Completely Agree... Royal is nothing special, and I don't like that he'll get more money than he should be worth (3 yr 9 mil)... I'll bet in a couple hours he'll be signed, but overpaid... Earlier reports said he agreed to a 2yr 12 million, which was fine w/ me... But because Royal hasn't agreed yet, the FO will give him a contract he's not worth; Synder won't take a FA out to Morton's without them leaving the restaurant a Redskin.

Per Marvez, Winston underwent arthroscopic ankle surgery in February. He anticipates receiving full medical clearance in two weeks, and has already begun scheduling visits.

Winston visited the Dolphins on Tuesday night.

Florio has reported that Winston also plans to visit the St. Louis Rams and Kansas City Chiefs.

Whereas a guy like you might not care about or cannot fathom the difference between 1 million and 10 million a year, it was strongly hinted that Carlos Rogers does. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten all pissy that we didn't lock him up for whatever he demanded.

'Los uses a scale in which it's his pay relative to his peers. What he wanted was 10 million per, give or take a couple. Instead, it's 7.5 million per year, and that's if he meets all of the non-guaranteed incentives. To him, he got paid, but not as much as he wanted. But since he really has no more leeway to bitch about getting more without screwing himself, he took the deal.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker

Are the Redskins better with or without Eddie Royal? He's a good return man on special teams, but so is Brandon Banks. I think this year Banks will pull a Devin Hester and be the most dangerous return man in the NFL. He certainly has the potential. Ah, there goes that word again. Potential. Banks has proven that he can take a punt returns and kickoff returns to the house. If the Redskins release him, New England, Cincinnati, or an NFC rival will sign him immediately.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker

I love Banks but he's a one trick pony. He's too small to use on offense all day and he only makes maybe 1 to 3 really great runs a year. Royal or Robertson can fill his roll and play WR.

And there is not a chance he could "pull a Devin hester" Hester is a one of a kind talent.

Brandon Banks is good as gone. Take that one to the bank.

Royal is the better overall player by far.
