I most certainly hope we will be aggressive with Rice if he stays as FA..

Man, Bills must be kicking themselves for drafting Maybin over Orakpo. On other hand, I would not mind if we give Maybin a chance if he is released.

Rice would add some beastliness but wouldn't it be better to bring some young talent?

I don't know about you guys but 8,760 days is pretty old in my book.

Agreed. We should add players who are no older than 50 days.

well idk he already missed one season

Re: Free Agency/Franchise Tag thread 2011
 

I say just stay away from the well-known free-agents until the team actually has a good foundation of young talent and hardnosed low-profile veterans.

I don't think you make a team better by finding good to great players that's on the front page of the sports section. The less investment made to a good to great player should measure whether a decision is a good one. And in free agency the size of the player's contract equals to the investment being made.

Re: Free Agency/Franchise Tag thread 2011
 

With talent on the redskins now, the team needs to try to add more good players rather than investing and tying up salary cap space in trying to add fewer but possibly better high profile players.

These low-profile good players also should come more motivated, looking to prove something.

Re: Free Agency/Franchise Tag thread 2011
 

Like the draft, in free agency for the redskins, the more quality players they can add, the better.

I like him. Catches the ball with his hands rather then his body.

Sorry to pick on you man, cause it's not personal BUT this is an asinine way of thinking. There's no such roster in the NFL made up of 'low profile good players who are motivated' or 'young hungry players trying to prove themselves'. That's fine for roster spots 43-53 but if you're talking about players who are going to contribute week in and week out, every single Sunday you need playmakers, some are going to cost money and some are going to be high profile. Using your logic to exclude a 24 year old Sydney Rice (or those of his ilk) is as irresponsible as going out and trying to sign anyone and everyone just because ESPN says they are valuable.

We have a huge need for a young, big, athletic WR. Rice is 6-4, has great speed, history of success and is 24. If he isn't the #1 free agent on our board that's a huge failure by our front office.
