If You Could Add Just One
 
If you could add just one NFL player not currently on the Redskins roster, and who is known to be on the market (via trade or free agency), who would it be?

Ryan Kahlil Center Panthers

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
i don't think anyone one player that is available would make that big of a splash for us but in the spirit of the thread I pick:

Nnamdi Asmogha

I echo Colt's statement. Maybe not Kahlil, but a top OL FA.

Logan Mankins

Must be Peyton Manning. You said "via trade"!



OK, must be "on the market"? Then I'll say Nnamdi.

Davin Joseph or Yanda,whichever is youngest.

I got a feeling that Reggie Bush will be here.

Nnamdi, hands down. Turns our defense into the best in the NFC EAST.

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
My sexy pick would be Rice, more electric than any WR we've had in awhile

But if picking just one it would have to be whoever the best fitting NT would be

Really? This Redskins team last season had the worst defense for the B&G in around 50 years. Doubtful that Nnamdi vaults us to the tops in the division.

Wouldn't be surprised to see the Texans land Asomugha.

Marshal Yanda.

But do we reallllllly have to pick just one?

GMScud 07-25-2011 03:04 PM

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
I like CultBrennan's pick of Ryan Khalil...

GTripp0012 07-25-2011 03:07 PM

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
If I was Nnamdi, my top five would be:

1. Green Bay
2. New York Jets
3. Baltimore Ravens
4. Tampa Bay Bucs
5. Washington Redskins/Houston Texans/Dallas Cowboys

In that order. But realistically, the top three teams I would WANT to go to if I was Nnamdi may not be able to make offers competitive with teams like the Bucs, Texans, and Redskins.

X2

the more I think of NA at CB I realize he is 30 and by the time this team gets good he will be well on the decline. Rather spend the money on multiply players.

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
re: Kalil, really good player. But even ignoring the draft pick compensation, trading for players on the franchise tender create an obvious overpaying situation. They are already guaranteed 8 figures for this year. So their signing bonus for a long term deal has to, as a rule of thumb, double what they are going to be making this year anyway.

$20 million dollars up front for a center plus competitive salaries is a lot to spend on a player who isn't 23 years old and cannot singlehandedly change the direction of the offense. He would fill a gaping hole here. But if the Redskins were really serious about replacing Rabach, options to do so are readily available.

sidney rice

Mechanix544 07-25-2011 03:41 PM

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
sidney rice, in my eyes, would be a better signing than holmes. younger, better hands, and he has a great ypc average. id love to pair him up with moss and hankerson. plus, on the whole, he will prolly command a couple million less per year than holmes.

celts32 07-25-2011 04:15 PM

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
Sydney Rice...I think they need lineman more but Rice is the best young player who is available for no compensation. Signing him is almost like buying an extra draft pick.

NYCskinfan82 07-25-2011 04:21 PM

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
Vince Young. It was rumored MS wanted Vick, VY is Vick but a little less mobile. IMO.

skinsfaninok 07-25-2011 04:21 PM

Rice would solve our WR Problems

mlmdub130 07-25-2011 04:42 PM

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
honestly i want no one, i just want this team to come out and see where they are with the guys they have. we already made a solid move and got a proven safety, we had what seemed to be a solid draft, and let's face it the chances of us going to the playoffs is slim to none. let's evaulate the talent on hand and go from there, i wanna build a team this go round not try and buy one.

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
I'm loving this Yanda kid, which means I'm going to be disappointed on Friday or two or three years from now when he manages to go from being the teams most steady lineman to it's biggest liability like a certain former Raven that went across the way to DC.

Think positive think positive, for alonger period of time 6 ot 7 years.

Davin Joseph

Though I wouldn't hate Vince Young....or my secret non-Chase QB mancrush Matt Moore

Seriously though, one player, just one player would have to be Joseph

Someone hacked Smoots account. Nice try buddy but the real Smoot would never suggest a non-Missouri player or a non-Alex Smith player.

I kind of agree. I think a couple moves and we'll be fine. I mean what's the point of drafting all these guys if we're just gonna go out and build up our starting group through free agency anyways? If we went out in free agency, resigned Santana Moss, Rogers, and Brown, signed a guard to plug in at RG, and signed a combo of Cullen Jenkins and a nose tackle, or even just a nose tackle, I'd be content. What about Jarvis Jenkins? I feel like a 2nd round pick should be a quality starter, and plenty 2nd rounders have come in in their first years and contributed plenty. But do we need to go out and get like 5-8 starters in free agency, not counting resigning our own guys? No.

Davin Joseph or Cullen Jenkins...and the good news is that we might actually get Jenkins.

I'm shocked - - SHOCKED - - that no one has mentioned signing free agent, Rex Gosssman as "The Guy"...

NC_Skins 07-25-2011 07:03 PM

Re: If You Could Add Just One
 
I'm going to say Cullen Jenkins because our DL is just that horrible. Ryan Kahlil or Logan Mankins would be a close second.

As a free agent, he is not on the Skins' roster or anyone else's...

The Skins will surely need a veteran presence as a backup to John Beck lest he get injured during the 16-game season. Since Donovan McNabb is clearly not up to the job, who is going to fill that role if not Rex? Patrick Ramsey?

Well a) Rex is coming back and b) I'm sure most realized that for all intents and purposes Rex would be considered a returning Redskin and c) technically he wasn't officially a free agent when this thread began
