Report: Redskins Agree to Terms with Barry Cofield

[SmootSmack]

Well, Mooby was prescient on this one.

According to friend of TheWarpath.net and former Redskins Magazine (Tony McGee's show) Josina Anderson we have agreed to terms with Cofield

And I got a voicemail from another source on it so I think it's true and probably merits its own thread

I love it when the big guys dance! But seriously, why aren't we drafting guys like Cofield (4th rd), Yanda (3rd rd), etc.?

Recent news on Barry Cofield - Washington Redskins - Rotoworld.com

Take this with a massive grain of salt, but according to Wikipedia he played NT in his rookie season for the Giants. I don't think they ran a true 3-4 that year, but maybe he played NT in situational defenses, like a nickel package or something. Or maybe that's what he's been doing all these years in NY, is playing a situational NT. Can't say for sure, as I definitely didn't pay attention to him that much. But apparantly Haslett and Shanny saw something they liked, so it's a moot point now.

I was wondering how I hadn't been beaten, didn't realize that there was a new thread

[SmootSmack]

Pretty good deal if the rumors are true, 6 years at $36 million. Hopefully he's like the last Giants DT we got, if not better.

I would hope he's better than Anthony Bryant for 6 years at 36 mil lol. But tbh, I think you're talking about Cornie Griffin. And if he was that good I'd def. be happy, I remember how good Griffin was in 2004, he definitely should've been a Pro Bowler that year. Also since I was diggin around for Cofield info and tidbits, anybody remember this?

LANDOVER, MD. - Giants defensive tackle Barry Cofield was probably a little upset Sunday night after a Green Bay victory eliminated his squad from playoff contention. But instead of blaming himself and teammates for last week's embarrassing 45-17 loss to the Packers that essentially ended their season, he started taking potshots at the team his Giants had just beaten in the Redskins.

"You know, their fans were all cheering and what not," he said after the game. "That shows you the state of their team, that they were cheering about us failing. That's when you have no success, those are the kind of things that excite you."

Cofield said this in response to the Redskins fans who began to chant "Green Bay won! Green Bay won!" when it was announced on the FedEx Field Jumbotron that the Packers had knocked off the Bears, clinching themselves the final wild card spot at the Giants' expense.

Sounds like he has 36 million reasons not to trash our fanbase now.
