Redskins Sign Donte Whitner

It's official: Donte Whitner is a Redskin.

Per Keim....nice signing....!!!!

TheMalcolmConnection · 10-05-2016, 02:28 PM

Nice. Totally approve.

Chico23231 · 10-05-2016, 02:33 PM

Good call Sfredkins...I think this could be the type of McC impact signing like Blackmon was last year. Hopefully he stays healthy and can contribute.

Schneed10 · 10-05-2016, 02:44 PM

Yeah this was needed. A hard hitter will inject a bit of attitude, I like it for that reason alone.

Bruton to Injuried Reserve...

OK Chico I like you so I hate for you to have to be the one I freak out on, but guys we know the fucking drill, if you're going to say something like this you need to either provide the link or say it's just your guess, or otherwise STFU.

Link or it didn't happen. Don't turn this board to shit.

Found it. Bruton to IR:

Report: Redskins lose another starter for the season

Abraham Lincoln was right!

SirLK26 · 10-05-2016, 03:18 PM

I like it, between this guy and Ihenacho(who should've been playing instead of Bruton IMO) we're better at safety

Still a spot open for DL help

Is IR the new way that we're shelving/cutting guys who are underperforming (e.g., Kory, Bruton)? I confess not to have any real knowledge of the extent of their injuries, but none seems as severe as what DHall experienced (obviously).

Frankly yes I think so. If a guy has a problem that McCloughan thinks has a chance to linger, he tends to go ahead and get a healthy body instead.

Bruton's case was a concussion. Looked like he got his bell rung pretty good on Sunday. Maybe they learned this week he wasn't getting much better. McC seems to like to get a healthy body in such circumstances.

Schneed10 · 10-05-2016, 03:35 PM

In addition to Whitner we also signed safety Josh Evans, formerly of Jacksonville, a 6th rounder in 2013. That accounts for the spots vacated by the Reyes release and moving Bruton to IR.

So no room for an addition on DL unless we cut/shelve somebody else.

In my line of business we would say "our data standards are not being currently being met"....shit is getting blurry

I am baffled at this teams' confidence in the DL. We need help up front, and Lanier and Ioannidis are not suddenly gonna become big contributors. Surely there's some Dlineman out there we could sign instead of Evans who could have an impact. It's not like they'd be competing for snaps with a group of All-Pros

We are apparently shifting to a 1-4-6 defense with Baker as the lone DL. Seriously, this is a little baffling to me too, although I can only imagine that is because they have concluded that there's no DL out there better than what we have on the roster, and so we might as well add safety help which we also need/
