“@HTTR24_7: D.Cox is not on the #Redskins radar”

Injury history gotta scare us and many, which is probably the right move.


But I hope like hell we dont overpay Talib, that would be the bigger risk imo.

That's the beauty of capgate, we literally can't overpay anyone!

we could push guarenteed money to different years, which could be worse.

Doesn't appear Bruce and Mike want to go down that road. If they haven't done it by this point, I doubt they will. Which I don't blame them, its the smartest move you can make for the future, even if it does hamstring us a bit this year.

Just because you have Cap space you should not use it all. Football is such a true team sport. Because player A works in system A doesn't mean Player A will work in system B.

Just like the draft not necessarily the best players are in round one. Look at the Bella of the ball FA from a few years back he is out of a job; Nnamdi Asomugha.

If we had Seattle or San Frans roster, I'd be all for it. We need a lot more then 1 or 2 pieces though.

I think we can count the Skins out as FA players this year. (not a bad thing) Not enough room to do anything, but I feel we'll most likely go for some bargain basement guys to fill in until we can replace them.




Off-topic note:

Ray Lewis officially joins ESPN's NFL team - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/9046960/ray-lewis-officially-joins-espn-nfl-team)

Just another reason to stop watching ESPN's NFL squad. Between him and Berman.....sheeesh.

Flacco's fault?

Baltimore has cut/traded/can't afford:

Boldin
Kruger
Pollard
Ellerbe
Reed
Lewis*retired*

They signed Canty from the Giants...I approve of that move for obvious reasons.




I say we go after Pollard, he's only 28 and not too pricey.


Chris Houston signed now...another CB off the list.

AJ Smith is probably to thank...we're talking to Cason for the second time according to:

don't see it being Flacco's fault, his cap hit is around 7M this year. I think they weren't happy with the defense, and see this as a chance to clean house, and not pay huge payouts to avg guys. (Boldin I don't get though)

This isn't Flacco's fault. They were in cap trouble before Flacco, and they wouldn't have been able to sign many of those guys even if they didn't sign Flacco. Years of paying big money to defensive stars has caught up to them. At some point, you have to pay the piper. I expect the Ravens to take a huge nose dive.
