Wow he got his money...

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

Wow, twice a year we will see him just really pissed off. It's Joe Gibbs modern era LT nightmare all over again! Ouch, was really hoping he would have left the division. Oh well, guess we will find ways to beat him when he is out of position.

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

This really sucks. I dont wish anything bad on the guy because i really like him but im sure he will have his injury issues and hopefully it will be when we are playing him. Although im sure he will want to play against us every chance he gets

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

Now that's 2 Ex Skins LBs that have gone over to the Blue side. That sucks

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

Not good. But if anyone will know how to exploit him it will be Gibbs / Williams. I am worried about him and Pierce and our signals, though.

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

Eh, not concerned. Good for him that he got his money. I am more concerned with our players playing to their abilities than who anyone else has. If they do what they're capable of then I think it won't much matter who is on the other side of the ball.

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

Isn't good ? Why fear this guy. He's just like any other good player that we have to see. So the F*&K What if he wen't to New York ? Who here really didn't see this coming ? If you ACTUALLY thought he was going somewhere else then you did just what he wanted you to do. F - the Giants, I can't wait until that game comes up. Pierce knew the signals in the second game and did it help,... NO. The first game yeah it did, they will change things here and there to offset them gicing away the calls just like they did for the second meeting. I'm pissed he's there, yeah he's a "playmaker" that the Skins have to worry about but man, he's 1 guy out of 11 on the field for the Giants' D. He and his folks will have to line up against our Offense, I'm confident the offense will be fine. I wish he went somewhere else but it was plain to see that he was going to New York no matter what.

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

Arrington and Pierce are not familiar with Al Saunders offense...so, I'm not too worried. 7 year 49 million....isn't that less money than what he would have made as a Redskin? Do you think we would have been able to keep him if he redid his contract for less money?

he would have made more under his old deal, but there was no way to really work the numbers to keep him and get everyone in FA we targetted.

LBs and RBs are the most replaceable positions, we'll find someone.

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

Remember when we got Jeremiah Trotter and it was all about how he'd be so fired up to play in the same division as the Eagles that we'd burn them twice a year? And we got Jessie Armstead and it was watch out NY Giants, JA is on a mission?....Yeah, exactly

Maybe LaVar will make some big plays against and win some personal battles. But the Washington Redskins team will still win the war.

[B]Giants | Team concerned about Arrington's first physical[/B]

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

What number will Arrington wear I wonder? Surely the Ginats have retired the number 56 in honor of a certain other linebacker named Lawrence Taylor.

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

yeah, its too much money... a lot is contingent on him playing well though... at least that's what a NY paper was writing.

Re: Lavar and Giants agree on deal
 

thatguy,what kind of signing bonus did he get?
