But hopefully he can play better than Smoot.

... u don't mean Dock will be half the player he was the first time around right?

I actually meant Angelo Crowell from Buffalo.

Gotcha.


SmootSmack, what are your thoughts about Dockery, think the team would go for him?

[LandrySlice]

They are definetly going to make a play for Dockery, but if this thing with Haynesworth has any teeth to it, forget about Dockery, Haynesworth, and Hall. IMPOSSIBLE!

[Eknox]

Oh yeah come on home ...what's up Doc?

The thing is if you can give them all long deals and focus their newly signed contracts to be minimized year one then you can sign all of these guys.

If they are gambling on the cap not being there next year it won't matter how they loophole the first year cost and stipulate their payments in the second year.


It really looks like they are just trying to acquire all the talent this year regardless of cost in preparation of there being no cap next year. It's smart but it is an aggressive gamble.

[SmootSmack]

I would think the Skins would at least show interest in Dock, they should.

[Hog1]

Interest would be GREAT!
I just don't want it to be attached to a ride in "Redskin 1" and an $88m check

If I was a player/agent, I wouldn't be eager to sign a contract that has terms based on an assumption of no salary cap.

Sign Dock and Hall, be realistic and forget about Haynesworth. He'll probably be a Buc, and be a good player for a while, but why give a player who is going to be out of his prime in 2-3 years a long term contract tying up that much money? It's stupid, but so is Vinny.

Good to hear. It's a logical fit. I he comes back, I wonder if we'll let Kendall walk...

[MTK]

Great news to hear the team wants Dockery back. I hope he's on Redskins One in the am.

I think we let Kendall walk if we think Jansen can be a good backup guard/Tackle.

If we get Dock, I think we can completely turn our offensive line around in two years:

2009 Starters
LT: Samuels
LG: Dockery
C: Rabach
RG: Thomas
RT: Andre Smith (worth the risk if he's there at 13)

2009 Backups
Heyer - T
Jansen - G, T
Rinehart - G
Geisinger - C

2010 Starters
LT: Smith
LG: Dockery
C: Geisinger/UFA/Draft Pick
RG: Rinehart/UFA/Draft Pick
RT: Samuels

Before or after it makes a stop in Nashville?
