2013 Free Agents

GWinSkins83 · 01-15-2013, 07:46 AM

If you notice the Seahawks and 49ers they give their QBs 5 good seconds in a great pocket. And if Wilson or Colin reads man they have the a whole field of green infront of them. They can basically pickup 10 yards each scramble with no one around them. Its their Oline that makes that possible. Sorry but Polumbus needs to be a backup not a starter. I seen dude just get lifted off the turf to many times for my liking.

i have to admit, i haven't watched any tape on him, but i remember his rookie year on hard knocks, he had a massive rack. i wouldn't expect him to fit our scheme.

someone w more knowledge, shine some light upon my darkness.

Smith is big but very athletic for his size. He can excell in this system. Its not how big you are its can you block in space, quick to the second level, and can you block on the move. Andre Smith can do those things.

I didn't say that, but I think it can be done without spending big on a free agent. It hasn't been Shanahan's style to spend big on the line outside of left tackle.

Also, it's worth pointing out he got injured outside of the pocket, both with his knee and with the concussion.

Also... Tell me Dwayne Bowe wouldn't be an awesome fit. He's really matured and developed into consistent borderline at times elite receiver. He'd do well here. Goodbye Morgan.

That would be a ton of cap space dedicated to your top WRs. Garcon is already the top dog here.

He wouldn't be an awesome fit Vinny. He is still not consistent and comes with all the wrong attitude.

Quote:

"While Bowe tries, and often tries too hard, he comes across as unreliable, difficult to read and consumed by ego," Kent Babb of the Kansas City Star wrote Monday. "Bowe is good, but he's not elite. Too many drops. Flawed route-running. Having no idea how his words sometimes make him sound. He should've hoped for, but not expected, a monster payday, and now he'll have to wait several months for another swing."

He wants the big pay day and, finally, those are not the players we are going after. I'll take Morgan and his consistent downfield blocking, thank you very much.

Thank you. The only thing Bowe is "consistent" at, is being inconsistent. No way would I drop big money on this guy. (even if I'm the Chiefs)

Redskins just signed Garcon to a bid deal, why would they sign another big name receiver who obviously would demand a lot of money.

As far as tackles go, a lot of these upcoming free agents will be franchised or resigned by their teams. They are all pretty much under 30 years old, which means if they are let go they will demand a 10+ million dollar per year contract. You can sign 3 or 4 essential role players for that much money. Plus this is one of the best years to draft a tackle if you need one. But it is the redskins and even during Shanahan's tenure you know they will make one big off season splash.

JoeRedskin · 01-15-2013, 09:21 AM

If they do make "one big splash", I hope it is for Byrd.

Look for the Redskins to possibly add a...stud...on the interior

I doubt that he does not at least get franchised. They resign everyone in Buffalo, and the fans, players and GM seem to love Byrd.

Randy Starks??? Has played in a 3-4 before. Only free agent d-linemen in my opinion worth looking at.

I'm assuming you're talking about the DL and not the interior of the OL.

If it ain't Starks, it must be Seymour or Henry Melton. (Darkhorses would be the 2 Seattle guys, Branch and Jason Jones)

If you're talking trade, maybe Darnell Dockett?

When Vinny was running the show around here, I could pretty much guess who he would go after in FA and the first couple rounds of the draft. Now, with Shanny in charge, I usually don't have a clue.

There is a moral in this. If Vinny was using conventional fan "wisdom" to make his picks, it's no wonder he failed on so many of them. Most of us fans don't know jack. I know I don't.

So I take a certain amount of comfort in anticipating that Shanny and his staff will do professional evaluations and add players in FA and the draft that I never even thought of or knew anything about, such as Alfred Morris.

But that won't stop me from speculating.
