I think he could be a good replacement.

Re: Lavar Gone
 

If LaVar gave back $4million, and he was due to get $6.5 million as a roster bounus then does this provide the team with a $10.5 million cap relief?
($4million + $6.5million = $10.5million)

Re: Lavar Gone
 

This one just pisses me off.

Best of luck Lavar...just please go somewhere other than Giants, Cowboys, Iggles.

Re: Lavar Gone
 

that is what i am wondering. I don't think it can be 10.5 million but only the 4. If we also get back that 6.5 in june i am one happy camper. If not this deal makes no sense.

Undoubtedly. We don't necessarily need a guy of that caliber, but it was worth broaching the subject.

if lavar goes to the eagles, giants or cowfvcks, then we will know he has been lying this whole time about loving the redskins

It sounds like we are just getting back the $4 million, but who knows. I'd be happy with just getting $4 million, but elated if we got $10.5.

A friend of mine emailed me and said he heard that he wants get back together with Champ and go to Denver. :frusty:

Re: Lavar Gone
 

i think denver also have some cap problems, man i hate denver as it is because i never want champ to win, hope lavar goes somewhere besides there, but would be better than nfc east

Re: Lavar Gone
 

we would get 6.5 in june if we cut him then so why would we take 4 now. The deal might get done so i don't think it makes sense but i too think it is just 4 million. That is stupid.

i dont really know how much we get back or anything, but we would cut him now since we have to get under the cap by thurs, not by june. guess that would be the thinking behind it if that were the case

He was so happy to see that the Redskins cut him but down because free agentcy will not start today! Can you see Champ and Arrington in Denver??? :insane:

Re: Lavar Gone
 

[QUOTE=RedskinPete]A friend of mine emailed me and said he heard that he wants get back together with Champ and go to Denver. :frusty:[/QUOTE]

Denver is already up against the cap. Denver is rumored to be interested in John Abraham. Denver has a glut of linebackers (Wilson, Williams, and Gold). So, I doubt he'd go there.

I just want to keep him out of the division. Unfortunately, the Eagles, Giants, and Cowboys are all under the cap and are all definately in the market for a linebacker. The Eagles are replacing Keith Adams. The Cowboys are short a linebacker or two. The Giants also need help since Emmons, Griesen, and Green aren't going to be with them in 2006.

and dallas plays 4 lb but i doubt he will go there or he will be hated forever in d.c.

Wasn't the $6.5 mill already figured into 2006's cap figures? So if thats the case, and LaVar does give us back $4mill then that should come out to be about $10.5 mill for 2006 cap relief. He is giving us back $4mill and we will not have to pay the $6.5mill bounus either that is already figured into 06"s cap so that is how I am coming up with that number, but I am not very good to understanding the cap thing so hopefully That Guy on here can chime in on this or our friendly neighborhood capologist crazy canada guy can help...

[QUOTE=CRT3]Bad move. Slap in the face to the fans. I want a refund on my Lavar jersey[/QUOTE]

What? How so?

LaVar buying out his contract was a classy move. I mean, he has no trade value cause everyone knew he was going out the door and he spent money already in his pocket to released himself. If it isn't working, why stay?

p.s. I wonder if Snyder said something to him about sending a TV.

Re: Lavar Gone
 

I am not voting in the poll yet. If we save 10.5 mil i vote the third option. If not i vote the forth.

We'd have to know the terms of the deal before we could analyze the cap ramifications. Well see.

Right I agree that is why I am asking because I don't know I am just saying how I currently see it, but by no means do I think that I am anywhere close to being right...

Re: Lavar Gone
 

if we follow through with the deal tommorrow with a chance of the cba getting signed and only get 4 million from lavar this will be the worst move I have ever seen. wait till the ****ing CBA is done. if it gets done the cap will be high enough that we won't need to do this now and we can save an extra 2.5 million in june. We could even sign players assuming we would get that 2.5 million and go over the cap as long as we get back down. now if the CBA doesn't get signed this makes sense

Re: Lavar Gone
 

the lavar avatars...i will miss them dearly

Re: Lavar Gone
 

I still like Lavar and hope he comes to the Texans so I can see him play often.Dallas is not an option after what he did to Troy.The fans would never accept him.

Re: Lavar Gone
 

How far lavar has fallen. this was the 4th thing on the NFL page on ESPN. Two years ago it would have been the first thing on the home page of ESPN



[url="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2355921"]http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2355921[/url]

LaVar Arrington will become a free agent after agreeing Sunday night to pay the Washington Redskins over $4 million in cash to get out of his contract with the team. As part of the deal, the Redskins have placed Arrington on waivers.

A team source said that the move would have been made irrespective of any delay in the waiver deadline Sunday evening.

Over the last few days, the Redskins have asked several veterans to restructure their contracts so that the team could get under the salary cap. Arrington was the only Redskins player who refused to rework his deal, The Associated Press reported.

Arrington had a $12.045 million cap number and was due a $6.5 million roster bonus. By taking the money, the Redskins will save approximately $4.2 million with his release. They entered Sunday $17.7 million over the salary cap.

In January, the NFL Players Association filed a formal complaint seeking disciplinary action against Carl Poston, Arrington's agent, for "neglect" in negotiating Arrington's contract near the end of the 2003 season, union and league sources told ESPN's Chris Mortensen. The "neglect" had to do with Arrington's $6.5 million bonus.

Arrington did not see much playing time early in the 2005 season as he worked his way back from offseason knee surgery. The former Penn State standout became disgruntled over his diminished role, though it is unclear whether those feelings have played a part in the current negotiations. The three-time Pro Bowl linebacker regained his starting job against Philadelphia on Nov. 6.

Arrington played in 11 regular season games for Washington in 2005, recording 47 tackles. He also played in the team's two postseason games, and had 12 tackles.

Re: Lavar Gone
 

The AP reported that Arrington would have counted 12 million against the Redskins cap that included a 6.5 million roster bones. So him giving back 4 million what is that do? Where dose it make us stand in our cap and what savings is Arrington give us??? I now see from the post above the savings but just that little so now we are still 13.5 over the cap?

I'm not sure that ESPN's/AP's numbers takes into account all of the restructured deals. Most of them haven't been made public. I think we'll need to wait a little longer to figure out the details. Until then, we'll just be guessing. But, keep guessing, I'm going to be.
