well, let's hope his contract is a cap killer...

Fine with me, I didnt want them to spend that kind of money on a o-lineman, or anyone for that matter.

WOW Davis contract is expected to exceed Dockery and Steinbach 7 year and 49 million. The market is really goen wild for a so so player. Can you see us giving Davis that kind of money and not one of our own?

I definitely could see us giving a FA more money than one of our own but I would guess the only reason Davis came here was to increase his price.

Re: Davis to Cowboys....

Good place for him, in a COWGIRL DRESS! If we didn't pay DOCK, we sure weren't paying this UNDERACHIEVER, the kind of cash he was lookin for.

Not sure why they even brought him in to REDSKIN PARK in the first place? They were well aware off the kind of cash he was tryin to steal.

Re: Davis to Cowboys....

I agree. Davis was a major underachiever. No way can we afford to spend that much for a guard.

I agree with you and I'm really glad that we did not give Doc that much to stay here. I mean do you guys really think he should be paid as much as the top guard in the league.

Wow Chargers got a home town deal on Dielman at 39 million over 7 years with 10 million guaranteed. To stay put he left 10 million in Seattle.

They're flush with cap space.

Re: Davis to Cowboys....

I think it's time to praise our front office a bit for remaining cool, calm, and collected in the midst of an insane market.

We've kept our heads about us and haven't done anything to severely jeopardize our cap future.

I've been thinking the same thing so far. If we can make some moves to acquire some more draft picks, this could be one of the best offseasons in recent history.

Schneed - I agree with you - the money being thrown around on players is silly money in my book.

One question though - could the FO have at least tried to place the franchise or transition tag on Dockery so we could have at least gotten some draft picks in return or were the Skins too restricted by the cap?

Doing that would have really handcuffed us for this offseason.
