Exactly, this better not be thier replacement for Springs!

I just heard on comcast sport tv, the deal is getting done. They mentioned one year deal, vet minimum salary.

Might not be a bad pickup for low dollars?

great pickup at vet min. he's started a bunch of games... as a #3 or #4, you can't really beat that.

i'd still rather be hearing about mulitalo though.

If that is the deal, this is a great pickup. Better than Rumph as the #4 for sure.

Agreed. As long as he is coming in at vet minimum this is an excellent signing, I also wish we were hearing about Mulitalo too, I think he would be a great pickup as well.

Any news on this?
redskins.com hasn't reported it. I'm thinking this was premature & that Fisher isn't signing w/us. Maybe there awaiting word on his physical to make it official.
I only hope that if we do sign him, that it doesn't mean the end for Springs.

i wish this would become official

Springs, Rogers, Smoot, Fisher, Jimoh??? So pretty much we're going to have two starting caliber CB's sitting on the bench.

It's called quality DEPTH. Something we have no clue about at any position on the whole team. Except RB.

What's good is that he was visiting here before, and they let him walk. I bet for ONCE he didn't get any other interest and is going to sign here for cheaper.

[skinsfan_nn]

What in the world is takin so long to get this one done? I would have thought this would have been a quickie.

[GMScud]

Fisher immediately becomes our fastest DB. He is blazing fast. Of course injuries are a concern, but he's 28 so he still has some mileage left, and he won't be a regular starter, so he'll be less likely to get hurt. No details on the deal yet, but I betcha he came pretty cheap, and I like the move for depth. Props to FO for continuing to show some discipline and restraint. Now we just need to bring in Ian Scott and Ed Mulitalo. I am pleased thus far with our offseason....

[mlmpetert]

I remeber redskins.com talking about Springs as a safety nex year, and Springs saying he would if that s where he was needed. Maybe thats what they are still thinking

No way... we are not. If Springs gets hurt, then Rogers... then what?????

Fred Smoot can start in this league and Fisher has as far as I remember. And there is very little "if" when it concerns Springs's health, the guy's weak. I wish they could have gotten the Bly deal done. He's better anyway...
