Should Dockery Be Re-signed Before Free Agency Starts (next Friday)

If worse comes to worse how about re-signing Wade and sticking him at LG?I'd rather see Pucillo at LG. Dude did a great job for us playing that TE position that we were paying Fauria to do.

Oh, I just thought of something! If we lose out on Dockery because another team outbids us by only a few thousand dollars we could have a QUESTION #4 situation on our hands!!!

Personally I'm not very concerned, he's just not going to command a top-flight lineman type of contact on the open market. If he wants to test the waters fine, go right ahead. Once he feels the lukewarm reception out there we'll have him right where we want him and he'll re-sign for a reasonable deal.

My only concern is that the abundance of (if not record-setting amount of) cap space around the league and the dearth of quality free agents will cause FA price tags to skyrocket as teams compete for the few guys who hit the market. I wouldn't be surprised to see a lot of free agents overpaid this offseason.

I'd also like to see him catch a pass or two just to throw people off guard.

I'd also like to see him catch a pass or two just to throw people off guard.Preferably in open space. Who doesn't like to see a lineman making moves downfield on DBs?

Actually this brings me back to a point I've been on for quite awhile now: We need a blocking-style TE bad. A guy who blocks like a lineman but can catch a pass every now and then also. Pucillo was fine, but theres only so many different plays you can call with him in the game at TE. Not to mention theres a chance he will be starting at G next year.

But at the same time if he's asking for the world I'm sure players would understand the team's position. Sure Samuels and others want him back, but do they want him coming back as the highest paid lineman on the team? I think not.

I agree, Dock is no star, maybe someone ponies up and overpay's but how about letting someone else blow their cap up for average talent besides us.

Personally I wouldn't give him any significant money, as far as I am concerned the biggest asset he has is his ability to stay healthy other than that I am not impressed.

I wouldn't go any higher than what we gave Rabach.

6 years/$16.99M/$2.5M SB/$2M SB in 2006

That seems fair to me. It's all because of this damn history of overpaying is why he's expecting a big payday. Samuels got one, so he's expecting his.

This is going to come down to the Smoot, Pierce issue... if you're a TRUE Redskin and you like where you're playing, what's a few million dollars?

Like, Hey Doc, be like Lavar, and throw a little jack back in the kitty?

I don't think Wade is a full time starter anymore. I mean the Texans let him walk.
