Redskins Free Agency Thread

I think Gregg Williams would be the favorite to be the next head coach here.

Total speculation, totally my opinion but I think there was something to the meeting he and Dan had this off-season.

I thought Cleveland would have kept him!

I believe that there's some truth to this. Otherwise there is really no reason to have this many Bama players. Our defense could have 6 Bama starters next year. Insane.

Because they're good. I like the Collins signing because he's a baller. I don't care where he went to school. What would be insane would be to pass on an opportunity like this because of where the player went to school.

I think the Alabama infatuation is honestly about changing a culture. I think Jay and Bruce are struggling with how to go about putting together a more professional, hardworking group who's willing to sacrifice his body and work tirelessly with discipline and passion. When you see Jonathan Allen I mean it's obvious that's the kind of guy you'd want setting the tone in your locker room. So I get it.

But the real problem is Jay and Bruce aren't creating the culture themselves. We've still got a Club Jay atmosphere with a soft ass Club Jay training camp.

We learned our lesson with Collins, always wait for the contract details to come out and withhold judgment til then. I love AP the player.

But that cap charge needs to be $2M or so for this to make sense. I don't think we should be using a significant chunk of cap space on Peterson unless there's concern over Guice's recovery (God I hope not).

All Day is good for our locker room and fun to watch but he's not going to be the same player forever. Like I said, at $2M or $2.5M cap charge, I can get with it. Let's see what it comes to.

^ I posted above the cap hit is 2.5 this year for AP

I would like to sigh ha ha Dix ,but wow!we have absolutely no wide receivers on the team ,Harris is free to talk to other teams and he is supposing, crowder is gone ,we gave doctson who is so/so at best Quinn who i think will be decent but who don't know for sure and Richardson who is good when healthy after that nothing wow we need tons of help here like to see us sign a decent free agent and draft a wr in the first three rounds

He was terrible last year...GB was lucky to get rid of him. No ball skills, can't tackle, and doesn't want to hit. Hard to understand how he gets all this positive hype. I would rate him one of the worst FS out there. I'd take my chances with a late round pick before him.

Yes he was.
Just to give a little history of HaHa Clniton Dix in Green Bay, because he was a huge disappointment to GB and became a bad influence in the locker room. This came from the DairyLand Express Sport article before Green Bay traded him to us:

"Clinton-Dix, who recently said he doesn’t think he’ll be back in Green Bay next season, has been in a downward spiral over the past two seasons. He consistently plays out of control, doesn’t want to tackle anybody and is often out of position in pass coverage which leads to wide open players in the end zone..... That type of individual mindset is absolutely horrible for the locker room and something the Packers tried to get rid of when they traded Damarius Randall in the offseason. With free agency obviously on the forefront of Clinton-Dix’ mind, the Packers should make the move first and trade him.
Unfortunately, that’s easier said than done and the Packers’ front office would have to work hard to find a suitable trade partner. For one, they are likely to get a fourth round compensation pick if he walks via free agency so that’s the lowest bar they should set."

Well we got him for a fourth.
He has a history of bad play and being bad locker room guy. Why do we want to pay a guy like that?

Here's the breakdown on running back Adrian Peterson's contract: He'll receive $1.5 million to sign with a $1.03 million base salary. In 2020, Peterson will have a $2.25 million base salary with up to $250,000 in bonuses for being on the 46-man roster. Peterson has $1.5 million in incentives each season. A lot of that will depend on the health -- and subsequent role -- of running back Derrius Guice, coming off a torn ACL. It's a good deal for a 34-year-old back because it reflects Peterson's possible role; he'll be paid accordingly if he's a backup or as a starter because of the incentives.

I appreciate what peterson did last year, but I think we should have found another RB in the draft. I think he is average at best and we could find a RB in the draft that would be better than a 34 year old RB. The one thing that I do like is he will be a good mentor for Guice.
