I've always liked TJ. He would be a fine addition as long as we make sure that we have some youth at the position, too.

Good player i know money is no object to us so we could get him but i think at his age he would want to play on a contending team & we are on a 2 to 3 yr plan.

I'm pretty sure they both grew up as Skins fans though.

He's like the anti CP in his approach to the game. JLC compared his stats to CP's over the years & made the point that TJ has been just as productive w/out the drama & big paycheck.

He's from Big Stone GAp in Va. so he might want to come home. I'd ideally rather see a young draft pick (4th or later) added to the mix, but if they decide to nab a vet, TJ maybe the best out there, including LT & WEstbrook. Dude is tough & durable.

The stats don't take into account he has one of the best o-lines in the league. 4 1st rounder O-linemen, with 2 drafted by the Jets and two others drafted by other teams.

Besides, there are a couple of [soon-to-be] ex-Broncos RBs that could come here.

How is TJ "just as productive"? He has less yards, touchdowns, ypc, receiving yards, receiving tds etc. and played an additional two seasons.

JLC will always have a negative slant on the Redskins.

Ummmm, I'd say no. Clinton is as good and alittle younger. We need to just keep CP and draft a young rb.

I like Thomas Jones but would rather have Chester Taylor if there's a way we could get him to come here.
