But he's not worth that kinda coin/elite CB cash, IMO. But I'm not writing the checks clearly. I'll take a wait and see as if there where any other choice.
Can't believe we're releasing Smootsmack. Oh well he was only posting like 6 months a year so I guess from that perspective we were paying to much.

By cutting Smoosmack we are now 10 million under the cap. Maybe Albert Haynesworth can be a mod for 30 million guaranteed. LOL.

Re: Thoughts on Halls New contract with SKINS

Without him our secondary would be thin with few better options. Its a big contract but he's a young, gifted player who seems sincere about wanting to be a Redskin seeing as he's from VA and all.

Jesus *****ng Christ. Of course you would. For you and 90% of the Internet-fan-boys on this site, the prospect of signing Haynesworth (a game changing tackle) to a big deal is laughable, yet a 54M dollar deal given to a corner back is totally cool.

As far as signing Canty (a pure 3-4 end), you and Matty act as though 'Scouts Inc.' is your one-stop resource for all of your football needs. Wow... Try thinking for yourselves.

And oh yeah, adding 'LOL' to all of your posts is NOT cool. It just makes you sound like a 12 year old girl, which based on your logic, is totally believeable.

I really shouldn't bother because it is way too late, but I'll make an effort to you, ok. I'll try to be serious and avoid writing "LOL", you think that will make you happy? Fine, here we go.

- First, I don't think any reasonable fan is not 100% happy with the money paid for Hall. If you read my post, I was borderline on whether the team should sign Haynesworth because of the initial cost. However, you gotta pick the lesser of two evils, and since you and I don't run the team, right now that lesser evil is the Hall signing. You're entitled to your opinion on the sign, I can only counter you with my opinion.

- Second, I think everyone here gives their own opinion on issues such as player acquisition, however I think just about everyone here try to find facts to back up their opinion. Granted there are people like SmootSmack who obviously have more inside information than your average fan, but me for the most part try to find somewhat reliable information online to back up anything I say.

- You dissed Scouts, Inc, however allow me to enlighten you on what Scouts, Inc is...
Quote:
Scouts Inc. breaks down film of every NFL game, numerous college games and individual footage of college prospects, and our experts attend NFL training camps and both NFL and college games in person. Scouts Inc. breaks down film of every NFL game, numerous college games and individual footage of college prospects, and our experts attend NFL training camps and both NFL and college games in person.
So unless you're someone that analyzes games, breaks down film, or have some type of intimate knowledge of the NFL, I'm going to trust what Scouts, Inc has to say about a particular player. Now, it's not the end all and be all of information, but I would say it is more accurate than your average fan.

- And by the way, I am thinking for myself when I have an opinion on Canty, however my opinion is based on facts provided by Scouts and other information I have researched on Canty. Just because my opinion is different than yours, doesn't mean that it is not my own.

- Finally, as you can see from some of my earlier posts, I come to this thread because it entertains me and because I'm a Washington Redskins fan. I think there's a certain level of seriousness, but there's also fun. However, I don't appreciate you singling me out and insulting me in all of your posts. Take that crap somewhere else. It's funny that you accuse me of being a 12 year old girl, yet you're the one that's being completely immature. Keep it up and I'm sure a mod will be more than happy to ban you.

I think we were just too hyped up because of free agency.

Re: Thoughts on Halls New contract with SKINS

I think Hall is ok but way to much money and it keeps us from other needs. Wish Hall tock less to help the team get a DT and maybe a OLB. Unless we can stop the East from running on us Hall dose little to win the divison!

Re: Thoughts on Halls New contract with SKINS

Keeping Hall and signing Canty & Dockery would be pretty sucessful to me. Apparently, that'swhat Cerrato's trying to do.

Re: Thoughts on Halls New contract with SKINS

Springs will probably be released very soon, if he wasn't already due to the Haynesworth signing. We go into the season with Hall, Rogers, Smoot, if Hall's play doesn't drop off we should be fine at CB.

Re: Thoughts on Halls New contract with SKINS

I thought each Hall and AH would sign for about $10 million less. Just goes to show that I know nothing about how contracts work, I always hated math

Re: Thoughts on Halls New contract with SKINS

I don't like the Hall move. Too much guaranteed by far. IF his play proves me wrong I will happily eat my words though.
