NFL Free Agency 2016

we have what? 11-12m in free space now and the rookies will take 5-6m of that. kory is 3-3.5, riley is 4, roberts is 3-4, culliver is 5.5 if you cut them.

i mean, it's possible to get him, but we have cousins, reed, jackson, galette, and possibly baker coming up on money years, so it's hard to see us being able to add 15m per and keep more than a couple of those guys. it's not like his agent doesn't know that either, whereas SF has over 50m free this year and next among other teams. trying to sell him on emotion is cool and all, but getting paid is generally what's key, and we're at a real disadvantage there.

Norman can have an incredible impact on our defense. Have you looked at our cap situation for 2017, 2018? Can you tell me why having Norman can't work? Have you done the math to say we can't afford to sign Cousins long term and Reed and others with Norman on the roster? I don't think you have. I also don't think you're thinking about the impact it would make to have Breeland as our #2 instead of our #1. Are you thinking about the schematic differences that Barry could deploy with Norman playing on an island? Are you thinking about the blitzes and the disguises? Are you thinking about the turnovers that could be created when Galette/Kerrigan and Norman/Breeland work hand-in-hand?

Don't get on the boards and spew knee jerk bullshit. We should be better than that. Make your case and make it a good one or I just scroll by.

Im the only poster so far who has mentioned whether signing Norman would effect our ability to re-sign Cousins or Reed or D Jax so I assume you are talking about me. Somehow you take offense to my thought or the shortened way i posted my 2-3 sentence thought.

my retort - your schtick of being holding yourself out as all knowing wrapped in a condescending attitude is getting real old. I dont come on here to "argue" or make passive aggressive comments at other posters.

We can cut culliver, coming off an injury for no penalty and save 9.25 so I definitely sign Norman for a net 6.75 more all day long.

Think of the glorious theater it would be twice a year against OBJ.

Culliver is 9.25 penalty free due to him being a bad boy and us having and escape clause,

then release Kory and draft Ryan kelly first round upgrade all around.

i'm not against getting him, i just think expiring contracts on key players and limited cap room are really working against us here. keeping kirk/jackson/reed together is pretty important.

That Guy you're good with the cap. Make your way over to overthecap, pull up next year, start adding back the players you want, and add Norman in there for a hit of 10M or so.

You'll find it's quite workable.

Time to get your hopes up, gentlemen!!

Report: Josh Norman to visit Redskins Friday | ProFootballTalk (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/04/21/report-josh-norman-to-visit-redskins-friday/)

Norman went to high school in South Carolina.
That makes him an east coast boy.
That may make DC more attractive to him.

Keim thinks that if Redskins land Norman, they'll be more likely to trade down from #21 pick.

Apparently us and the 49ers are the two front runners.
