We really need to make this happen with Hankins ,it would take care if a position of major need 🙏

So the long term strategy of picking the best player available is better than passing on superior talent to only fill a need. I realize need is a factor but passing on superior talent, more times than not doesn't pay off.

If the FO thought the next Luke Keuchly was available at 13, should be pass on him and pick a different position?

And no disrespect but Foster is just a guy, with a 2mil per year contract: https://overthecap.com/position/inside-linebacker

I see what your point is.

Then I'd say I rather trade down in order for BPA to match a need, and get extra value.
Mainly because I feel you never know what you draft, you're only guessing.

And as KI said, you can't have all the depth you'd like at every position. Especially if that means leaving a need unfilled.

This.

PFF graded him a 85, that's really high. I like that with a NT, means he's not only flashy, he's also doing the dirty work that only film breaking nerds see and that allows teammates to make plays.

If we get him and identify a G we can get in the first 2 rounds, then I'm OK with BPA.

Hankins would help us look at CB in the early rounds, I hope they get that done. Also would like DRC to finally sign.

[sdskinsfan2001]

Its already been said, but this guy needs to be signed (Hankins).

I'm really surprised we gave him that much although I'm curious to see how much is guaranteed.

[sdskinsfan2001]

I'm assuming a lot of this 10 million is incentive based. Hopefully most of the cap space is next year. We still need Hanky Panky.

Consider: A low-end signing like this helps fill CB spot; also could leave more flexibility to sign Hankins. I'm guessing they'll be aggressive there; just a guess tho

hope he's right

Waste of a signing, another ex-cowboy bust.

Big time meh on this move, I’d much rather have DRC

[Schneed10]

Note that signing Scandrick does not count against the 'Skins in the compensatory pick formula, because Scandrick was released from his contract with his former team, as opposed to left in free agency. The same would apply to Johnathan Hankins if the Skins can get it done.

They would be in line for a 3rd from Cousins, a 5th from Trent Murphy, and a 7th from Niles Paul. They would also get a 5th from Spencer Long but it seems Paul Richardson would cancel that one out.

Scandrick would not count against them. Neither would DRC (who they probably won't sign now), neither would have Muhammed Wilkerson who they pursued, and neither would Hankins, and neither would Pernell McPhee. It's clear the Redskins are embracing a new strategy and I'm impressed, I have to say. They are clearly considering the value of the player AND the value of the compensatory pick.

They're intentionally pursuing free agents who were released so they keep the compensatory selections, at least as much as possible.

If DRC's price comes down to $5M sometime in April and he signs with somebody else, I'mma be pissed. Meh is right.

But if DRC signs elsewhere at a higher cost, and we end up using the rest of our cap space wisely (hopefully on Hankins) then I'll be OK with it.
