Dockery Cut:

Skins Expected to Go After Dockery
Jason Reid and Jason La Canfora report:

The Redskins have expressed interest in former Skins guard Derrick Dockery, who was released today by the Buffalo Bills, and, according to league sources, are expected to pursue him this weekend

Be nice to have him back cheap. He is closing in on 30 but he could play for 3 years at least, enough time to draft their replacements. If we do sign him, does that mean we shy away from possibility of getting Duke Robinson or Alex Mack in the draft and focus specifically on the Tackles?

I wouldn't give him the Steve Hutchinson money that the Bills gave Dock two years ago, but I would definitely talk to his agent. The beauty of a Dockery signing would be the much shorter timeframe to establish chemistry with Samuels and Rabach since he played with both while he was here.

I thought the comparison we were talking about with Hall and Dockery was whether Dockery could demand big money right now. My suspicion is he can't. Had he been cut in the middle of the season, then been picked up by another team at a relatively bargain price, played well and gotten back on the market at the end of the season that would be one thing...that would be DeAngelo Hall. But that's not the case with DD

This is what I've been tried to say all along. But some people are just stubborn.

Hall Loves DC and is not going to the PATS, and I would be suprised if the Camera operator would want someone with Halls alleged locker room issues. Who Knows

[Nflnick11]

Ya but if hall really likes DC, he would have signed with us by now, I hate the pats, but I think they might get him... I just really hope he stays here, he's young and he's good

bringing him(doc) back wuld be so great.

and i hope to keep hall also.

It's looking like we cannot get Hall, especially if we get AH, and after that we might get another marquee free agent.

Hall's asking price is going to be too much for us afford especially if we get AH. There is no way we get both. We cannot have Canty, Hall, AH, and DD because we have 12-14 mil of cap space. I also heard that Cerrato was frustrated with the negotiations w/Hall so if things don't work out by 12:01 he might just throw all our money at AH. I also heard that we making a play at Jason Brown from the Ravens. Did any of you guys hear that?

He's probably frustrated with himself for playing hardball with Hall and now Hall has the upper hand. He may be frustrated but Hall is still a top priority for the Skins.

Any chance the Patriots pursue Gibril Wilson and DeAngelo Hall? I know Hall might want some coin but after one year in New England, along with good play, his stock would be high. And Gibril Wilson could pull a Randy Moss and come play for winner. I mean he is a better tackler than James Sanders is, and he was playing in Oakland. So maybe playing for a winner will revive his career. What do you think Reiss?

A: Lamar, I know the Patriots were interested in Hall when he was released from the Raiders last season. I think that there was some real disappointment inside the Gillette Stadium offices when Hall decided to sign with the Redskins, so I wouldn't be surprised if the Patriots revisit the possibility. Wilson, I'm not as certain about. He played for the Giants in 2007, winning a Super Bowl ring, so I don't know if I'd put him in the pre-New England Moss category.

Wouldn't need to do this if they had kept Asante Samuel

Well Darth Hoody doesn't pay star players and he let's them go.
