Redskins 2014 Salary Cap Status

@MikeJonesWaPo

Some expect Perry Riley to seek similar contract to MIA LB Dannell Ellerbe, who last yr got deal 5-yr deal paying $7M per season. #Redskins


Need to drug test this fucker if he actually thinks he's going to get anywhere close to 7mil/year. No way in hell.

I have liked Riley from day one, he had penalty issues to get past, but I think he is more than just ok, he's been overshadowed by an aging Fletcher, but I think this year he breaks out in his own right.

So then what if we offered him a deal rich in incentives? Something like $4 mil / 5 yrs but with a large bonus for making the Pro Bowl or All-Pro, a decently large bonus for leading the team in tackles, etc.

This is a move I would make if I were Allen

Har-de-har-har! His agent can't be that stupid. He and his agent will want a boatload of bonus opportunities on top of a rich, long-term contract.

We all know the nature of the FA system is that decent FA players get paid way more than what they are actually worth. Then they restructure later on for even more money. That eventually cripples any team that signs too many of them.

We need him more than any other team does. So we're probably going to overpay for him, if we sign him. Our only hope is that there won't enough interest in him on the part of other teams to push up the price so high that we'll be forced by common sense to let him sign elsewhere.

I would replace him, no way Id come close to that. Im really on the fence about him resigning anyways. I'd think 4 mil per would be a stretch.

Riley can ask for that type of money all he wants, he's not going to get it here or anywhere else. That's just negotiating. The player shoots for the moon, the team comes back low, and they end up meeting in the middle.

True, he just comes off looking like a major dipshit. 4 for 15, thats about his value

He's not the one saying anything...

Two other league insiders predict that Riley, who has earned an average of $790,000 a year over the past four seasons, will seek a similar contract to that of Miami’s Dannell Ellerbe, who last season signed a five-year deal that pays him roughly $7 million per year. Will the Redskins deem him worthy of that significant a raise? Or, will they let him test the market to gauge his worth and then act accordingly?

I think Carriker will be cut and resigned at a lesser number like DHall was last year.

I think we need to cut ties with Carriker, regardless of contract numbers.
