Urlacher grew up a Skins fan ;)

[quote=BigHairedAristocrat;999720]I agree hall is better. Biggers is a cheap nickle/backup. Under no circumstances would the team bring hall back and have Biggers and hall on the field at the same time. Both are gamblers who cant cover. It would be a recipe for disaster.[/quote]

That's all he is. Rah may be able to work him into the system.

I got it...Biggers is the new Ade Jimoh.

[quote=Mattyk;999719]I admit I didn't know much about Biggers prior to today. [B][I]He sounds more like a depth guy than anything. I highly doubt we're done addressing the CB position[/I][/B].[/quote]

Relax fellas, this guy is depth, and I'm sure we will find a more talented CB to start, either another FA or the draft. This is actually an excellent depth move. No way this guy is opposite Wilson. He is a nickle cb, nothing more, nothing less.

Crawford might even push him out of the nickle job, so he is depth.

[quote=Schneed10;999714]So every time he gives up a big gain I'm definitely gonna say YOU'RE KILLIN ME, SMALLS![/quote]

I was thinking the same thing. Imagine if he make a great play we will be saying BIGGERS smalls is the Illest.

Think DJ Biggers vs Cedric Griffin

Re: Official Redskins Free Agency Thread 2013 Part II
 

The Bucs never went into a season with Biggers slated to start, but the bottom line is that at age 26, he best profiles as a no. 2 CB in the NFL. If he starts for us, he's going to get thrown at a lot, which would in effect make him the direct DeAngelo Hall replacement. He was usually targeted 60-80 times per year in TB, but Hall got targeted 100+ times per season.

[quote=BigHairedAristocrat;999704]It would be pretty stupid to have both Hall and Biggers. Biggers is like DeAngelo Hall, but without the upside (ie paymaking ability).[/quote]

Why would it be stupid to have both? The one with upside starts and the other, who you claim is similar but not quite as good, would simply be depth in case of an injury. Most backups in the league possess a similar skill set as their starter, but are without the "upside" or they themselves would start, right? If we can afford both (a funny thing to say given our cap situation) why not have them both?

Somewhere Reed doughty sitting by himself thanking god that the skins signed another piece of the secondary the fans will hate more than him. If hall comes back we can probably get to under 5 percent of the gameday thread posts being about Reed.

Remember back when we thought Doughty was the worst thing ever? He must be thanking his lucky stars, he's flying under the radar now.

Yep, haters gotta hate. Never understood it myself.

I think the plan is to have RGIII play both ways - depending on how his knee feels this fall. So we should be good.

I wouldn't mind seeing him go all Darrel green on us and return punts in the Super Bowl. Well yeah I would because he would get killed but that was always a huge moment when 28 was lines up to return a kick.

biggers is insurance for the draft in case we miss on a db, or a 1st round RT falls or whatever. we're covering our bases.

I believe we'll be drafting 3 dbs (2 cbs, 1 s) and hoping one of them can start for us. if we get lucky, great. otherwise, it'll be kind of like last year (though a healthy DL would really improve things).

IMO we have a winner. Well put.
