning to his hometown as being reasons to sign with CLE.

for an extra 1.6MM garaunteed, can you blame him? 1.6MM to a guy like Lorenzo is alot more than 1.6MM to someone like Peyton Manning.

Alexander Says Abruptly Lowered Contract Offer Changed His Mind « CBS DC (http://washington.cbslocal.com/2013/03/13/alexander-says-abruptly-lowered-contract-offer-changed-his-mind/)

This had to do with who signed first.

He continued: “I even asked Bruce why [the offer] changed, and he said, ‘It’s because of the cap,’ and I got emotional, because this is home. I love the fans, I love the team and the coaches and the guys in that locker room, and the city. But, God’s moving me in a different direction, and it’s the Cardinals. Hopefully, I’ll be able to carry over the same type of hard work and play that I had here, and bring it there. But it was definitely hard. It just didn’t add up for me to stay. But I know, in my heart of hearts, if it wasn’t for the cap, I would've been here.”

This is an exert from an article in the Washington Post.

Zo wanted to come back, we wanted him back, the cap penalty cost us and he knows it. No hard feelings and what ever was written before about him being upset with the organization was just looking for press. I wish the guy the best.

So, we've got a new RT: Jeremy Trueblood!

can't be worse than polombus right?

Schefter just posted that there's essentially a bidding war between us and Cleveland for Fred.

I'm nervous.

Hopefully we'll beat them out for Davis like we did for Griffin. New owner though, so we'll see if he's as shy with the trigger as the last guy.

If Cleveland wants him they will get him, they have a lot of cap freedom and are poised to make some big moves.

I know it's early, but i don't like the THOUGHT of Trueblood, Pashos, or Compton starting at RT Wk. 1

Yup. If we lose Fred, its not the worst thing in the world. We had a potent offense without him for much of last year. Given all our other needs, TE is not a position worth breaking the bank for, especially not one coming of a major injury and one mistake away from a 1 year suspension.

We can get buy with paulsen and a cheaper, pass catching TE this year. Next year, we'll have plenty of money to splurge on"non-essential but "nice to have" guys like Davis.
