2012 Redskins Free Agency (and Trades) Tracker (Chapter III)

New thread

I have to admit....I have a bad feeling about Brandon Merriweather. To me he's a below average safety and overall I am not impressed with his game. I give him credit for for being a two time pro bowler, but I have concerns about him both in run support and in coverage. I'm hoping that Madieu Williams signs with us soon.

I'd prefer we play Meriweather at free instead of strong, since free is supposedly where his best seasons came from. But I'm not our coaches, so we'll see how it goes. I don't have much hope in him as a long term solution though, unless they can fix whatever's wrong with him.

Is Meriweather a ballhawk? Haven't followed his career, but that looks like the direction we have been headed with the secondary these past few years.

[TheMalcolmConnection]

This is why I'm hoping the weak safety class can at least give us the second or third best prospect in the third.

[REDSKINS4ever]

I hope the Redskins draft safety Chris Banjo from out of SMU. The guy is a beast.

Damn, beat me to it. Perhaps I'll just post this later without reading through the thread...

The DT/d-end? How many of those guys do we have now...10?

Eight I think.

Still, that's a lot. I don't see the value in adding to the d line unless it's a bona fied nose tackle stud.

Actually nine - I forgot about Nield. My guess is that will be cut down by 3 or 4 by the time the final roster cuts are made. I'm actually pretty happy with Coefield. We have a pretty strong D-line. No real headliners, but a solid mix of 2nd tier guys that play really really well together.

Are we allowed a 90 man Pre-Season roster now.

That is a good point. I think we might be allowed more players on the pre-season roster.

works for the giants, very big rotation in ny on the dline.
