Will We Get Ogunleye Since No R.Williams??

as much as i'm dying to get Ogun, no way would i trade Samuels. even after his bad year last year. no way. how's his cap numbers?Not good. Samuels' cap numbers are the main reason people want to use him as trade bait.

You can find all the salary cap info on the Redskins here, thanks to the superb work of our very own Crazy Canuck:

Here are his remaining cap numbers:
2004: $8.750 mil
2005: $9.643 mil
2006: $11.320 mil

Damn. i was afraid of that. (kinda knew it too..). hopefully Gibbs and Bugel can turn this unit into the new Hogs this year, have lots of success and make Samuels want to renegotiate his contract..
:grouphug:

i think this will either increase or decrease our chance of getting him, depending on which way the phins go

He did say he's willing to restructure after this year if I remember correctly.

I would love to believe this increases them, but I can not see any scenario where we are better off in that regard. It gives Miami more cap room, so the chances of THEM keeping him are greatly increased. And if they don't keep him NOW, it would mean they get a big-time RB for him. We only have one, and no way he is leaving town. We still have an very little shot left with a first or second rounder PLUS Samuels, but I think it would be a bad deal for us. Getting him for a 1st and a WR is now out the window.
