I believe from what I've read that there are more players with first round grades than usual in this draft and many of them are DL's.
I think I'm misusing the word "expecting". I mean I want it to happen, not I think it probably will ...

McGee was a C-, big guy but not playing hard enough, stoping his feet when blocked or double teamed.

Overall Cooley gave a D to the DLs signing, saying since this is obviously a position of need, we have to add a real playmaker this offseason.
Good thing this draft class has a lot of talent at this position!
From what little I've seen of McClain, I really like his motor. He seems to be a good penetrator and he is good versus the run. He was double-teamed a lot. I'm optimistic about his contributions.

McGee definitely has a reputation for not playing hard enough. I'm wondering if Jim Tomsula has a relationship with him and thinks he can motivate him. McGee is big and talented. If he puts out better effort, I think he could be a good player for us.

BTW, I like the Ziggy Hood signing. He played hard for us last season.

I put in an order for Hankins and Zack Brown but the FO doesn't seem to be listening to either of us.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings

I do find it funny that they cut Ricky Jean after he mouthed off about the FO. Why not release the guy weeks ago if you knew you were not going to keep him? It's just seems like more Redskins FO BS.

They, or possibly he (BA), do seem to take everything personally.

Or they were waiting to figure out how things would shake out in the first days of free agency and then decide on any moves with current players. But I'm sure he mouthing off about the FO didn't help.

That's fine. He'll lower his asking price in time. I'd take him on a reasonable one year deal.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings

Darius Butler visiting the Redskins... per Jason LaC

Report: Darius Butler is visiting the Bears

Darius Butler, FS for the Indianapolis Colts at NFL.com

And a 82 PFF rating...... he plays CB and free safety. He would be a nice addition, at the right price.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings

DL is too rich especially if the college draft turns out to be anywhere near as good as speculated.

I'm not overly enthused by the linemen that we've signed so far. The FO better address the interior early in the draft, or the run defense will continue to be a sieve.
