I thought we were in a rebuild in which not all the holes are going to be patched in one offseason.

I'm feeling like there's a big FU coming from the Skins to the rest of the NFL. Could they possibly be that bold and get away with it?

We have the FO to do it. Danny won't back down, Shanahan's got a strong backbone too, and don't underestimate George Allen's son.

The problem is... doesn't the League have to agree with the contracts? and if the Skins are over couldn't the League say "Nope, not gunna agree to specific contract until you get below the CAP"?

When is the date the team has to be below the CAP? if they are over.

Don't thank me yet, the Washington Post was wrong and retracted their report.

Eddie still is UNSIGNED, so once it is confirmed by more than one source, we will update the thread.

Again as of 11:00 PM he is NOT a redskin

Its a toss up cause I know (I've actually met Royal before) that Eddie loves the Redskins and is a hometown kid from Westfield High School. Plus he's working with the head coach that got the most out of him years ago. Pretty sure he's a skins fan too and his buddy Evan Royster is on the team.

But the money is always a factor and he may not want to be the 2-3 WR at best on this team. I think we end up with him, but not for as little as we would have had him before.

No one really knows. The NFL took 18 mill. Which should have left us with like 15 to 20 mill I'd guess.

Then go up a couple of posts and you'll see the break down for Garcon alone which is like 13 mill this year. Then there is the Carriker deal, Josh Morgan deal, Eddie Royal deal..... each about 2 mill a year.

re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

So we bring in 3 decent WR's and two of them are home town hero's.

Josh Morgan- HD Woodson H.S., DC. VT Hokie (played the same time Eddie Royal did)
Pierre Garcon- West Palm Beach FL. College in Vermont.
Eddie Royal- South Lakes H.S./West Field H.S., VA. VT Hokie

2 home town hero's/ VT Hokie's.

re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

Pierre Garcon, Eddie Royal, and Josh Morgan are all young WR's that can stretch the field, which IMO is what we've lacked for years... And, anyone who thinks/says Gaffney, our only true possession WR, should be axed, especially with him coming off having his best yr, is INSANE.

I don't see how Gaffney having his best year is comparable to Moss putting up 3 years of 1000+ yards and 1 year only a few yards shy of 1000. I feel the only reason Moss didn't break out this year as well is him being injured and playing QB carousel during the year. It's like saying, "why did Fred Davis do so much better than Chris Cooley. We need to get rid of him."

Either way it's never a good sign when you're trying to decide which old guy is better than the other. Personally I don't think either of them have too much longer to put up big numbers.

Unless Royal and/or Morgan is/are also sure-handed and thus can play the possession role.
