Available WR!!!!

bridaman51 · 03-02-2005, 10:37 AM

You always hear about the bit WR, Muhammed, Plax, Houzmenzahadah (sp) but what about Troy Brown..... To me he would be a ideal redskin, they way he sacrificed in New England, he is a stand up guy I think would help the skins out. Any Thoughts?

TheMalcolmConnection · 03-02-2005, 10:39 AM

Hmmmmmmmm... I wonder what his asking price would be. Then again, someone already said we have a NUMBER of mediocre to slight-above-average receivers and I think he would just add to the list.

BossHog · 03-02-2005, 10:42 AM

I agree. Pass him up. But bring Plax in. That'll bring a lot of area Skins fans out of the woodwork.

TheMalcolmConnection · 03-02-2005, 10:45 AM

I would say if we would sign ANY WR rather than draft one, I would want Plax. Honestly, I'd rather sign Pierce and Smoot first THEN worry about that.

Redskins_P · 03-02-2005, 10:49 AM

Smoot and Pierce are the first priority. I don't even know if we'll be able to sign Plax.....his price might be too high.

Exactly lets sign are own players for once. we have a good team. They just need to be together in the same system for more then one year.

TheMalcolmConnection · 03-02-2005, 10:59 AM

Definitely. I mean I really WOULD like to have Plax, I just don't think it will happen to maintain the people we have. Say we signed Plax and lost Smoot and/or Pierce. Where's the money going to come from to fill those slots with good players? I mean we could have Harris as a backup and maybe Wilds in a few years. I just don't want to take those chances.

We're gonna draft a WR. That's a fact. Whether we sign a top FA WR hinges on the question of wheher Coles is released.

celts32 · 03-02-2005, 11:13 AM

To old, we need to go young. The only free agent WR I would consider is TJ Housh. His best football is ahead of him and he will come cheaper than Plax, Mason & any other big names available.

BossHog · 03-02-2005, 11:27 AM

Houshmanzadeh is my choice of FA as he should come cheaper than Plaxico. If we're fortunate enough to draft Mike Williams or Troy Williamson we're straight! If it's possible to draft UVA TE Heath Miller and either one of these rookie-WRs-to-be, we'll surely have the our best draft of recent memory. Wow!

Love the man's character and heart. But not what we need on this team. Plus, I am starting to question his age a bit.

Big C · 03-02-2005, 08:10 PM

i really havent been impressed by houshmanzadeh very much. one decent season and dont really see him as a pig play guy or anything. i dunno that may be just me

MTK · 03-02-2005, 08:11 PM

TJ re-upped with the Bengals today

monk81 · 03-02-2005, 08:15 PM

I think keeping our defense together is a prioty.............we need Pierce and Smoot......we especially do not want to see Smoot go to the Cowboys.........

I think we can draft a WR and find a free agent less expensive then Plax.................

e16bball · 03-02-2005, 08:31 PM

Yeah T.J. is off the market. I would much rather see Plax sign with the Vikes. That would assure that they aren't taking a WR and eat up a bunch of that cap space with an overpaid player. If they sign Plax, I think we are sitting pretty for Big Mike, and that is my biggest offseason goal, aside from re-signing at least one out of Smoot and Pierce.
