Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020

2015 2nd Round pick.
26 years old
local kid - oxon hill/potomac hs (do they wear green?)
5'11" - somewhat short
4.38 40 - 5 years ago at the combine but thats an elite time

3m contract, max value at 4

------------------

We need some vet bodies at CB. is this guy, at 26, now our most vet corner? thats insane.

we need to add another guy like this. physically he fits in the nfl, still young, just hasnt put it together.

injuries .. at 3M .. with our CB group looking it is .. you sign the guy for 3M and see if he can stay healthy.

In terms of performance, we definitely lose in the tradeoff between Dunbar and Darby. it almost seems like as part of this "buy in" to his program Rivera is adding marginal journeyman who are happy to just get an offer and and will not speak up or demonstrate any individualism. Conformity seems to be preferred over talent.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020

So.... We were glad to let a #1 (on our team anyway) go that was "injury prone" but we are ok with signing a dude that is also "injury prone" and he was garbage last yr...

Got it

Ehh .... I don’t think anyone is “happy” with losing Dunbar and adding Darby. They both have injury concerns and that’s not lost on anybody. But the question isn’t would you rather have Dunbar or Darby but would you rather have Darby or no Darby. Dunbar for his reasons wanted out. I personally would have kept him and seen if he showed up. If he played 16 and balled, I’d pay the man. If he didn’t and missed 6-8 games, I’d let him walk and take the comp pick. I personally didn’t see the huge need to move him but he wanted out and I’m not privy or smart like RR and smith.

Dunbar was an unique and difficult player to really grade imo. He looked okay to me and I just didn’t see the same player that PPF does but I differ to them.

The not playing through pain and self limiting that Dunbar did (in my opinion) made not signing him to a big long term deal okay with me. I don’t want a guy who needs to feel 100% healthy before he will play. I don’t think that is realistic in the nfl.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020

Dunbar great sin was showing his ass in the media before actually meeting his new head coach. That's a bad first impression and ultimately lead to him being traded.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020

Dunbar still whining about things after being traded is a pretty clear sign of why he’s no longer here.

Culture.

Exactly right. I was going to post this when the lopsided trades went down that we were unloading a bunch of behind the scenes bitches. I think RR is getting rid of the bad apples. Talent or not, get rid of the guys that are not team players.
I like it.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020

I followed Dunbar on IG and I couldn't understand one fucking post of his. My head will spin less because of moving on.

And Darby went to FSU.

For selfish reasons I'm pretty happy with the move. And Darby can play. Just gotta accept he will be missing games. Still need to draft a CB this year.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020

Dunbar started only 25 games in 5 years, and never played a full season. I don't think we're losing much here. Relax...

I never thought that he was all that good a corner anyway. He may have been the best of a bad group.

They may not be done in free agency and could have $42 million left if Trent is traded.

If you look at the list, lotta aging vets who will want to be paid to be a team in a rebuild. Just not the fit imo. The only ones I would be ok with are the tackles on the list cause we gonna need one of those 3.

This has been a pretty weird free agency...missed on 2 big targets, got a several depth targets. Darby reclamation project...Fuller return...RB room is gonna be full.

I think the front office is still kinda feeling it’s way around. I tell ya, our plan for the draft needs to be stronger now.
