but how would any of us know pashos would be an upgrade? hes just a name im going to assume me and you never heard of until a month ago.

if you knew the 49ers backup o lineman who started what, 4 games last year, then kudos to you. but i doubt that im handing out kudos for a tony pashos.

Select which statement most closely identifies yourself

A) I am Stephon Heyer
B) I am Stephon Heyer's agent
c) I am a close relative of Stephon Heyer
D) I plan on betting against the Redskins in 2010 and ensuring Stephon Heyer starts at RT is the best way to ensure the Redskins lose as many games as possible

Just a word of caution on Holland that you should be aware of.

1. He is the ONLY Unrestricted Free Agent Dallas has and they dont want to resign him.

2. He was acquired in a trade with Denver in 2008 for a 5th round pick. Denver was glad to be rid of him as he had a bevy of fines from the team for consistently showing up to camp overweight and out of shape.

3. Since arriving in Dallas he has not had any real measurable playing time, he is WAAAAY down the depth chart behind guys like Free, Proctor and McQuistan. Free and Proctor are very good, but if anyone is BELOW McQuistan on the depth chart, that person should consider a career change.

Just wanted you guys to be aware of what we as fans have had to endure since acquiring Holland.

Still, lots of holes to be filled either from inside or FA/Draft.

from the sounds of it, we did want him - we just didnt want to spend more on him. as someone else mentioned, its a very odd time for this team to suddenly start being frugal. in an capped year, the skins would be doing exactly what the should be. however, with no cap, there's no reason to not get the guy you want because he wants 1-2MM more than you initially wanted to pay.

youforgot one more option:

E) i dont pretend to know more than I do.

honestly. pashos could very well = a stephen heyer.

holland could very well = a mike williams

dont pick names out of a hat and act like "ohh we should have done this or we should have done that".

im just having trouble understanding fans who are mad we arent signing these no name guys . . . .when we the fans know nothing other than their name and postion.

sandtrapps post highlights that. ohh an o lineman is available? lets sign him and we are 1/5th done with assembling our o line!!!

DOH!!

He played for Shanahan so if we pick him up then I am sure he will fit.

Have you every met Stephon Heyer or Will Montgomery? If the guy is trash I'm sure Shanny will show him the door. If he can beat either one of those two guys, that's a step up. Thanks for getting back. My homeboy was talking about him this morning. From the schimmy I get, he was on the bench last year but did good the year before that.

Economics 101 and Sport Psychology 101 are apparently not Snyder's and lot of Redskins' fans strong point.

It also shows people do not desire to make optimal decisions when given huge load of income.

Yeah, that was the year that Dallas was 21st in rushing and missed the playoffs. So if that is what is defined as "good", well, okay.

I don't how valid this rumor is so take it with a grain of salt, but we could be bringing in Kevin Mawae tomorrow

I wouldn't mind this move at all. Even at his age. It seems interior lineman, particularly centers, tend to play longer late into their careers.

I'm surprised that a board as big and important as ES would even care about what our little ol' site has to say.

time to hand over that nickname matty haha

TK's outburst was pathetic at best; honestly if I were a reporter without many sources why wouldn't you go to a place that has a lot of the info collected together? It's only logical.

But to act like it's all media on there that's slowing stuff down? haha.. beginning of free agency there are just a lot of fans that don't post/have accounts checking it out.

the next guy did back up what I was saying though

Should be at Redskins Park this afternoon, if he's not there already. I'd be surprised if he signed today
