Redskins Offseason Thread

Between McGee and Hood for the final d-line spot, assuming no injuries of course

This situation is such an improvement from where we were.

We are going to have to cut a serviceable player because of quality depth at one of the most important positions.

Redskins make a D-line contract change, gain roster flexibility | NBC Sports Washington (http://www.nbcsports.com/washington/redskins/redskins-make-d-line-contract-change-gain-roster-flexibility)



"he Redskins and the player agreed to remove the full guarantee of the 2018 salary and change it to an injury-only guarantee."



"If McClain loses out in the battle for a roster spot in training camp releasing him would save about $3.4 million in 2018 cap space. However, there would be a dead cap charge of $2.5 million in 2019. If his salary had remained fully guaranteed his departure would have caused a net cap charge of about $2 million."


a net savings of $0.9 million over two years. paying whoever takes his place on the roster (even at the league minimum) would cost more than that. They must have had a VERY low opinion of him.

Cravens and Murphy were both solid until one nutted out and the other got hurt. Amerson was Eh but overall it's not a home run that every 1 &2 should Pan out. U can't hate on his drafts man, they are better than what we had before he got here.

No, we are saving 3,5M this year, and still quite a lot in 2019, 2,5M dead cap is less than what we'd had paid him if he stayed here. His contract was more than 5M/y.

Very interesting. I've been curious about whether our running woes have been more due to OL or RBs, this suggests our line has opened holes. That said, it was with a lot of play from backups.

saw this too, I think either way u slice it we still need LG

Sorry, I'm in a smart ass mood.

Yeah, maybe a vet guard will be released, I've been keeping an eye out, but honestly, do you think anyone we put in there will be any less effective than Lavauo? Nsekhe doesn't seem like a great plan, but it may still be an upgrade.

BTW, Alex Boone is a Guard with a lot of experience. He hasn't landed anywhere in FA. Should the Skins kick the tires on him? He had a PFF grade in the 70s two years ago, last year on a one year deal his grade was just 39.5 (66th overall G) which was still higher than Lauvao at 38.3 (70th overall G). Doesn't sound great, but would you rather he compete for Guard than Nsekhe?
