You are right, you all's conversation did say "someone", not necessarily Patriots.
I just saw the trade Reed conversation spin off the talk of Gronk's retirement and that they might 'need' a TE.
I still think everyone in the NFL has a copy Reed's long injury list and are fully aware of his concussion issues.
I am not sure if the Redskins released him today, Reed might be out of football?
With all of the documented CTE concerns, Reed might be better off retiring like Gronk. But Reed may not be ready financially or is in denial.
If Reed was released today, he'd have a home fairly quickly. The TE market wasn't very good for FA.

Daily reminder that we gave PAUL RICHARDSON a 5 yr/40 million dollar deal which eventually resulted in not being able to retain Jamison Crowder for 3 yrs/28 mil.

Sure he would get picked up, but won't get paid any where close to what the Redskins are paying him.

This is very true.....Richardson can ball but his injury last year was a disappointment.....although he's only heading into the second year of his contract, signing him last offseason could turn out to be a bust decision...not being able to retain Crowder does in fact make you think about Richardson and question whether or not if signing him was a bad decision and also if his contract ate up what Crowder might have received from the Redskins.....

I honestly didn't remember that Richardson was on the team. Man, what a crap season 2018 was. Sheesh.

Daily reminder that we still have 4.6M available (https://overthecap.com/salary-cap/washington-redskins/) (12.5 - 7.9 rookie pool), so cutting VD and/or extending Scherff's effin contract would give us more than enough to sign a decent G (https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/all/guard/available/) and/or a decent edge rusher (https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/all/edge/available/), in case we don't fill all of our needs with A+ players in the draft...
I'm really surprised there hasn't been an extension for Scherff yet.

Yea if colt is anything other than 3rd string we have not addressed the QB issue at all .. realistic Smith is done, We need starter and backup.. Rosen starts, Case and McCoy that’s best case scenario.

Beyond the 2019 cap situation, if he's not extended I'll be scared for the future. We can't afford to lose our core A+ players...

Makes me think that either he/his agent is asking for a ton of $$$ or he's willing to wait to become a free agent...or both.
