2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

[Monkeydad]

We need to step in and steal Brandon Carr out from under the Cowboys, who are trying to fit a deal in with their cap hell.

Mike Adams from the Browns is available. Steve Gregory from SD.

William Gay from the Steelers is available at CB.


All of these guys other than Carr would be reserves, not solutions...but we need both.

I would do this if we were to plan to turn one of our CBs into a Safety. In the meantime, I'd like for the team to address that position since we have no starters on the roster.

This is going to be a classic case of 'you can't fix it all in one offseason' deals. They will likely try to go with Gomes at SS and sign a free agent to play FS or convert Barnes to a FS-although I think he's a bit slow and stiff for that position.

Yup. Although I hope we make some moves, reluctantly I am mentally preparing to just accept that safety will be a weakness for us. Griffin will need to put up a lot of points to overcome deficits in our secondary.

With Jenkins coming back and everyone else another year into the scheme it is a good possibility that pressure on the QB will increase which could (could) hide any potential weaknesses in the secondary.

Time will tell, and there are a lot of moves left to be made.

You can't fix everything in one offseason, however, it is silly to get another CB when we have two starters. Yes, I know our starting CBs are not perfect, but we have no starters at safety. As I said, I'd be fine with taking a CB if we are moving one our current CBs into the safety spot.
