Redskins | Team won't make a major move to sign Peterson
Fri, 10 Mar 2006 19:35:42 -0800

Jason La Canfora, of the Washington Post, reports the <A href="http://www.kffl.com/team/37/nfl">Washington Redskins were not poised to be a major player in the race to sign free agent LB Julian Peterson (49ers), according to representatives for players on the linebacker market.

no problem. peterson cannot play def end... carter can...he is our man

A less reliable "source" of mine says DC native and current Falcons K Todd Peterson may want to come here. Skins may not want him though

Do You Really Think That Peterson Would Be Stiff Competition For Hall?

few years? 2 years ago we brought in about 26 new players and turned over so many positions (QB, RB, TE #1, SS, FS, CB #1, LOLB, MLB, DE #2, DT #1, CB #3).

I doubt this year will be quite like that

i would rather either say hall is the man, or cut him and sign either longwell or vinateri (if parcells hasn't already got him). these competitons are bs..

as for punter, we simply cannot afford to lose the field position battle all winter to the nfc east teams. they need to go after zastudil if possible.. or take rouen as a fall back. we have tried groom and frost and... well you know the difference between a vet like tupa and a youngster. it was like night and day the past 2 years..

Who said anything about a vet going to camp with Hall?

Look for a young (and cheaper) leg to possibly beat him out, but it all depends on Hall's health.

Wow. I didn't know that either. The same Rubin Carter that we beat in Super Bowl XXII, the same Rubin Carter that coached our D-Line in 1999 and 2000.

I don't know that Hall will be here for him to compete with. There must be some Zendejas brother out there.

D campbell means we'd be drafting 2 of the following CB/OL/WR/DE/DT in rounds 2 and 3.

I think they want to draft DL bad, so they'll try to cover as many cheap needs as possible in free agency. I would have liked a guy like pope or klop though

edit: i'm sorry some of my posts are sucking tonight. I'm tired and i can tell they aren't that good.

[That Guy]

there are 2 amazing kickers coming out of college next year (one went 4/6 on 57+ yard FGs last year).

since we need someone now, i'd assume longwell is the best choice since he's the youngest "good" kicker available.

[Big C]

my source just told me that he had a very reliable source of a source of a sources source that matt bowen has already been cut

What's this I hear about the Bills being interested in Robert Royal? I don't think we'll really miss him though
