the first time i heard vinny say he was targeting mayo was a year after the draft after mayo had won defensive rookie of the year. for whatver thats worth . . .

in the same interview i heard he said he didnt have any olineman rated as a 1st rounder and thats why he traded back from the 21st spot.

and he had thomas rated as a 1st round talent ala jacobs.

Mayo was definitely on the radar, though even if the Pats didn't take him at 11 it seemed doubtful he would have stuck around until 21.

As Redskins fans, we get so excited over the top free agents in the offseason. We all start ranting and raving, we should go after the big name, and normaly we get him. Then when he does not perform as billed, we start calling for Snyders head. With that said, I was thinking, if we signed Dansby to a long term deal and payed him some stupid amount of money to play up front and a reasonable amount after that, would that be salary cap safe? Such as pay him 40 million up front and four or five million a year after that. That would seem to me to work for future salry caps. Of course then we have another over payed player to rich to care about football.

I don't think teams will be allowed to front load deals like that

the 30% rule. in the uncapped 2010 year, you can only sign a guy for 30% more than he was making last year.

Well, if we here on this thread my not really want Dasby, he apparently wants to be a redskin....

We if we ...huh. Try again.

Not so sure about Dansby, we have much greater needs. I'm sure he would like to come to play for the Redskins, he's thinking about a pay check.

Karlos would be exactly what we need to move to a 3-4 defense. He would be our strong side OLB and Orakpo and Fletcher would be ILB, and McIntosh would be weakside OLB. We could then trade for Carter for a third or forth round draft choice. We could then have a some comibation of Golston, Daniels, Montgomery, Alexander, and Jarmon at the DE and Haynesworth at NT. On passing downs you put Orakpo on the line and we have a monster front seven in my mind. This would make Haynesworth happy, i think, because he could rush the passer and Orakpo could rush the passer from all over. By the way, we can probably get rid of on or both of Daniels and Griffin.

I thought Orakpo would be best suited as a 3-4 OLB where he can rush the QB a la DeMarcus Ware/Terrell Suggs. And didn't Dansby played ILB for the Cardinals 3-4 defense?

Looks like Dansby would like to join the Skins.. I wonder if we will look at him? I think we should, our LB's are AVG at best besides Fletcher.

I think it was through Redskin Insider but I knew on draft day that the Redskins were targeting Mayo and was subsequently bummed when the Patriots picked him. Good thing we got three pass catchers though.

I could see the Giants looking hard at Dansby now with Pierce gone.

I gues your right, I thought that he was an OLB. I feel like the Redskins need a good strongside LB to solidify the front seven.

Dansby would come in here and be a perfect fit for either defense, SLB in a 4-3. Or ILB for a 3-4. He's not that old too. If we stuck to a 4-3 than our LB's would be Dansby Fletcher McIntosh, with Orakpo at DE. If we got a 3-4 than our LB's would be Orakpo, Fletcher, Dansby, ????(draft pick, chris wilson, FA, or Rocky??)

if he could play slb then he could be outside LB in 3-4, right?
