Re: Redskins sign DE Stephen Bowen
 

Admittedly I dont know about bowen but i dont discount his abilities b/c i havent heard of him or he hasnt been a starter since day one or a pro bowler.

Id rather have high motor, lets get dirty type players in the trenchs than a guy whose mindset is expecting to be a probowler with the team adjusting the scheme to fit him and max out his production.

I like the fact we seem to be going after system guys, not collecting individually talented players that make a mix matched bunch.

Good to hear Dboyz thinks its a good deal for us.

[quote=CultBrennan59;815814]Ok I've been out all day and heard this news quickly, not really detailed. I'm just now hearing this from you about the agent asking for more.

I wouldn't budge for more money, however Jenkins is far and beyond better than Bowen. Also not only will we not get a high impact, smart, super bowl, proven Vet, who knows this defense, but he could now be going to the Cowboys...Double dagger right there.[/quote]

The Cowboys have cap problems. If they felt Bowen was out of their price range, do you really believe they'd be willing to pay Jenkins who seems to be asking for even more?

I sure hope they don't pay for Jenkins, but to the same extent, how are they still in the running for Nnamdi with his huge asking price? If they are in that running, then they shouldn't have a problem with Cullens money

That's what worries me about Bowen's value. Anyone working on his game film/highlights?

Nnamdi.....question just how serious that is.

pretty serious the cowboys media in San Antonio is going crazy thinking the girls are going to get him.

Re: Redskins sign DE Stephen Bowen
 

I feel we must have have overpaid for him considering the guy starting ahead of him for his entire career is 6 million above making half of what bowen will over their respective 5 year contracts. 19.2 mil for spears vs 27.5 mil (12.5 guaranteed) for bowen. I think he will be an asset to our team, and I hope that shanny sees something in him that his other coaches didnt, but it looks like we overpaid him quite a bit.

He'll take a little longer. It's not like Fletcher, Torain, Hall, or Landry where you can find there name 10 to 12 times on a game log and go off that. Coefield should be a little easier. Chester as well. Problem is my computer is on it's last legs and the only footage I can find is in high def which slows down my computer to a crawl.
