Greg Ellis was released by Cowboys, no trade needed- let the biddng begin.
i'm sure Vinny and Danny have him on the jet heading to DC.

At first glance...this makes sense....but...the current situation is 3 pass rushing DEs and 2 run stuffers...if you do this you would change that mix to 4 to 1....and what happens if Daniels gets hurt again?...thats a problem.

If the skins were to pursue this guy...it would be to cut a guy like Wilson...and I am not sure I am a fan of that.
Is Ellis better than Wilson...oh yeah...but...for perhaps 2 years.

If the Skins were to find a way to keep Wilson, Orapko, Daniels, Wynn, Carter and Ellis...then I'd say we have a damn fine DE set.

I do not see Ellis as a viable starting OLB for us....nor do I see one currently on the roster.

Pass rush is still a major need for us...one rookie doesn't change that...so, why not?

On the other hand...we still need a starter at RT and OLB and we are running out of time....OLB can be hidden with a solid line....RT cannot.

I hate the fact that he is a cowgirl...but I know his aunt so...he's ok I guess
I am on the fence on this...but he aint our solution at OLB

I would like to see 3rd and 20 with Wilson Orapko Ellis and Carter all at the same time....wow.

We have solid contributors at RT. Montgomery & Gholston my not be household names but they are solid contributors that can excell with a dominate LT next to them. No need to hide the position if they perform how they need to perform.

RT was referring to OT on the right side

When in the hell was Wynn ever good at rushing the QB? I like Wynn but he is slow as a turtle bro. Daniels can at least anchor the line to stop the run. Right now all we have as an Edge Rusher is Andre Carter. Orakpo is at the SLB positon for now. I say if Greg Ellis asking price fits than lets see what he brings, may the best player make the open day roster.

Do we really need him at DE? Also why would he sign vet min here if he could do the same in NE? We need to throw some real bones at him to get him here.

Is there actually talk of him going to NE? I hadn't heard that (been kind of out of the loop the past few days on NFL stuff). All I'd heard was Cincy

It was written somewhere that NE could be interested in him just like they were interested in Jason Taylor. Basically for the same reasons.
