Think Kory's 5 year deal voids to 2 years.

Sweet!

So could there be a move with Chester to move JL to his spot? I would think this it would be this year or next, now that we have LT, LG, and C locked up for the next 2-3 years.

My error on London Fletcher. He is NOT set to become a UFA. Will fix in my FOX story. Again, my fault.

Here is pft's story on it: Redskins stike deal with Lichtensteiger | ProFootballTalk

Really don't understand why fans get so crazy over Lorenzo. I like the guy a lot, he's a good dude, but at the end of the day he's really just a glorified special teams player. He's never really stood out at any of the other positions he's played at.

Good to have for a multipurpose player in case of injury and we need someone to step in that moment, but the thought that he could go somewhere and be this starting LB or anything else is absurd.

What is the deal with these 5 yr deals that void after two? Morgan's deal is up after this year, and I am surprised we didn't extend his to give us some more space. He signed a contract that was similar as have multiple other players.

This is new after the CBA deal.

With the direction this team is going to, I don't think Morgan or Redskins would want to void the 3rd year.

I agree. He's a special teams player, stop worrying... He'll come around.

Because he has paid his dues for the Redskins, he's done everything he's been asked to do. A consummate professional, he's the best ST player in the NFL who doesn't return balls but will kick your ass every time. ST play just like offense and defense is a very important of a football team (ask George Allen). The Redskin would be foolish to let him walk, plus he's always been one of my favorite Redskins also.

I agree he has paid his dues and in a normal year I am sure the team would reward him, but he is 30 and is looking to make the most he can now. He has said as much on FB and twitter.

I get it, if he can get something better he deserves it. He is vesitile and has proven a solid depth player, but I don't think he is an every down player. We need every dollar we can get to sure up the secondary, and if we have to lose Zo so be it just count him as another casualty of the AH contract.

And if Fletcher retires or doesn't come back who will backup Robinson or start in Fletcher's place? Alexander is needed.

Interior line. Chester, Monty, and Kory.
