2022 Commanders off season thread part 1

[Chief X_Phackter]

I wish they had addressed it already, but there's still plenty of time to fix the LB situation, either through the draft or free agency. Other than LB, it's really hard for me to criticize this offseason so far. And, they have done a pretty good job finding contributors after the draft.

2021 for example:
Ereck Flowers
Charles Leno
Bobby McCain
Ricky Seals-Jones

I still trust that they wills shore up this defense, the O-line, and grab another weapon for Wentz between now and September. If so, they could surprise some folks.

I agree. Rivera and coaches have shown us that they can find productive players after the 1st & 2nd wave of free agency in the last 2 years, so I don't see any reason for us to be concerned this year.

Ok, you made an excellent point here. I actually did not remember those guys were post draft signings... I'll shut it up and wait and hope then !

They are definitely looking still - at all positions, but obviously have a price in mind. Sounds like they were in on CB Patrick Peterson, before he resigned with the Vikings on a team-friendly deal.

I'm glad they aren't just throwing money around, and are looking for the right players at the right prices, including the ones they brought back from last year.

Carter to the Chargers. Would have liked to have kept him.

Yeah, agreed. That’s a bit disappointing.

Me too. But congrats to Carter. He represents everything you want from an underdog to be successful. He exceeded his pay grade for us. I hope he sticks in the league. An easy guy to pull for.

At the same time for us, would have been happy to keep him, but not a huge concern.

I feel like we'll extend McLaurin, Samuel will be healthy, and we draft Olave at 11.

We had The Posse and now we will have The Buckeye Bandits.

Note - Last year, lots of pundits were surprised (and my non-pundit self) that Olave went back to OSU last year.

FO has done a good job of finding useful cheap FAs like Carter.

Just hope the percentage of good finds continues and we continue to get good production from the FA depth guys.

Carter checked 2 boxes for us, hopefully we find a replacement.

Jesus - Dwayne Haskins just died. Hit by a car.

The #Commanders and K Joey Slye agreed to terms on a 2-year deal worth up to nearly $5M with $2M in guarantees, source said. One of the top kickers, Slye made 92% of his kicks last year & excelled on kickoffs.

[Chief X_Phackter]

Good news. Important signing. Hope he can continue that success. We definitely need stability at the kicker position.

[MTK]

Nice, Slye did a good job last year

Social media influencer. I am starting to feel like an old crank, but how about delivering a good product on the field and letting that do the talking? (Geez, I am a few keystrokes away from "get off my lawn").
