sorry man ,I just happened to be watching comcast while checking out the warpath.I never get to '' break" any news so when I heard that and saw that no one had posted it, I jumped on it.The truth is that I dont really get to post a lot because by the time I can get on a computer everything has already been said.

Good covergae skills but he can't stay on the field. Hopefully he can make it through a season because I think he's a very good cover guy.

no i dont want him i wanted dre bly nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo that asante samuel look a like cant stay healthy he is a younger shawn springs

Re: skins sign fisher(sp) (rumor)
 

cornerback goes from a weakness to a strength. he is a good nickel back

Re: skins sign fisher(sp) (rumor) MERGED
 

If this is true we are totally overloaded at CB. This seems alittle excesive
Springs, Rogers, Smoot, Fisher, Jimoh??? So pretty much we're going to have two starting caliber CB's sitting on the bench.

Re: skins sign fisher(sp) (rumor) MERGED
 

He is a good nickelback, but so is Smoot.

We have a good CB situation UNLESS we cut Springs w/o getting Bly. Then we just have Carlos Rogers and two nickelbacks.

Yeah, my thought exactly. How many corners do we need? Usually you go into a season with five at most, right?

Seems like they're doing all the wheelin' and dealin' in the secondary when they should be making moves along the D-line.

Re: skins sign fisher(sp) (rumor) MERGED
 

I think it easier to draft an impact guy for the line than to give a boat laod of money to a retread. Quality dlinemen don't usually pop up in FA. Decent corners seem abundant this year.

That said we don't need another corner. Unless we trade Springs I'd be much more inclined to take the Houston deal now.

Another team must be drooling over Springs right now. I smell a trade and it might not be with DEN.

It's a one year deal, so he's gonna be a backup.

Don't you mean 3 nickle backs?

We could be in poistion to draft a Justin Blalock and Alan Branch... WOW.

Yeah, that's true. Because we could use BOTH a d-tackle and end. And probably one more.

The Fisher signing is nothing special. Hopefully he can stay healthy?
Also, the status of Springs is clearly uncertain.
If he stays and is healthy he could move inside. BYE BLY!

Re: skins sign fisher(sp) (rumor) MERGED
 

Fisher's first couple years in St. Louis were decent. He has been beset with injuries the last couple years, but he, Springs (if he stays) along with Smoot and Rogers would give us a formidable quartet at CB. Jimoh is counted on mainly for his ST ability so I didn't include him. Personally, I wouldn't trade for Bly, he'll be a FA at the end of the coming season, I think I would take my chances then if they're still interested.

dirthogs is back after a long hiatus..... where's the link guy's?

when i said look alike i meant he physically looked like him he is no where near as good

Re: skins sign fisher(sp) (rumor)
 

[quote=EARTHQUAKE2689;286532]when i said look alike i meant he physically looked like him he is no where near as good[/quote]I didn't misinterpret that. It's funny how some don't think Clements is at the level as Champ Bailey and therefore not worthy of a blockbuster contract. I think Samuel is a better CB than both of them right now. Of course Fisher is just a depth signing.

He is the dime at the moment.

Re: skins sign fisher(sp) (rumor) MERGED
 

If this is true Springs is gone without a doubt.

Re: skins sign fisher(sp) (rumor) MERGED
 

weird that we signed another CB (if true). If it's near vet min though, it's definitely a roster upgrade.

Re: Skins sign CB Fisher? (unconfirmed)
 

You can never have too many cover corners............I really hope we don't get rid of Springs.

would someone tell me how to change the picture on your profile to something else

Re: Skins sign CB Fisher? (unconfirmed)
 

I'm still searching for conformation!!! I can't find anything on a Fisher trade to Wash. Therefore I guess that's still unconfirmed.

Re: Skins sign CB Fisher? (unconfirmed)
 

What do you guys think we could get for Springs?(not tryin to start another thread or anything)

Exactly, this better not be thier replacement for Springs!

Re: Skins sign CB Fisher? (unconfirmed)
 

I just heard on comcast sport tv, the deal is getting done. They mentioned one year deal, vet minimum salary.

Might not be a bad pickup for low dollars?

great pickup at vet min. he's started a bunch of games... as a #3 or #4, you can't really beat that.

i'd still rather be hearing about mulitalo though.

If that is the deal, this is a great pickup. Better than Rumph as the #4 for sure.

Agreed. As long as he is coming in at vet minimum this is an excellent signing, I also wish we were hearing about Mulitalo too, I think he would be a great pickup as well.

Re: Skins sign CB Fisher? (unconfirmed)
 

Any news on this?
redskins.com hasn't reported it. I'm thinking this was premature & that Fisher isn't signing w/us. Maybe there awaiting word on his physical to make it official.
I only hope that if we do sign him, that it doesn't mean the end for Springs.

i wish this would become official

It's called quality DEPTH. Something we have no clue about at any position on the whole team. Except RB.

Re: Skins sign CB Fisher? (unconfirmed)
 

What's good is that he was visiting here before, and they let him walk. I bet for ONCE he didn't get any other interest and is going to sign here for cheaper.
