Well, the twitter is from LaCanfora. Not exactly the most "balanced" insider when it comes to the Skins.

I put Chester in the wait and see column. He looks like a scheme fit but not that great shakes.

Biased toward who? I'm just providing info that I didn't see posted. Everyone is acting like this guy is going to be great, but there's nothing really that shows he's anywhere near worth the money he got. I'm hoping for the best, just like the rest of us, but at the same time, this does look a little like Danny boy being Danny boy.

No offense man, but anyone who believes Snyder is calling any shots at this point is in La La Land. I don't think Chester is Logan Mankins, but I think he will be a solid starter. He was a poor fit in Baltimore power block scheme and has the ability to exceed in our zone blocking scheme.

I will say this, anyone who thinks our offensive line of the past two seasons was better than what we potentially may have this upcoming season is delusional. Granted that anything can happen, but I believe this could be a solid line. They are not the Jets offensive line, but there has definitely been an improvement.

JLC is just the source of the info that Chester was signed by the Redskins. The "analysis" is written by arbitrary people-some are former NFL people (like my anonymous almost always wrong so I ignore him now but he got Bowen right former agent source) others are just regular dudes-2nd job, college students. I suspect that if you wanted to write for Rotoworld you probably could. I know that as of a couple of years ago, the "hiring" process was non-existent

ehh... did we overpay? yeah, but hopefully we can draft someone and develop him while chester plays for the next 2-3 years.

We might have overpayed today. However a few years down the line this type of contract could easily be the norm for someone like Chester. With the way free agency works overpaid can become underpaid in a matter of years. The key is finding out weather or not we overpaid today. Not last year or the year before but today. Personally I'm inclined to think we overpaid on this but I'm not about to complain about adding a guy that could easily be tailor made for a zone scheme.

When I heard this signing on the radio the very next thing I heard was "We just overpayed for a backup."

You're just upset the skins were smart enough to avoid signing any of the players in your sig.

I like the signing. Low key guy who can get the job done. He's not really that bad like some are making him out to be. May not be a Davin Joseph but is a starter in this league IMO. My only question is whether he'll play guard or center? I'm hoping guard.

That's what I'm sayin. He's a starter at least. People actin' like we just gave 27 million for a turnstile.

Starting to change your mind on our moves the past two days?

I like the signing of Chester, and the releasing of Rabach. Rabach was a true pro and always lined up to play on Sundays. God Bless Casey and thanks for representing the Redskins Nation with class. Anyone know if Big Mike Williams is coming to camp after last year blood clots kept him out?
