It's kinda surprising to see that we decided to allow Settle and Ioannidis walk away and not extend Payne altogether..
Yeah, intriguing to say the least... We went from "can't pay 4 quality interior Dlinemen" to "we can't afford 2"?
Is there a possibility that the beef between him and Allen isn't as settled as we thought it was ? That would play a part in that decision.

Could be, could also be that their initial conversation with his agent was a shock regarding his salary demands. I am supposing that Washington were looking at Vita Veas contract as a bench mark which would have paid him less than Allen. They seemed eager to resign him earlier in the offsesaon so something must have changed.

Report: Commanders to exercise Montez Sweat’s 2023 option Wednesday

Shocker...
Allen got paid, Sweat is going to get paid, and very likely Young as well. Payne is the odd man out.

Exactly. We knew all along that all four would not be paid. I concur with the three they have apparently chosen to retain.

Per The Athletic
"Washington is shopping Deron Payne"
Welp hopefully we get a 3rd for him

You don't let Montez Sweat walk , he's got BIG time potential.
CY is a franchise player
Allen is the best of the 3.

I would hope to get more than that, the compensatory pick would likely be a third. Obviously key is to have multiple interested parties, but if it is only a third then you may well keep him as an above average starter in a contract year and pick up the compensation pick later

Yup, and pass rushers >> interior DL

I mean if this was the case…I’m good with it.
But shit, you let Settle walk for peanuts.
