Re: 2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

Defensewins mentioned a few weeks ago that we made an offer to Jacoby Jones last off-season, and he may be available again this year. Wonder if they'll make an offer

We're signing him for the Dallas games to fight with Dez Bryant and get him tossed from the game.

Hey, I bet he could get DeSean Jackson tossed too.



Fletcher HAS to be a priority.

I'd love that signing. He's fast, can return kicks and played under Kyle already.

I wouldn't mind this. Sounds like we're not going to have enough room to go after V.Jax and Fletch, so I wouldn't mind taking a younger guy at wideout and giving him a shot. I think RG3 is the kind of player that makes everyone around him better.

Re: 2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

Time to let Fletch walk if we don't have the money. Love the guy, but it's time to say goodbye to players before that last contract. We are notorious for holding on to players for far too long. If it's a good deal for the Redskins, and we can get out of it easily -- great. Otherwise, have to let him go.

Re: 2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

I say we go with the cheaper 25 year old Pierre Garcon instead of Vincent Jackson. I would like to continue along the line of signing young players who have yet to reach their prime but are getting there. You know.. like the Cofield and Bowen signings.

Re: 2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

I really hope we bring in Eric Winston RT who just got released by the Texans last night. Great ZBS fit, 28 years old, and never been injured. I also agree we bring in Eddie Royal for a modest contract(compared to Vjax). Bring back Fletcher. Carriker, and Hightower.

If he was showing ANY signs of slowing down you might have a point, but Fletcher has not been showing his age at all. Still a Pro Bowl-level player annually, whether he's being recognized or not.

Re: 2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

I guess if I were the Redskins, I'd proceed like this.

Resign Fletch, Carriker, Landry (if the price is right and we are satisfied with his health progress)

Sign Eric Winston

Pick one or two from FA WR pool of Jacoby Jones, Josh Morgan, Pierre Garcon, Eddie Royal.

Sign free safety (SS mentioned that Atogwe might be coming back under a better deal for us down the road?)

As far as options at safety go if Landry and Atogwe pick other teams, I honestly don't know who I'd pick. I don't really like any of the options out there in FA to be honest. People mention Brandon Merriweather and Reggie Nelson but neither have been impressive.

Re: 2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

Stay away from Jackson but get get Eric Winston. would be a huge signing for us. He is the only free agent really worth the trouble in my mind. But if you can sign young players to good deals go for that too. Otherwise I am already looking forward to draft day. STAY AWAY FROM VINCENT

Re: 2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

Winston is a must-sign for us. Age, price, position need and he knows the zone-blocking system.

Re: 2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

Resign- Fletcher and Landry (at right prices)

Sign- Winston, Garcon, Carr, Tulloch

Bow out of free agency.

And per PFT, Skins must absorb at least half of 36 mil cap hit this year.

Where did this Vincent Jackson hate come from?
