Fauria Released

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 02-28-2007, 04:39 PM

The Redskins have released TE Christian Fauria. I wonder who his backup will be.

I think Todd Yoder will be the backup although we may sign a free agent to bolster the depth.

We are going to be way under the cap. I hope we at least take three chill pills before the clock strikes midnight on thursday night.

They are close to a deal with Yoder from what I understand...or better said, Yoder deal close to they are

Good for Yoder. He did step up, and he's getting what he deserves.

Ahhh, TMC's got nothing on the TAF when it comes to witty posts.

Not hatin, TMC, but seriously, when was the last time you went all Master Yoda up in here? I think it's about time you got back on top your game!

One down, how many more to go?
Any of our capologists have anything on Patten? seems I remember somebody saying here that it wouldn't save anything to cut him.

skinsfan_nn · 02-28-2007, 04:51 PM

Fauria, didn't do squat....BYE! I think the Todd Yoder signing is complete, Good move. GOOD BLOCKER, GOOD HANDS!

Monkeydad · 02-28-2007, 04:54 PM

I figured he'd only be around for a year anyways, not surprised.

dmek25 · 02-28-2007, 04:55 PM

the first of many moves, i hope

Schneed10 · 02-28-2007, 04:58 PM

Cutting Fauria saved us $1.0 million (on the nose) in cap space.

Cutting David Patten would actually cost us cap space ($2.2 million to be exact). If we cut him as a post-June 1 cut, we'd save $1.3 million this year, and then take a $3.5 million deadcap hit next season.

Chances are Patten will be back, but I've seen stranger things happen.

We need a kicker, not a flower picker...

When is Hall going to get released (post June1st?)

GTripp0012 · 02-28-2007, 05:45 PM

Good move, but not a surprising one.

Now to bring in a blocking TE who can actually block.

thanks Scneed. JLC seems to think Patten is next or on the list, but he never gives cap info like u do.
We could end up w/# 4 & 5 WRs - Loyd & Patten - that don't play spec. teams. I thought Thrash outplayed both last year & earned time at wr, plus he just restructured/extended.
