Lavar and Giants agree on deal

I think he's a great player when healthy, but it seems odd to mention that he wants to play against us twice a year. He wants to go 1 on 1 against Portis, one of the top backs in the league that knows his freelancing tendecies, or against Jansen and Samuels in pass rushing or against Cooley in pass defense. All guys who know him and are becoming or already are elite at their positions. He can be an elite LB, but if he comes into a game against Washington with a chip on his shoulder, he's gonna try and make something happen, which is what got him into trouble in the first place.

Remember when we got Jeremiah Trotter and it was all about how he'd be so fired up to play in the same division as the Eagles that we'd burn them twice a year? And we got Jessie Armstead and it was watch out NY Giants, JA is on a mission?....Yeah, exactly

Maybe LaVar will make some big plays against and win some personal battles. But the Washington Redskins team will still win the war.

Yeah, I remember. And lets not forget about Mike Barrow, the Giant MLB stud who came here got injured and never played a down in a Redskins uniform.

I like Lavar and hope he does well except when he plays the Skins. But this is a what-have-you-done-for-me-lately game. In evaluating the impact, I think about Arrington's value in his last two seasons, not from his first two when he was out of this world. Fact is, he was not the best nor even the second best linebacker on the team last year.

sorry but this shows how much bs lavar was spitting at us earlier about loving the redskins. if he loved the redskins he never would have gone to giants

Lavar agreed in principle ESPN reports, 7 years 49 million.

Wow he got his money...

We'll see how it actually breaks down...I dont buy all of these inflated contract numbers. The only thing that matters is whats guaranteed. Also, dont forget to subtract the $4.4m from whatever he got that he paid back to the Skins...

Arrington and Pierce are not familiar with Al Saunders offense...so, I'm not too worried.

Thats an excellent point that I didnt think about. They really wont be able to help all that much since Saunders is running the show now...

no...just take away the 4.4 million from the cap penalty he would get from us

He was gonna get over 12 million from us, now hes getting less than 8 million

LaVar=Garbage....just another NFC East recycable player

Lavar is an excellent LB when healthy. Why deny that? He didn't get along with Lindsey and Williams, and he bought out his contract for 4 mil, so that's that. I'd rather have him in some other division, and I don't like the giants getting better on D, which it's hard to deny that they have. But this is the NFL--every week you have to play good teams with good players.

The main issue is health--weird that he wouldn't take the physical and all, and then they said "good enough"...

Wonder how that nasty field at giants stadium will affect his health?

Maybe Portis can run for 200 yds against NY the way Emmitt did against us when Lavar was here. Besides , we should have no problem converting 3rd and short , lets face in Lavar NEVER made a stop on short yardage when he was in Burgandy and Gold . Never made a sack on 3rd down either .

no really subtract the 6 million that he thinks is in the contract but isn't
