I hope that is the case; they have been on the roster list for a while and they never even had a chance to show off what they can do, except for Wilson.. It's time for us to give them a chance.. That is unless if we decide to go after a DE in free agency..

I don't think I like the idea of drafting a DE at #13, right when we need a RT most..

Yes I think you're right. As far as Daniels goes, we are crazy to bring him back. I love him but it's time to go.

Over/under on the number of days until SmootSmack's User Title reads "Alex Buzbee": 4.5

If the Vinny and the FO is betting/hoping/praying Orakpo falls all the way to 13 I think they've gone full retard. I doubt he falls beyond 8th overall.

i agree. Looks like Orakpo will be in the B&G next year. I cant say im disappointed about that, but what the hell are we going to do at right tackle and lb?!

We could have signed Canty, maybe Vinnie will surprise us w/ Olchansky? Yeah, right keep dreaming.

I had Alex Buzbee, and Sting Like a Buzbee off and on for several weeks last summer, went on vacation, came back and he tore his ACL...so he's asked me not to do that again

Wasn't an achilles injury?

Olshansky isn't good, and I'm guessing he's looking for multiple years plus guaranteed cash. No reason to chase for him, in my opinion.

I'd look to add any older guy who will take a two year contract with less than 30% guaranteed. Look at Kevin Carter, Bertrand Berry, Paul Spicer, Marques Douglas, or Anthony Weaver.

Or Daniels at the vet min for a single year is fine.

The Goat · 03-04-2009, 10:25 PM

It sort of feels like after Dock everyone at Redskins Park went on vaca... i'm not advocating another spending spree w/o purpose but for f sake we have some serious needs. Why spend $63 guaranteed money @ DT and the secondary in one fell swoop but fail to shore up a proven, healthy run-stopping LDE and also keep the LB corp shallow on depth and talent?

Trample the Elderly · 03-04-2009, 10:26 PM

I'm telling y'all this was intentional. They know what they want to do. This wasn't a f-up by the FO.

Like I said earlier this means they'll probably fo after Orakpo if he falls to us. You guys want a youth movement? Well. . . . Orakpo would be that.

Daniels would be a back up along with Buzbee. That gives us one year with a stub DE, an undrafted guy, and Daniels for one more year or two as a back up. Seems to me like that's that until next year's draft and FA.

If Blanche wanted Evans then we'd have him. They tendered the guys they want, at least for a price.

GTripp0012 · 03-04-2009, 10:26 PM

But if Buzbee was waiting for an opening...this is pretty much as wide open a race as the Redskins have for a starting position.

Jeez the only DE still on the roster w/ any size couldn't make it through warm-ups w/o a serious injury... fantastic.

GTripp0012 · 03-04-2009, 10:29 PM

Guys, I've decided that I'm going to start for us at LE this year. I just have to put on 60 pounds, and then the gridiron is the only place I wouldn't look ridiculous.

Plus I could use about $700,000 in my bank account right about now.
