I think you need to reread. He says that London Fletcher will be a Redskin, not D Graham.

Re: Strahan Wants To Be A Redskin

King is saying that the Skins will pay Fletcher a lot, but he doesn't say that we're going to tryt to get Graham. It's two different sentences.

You're right. My bad. I thought he meant that all 3 players were getting big paydays from the Skins.

If we pay Fletcher " a lot" then I have about had it. If we are going to over pay for someone then make it Dock. But don't ask guys to re-structure contracts to overpay for a 32 year old linebacker who does not play for you team, and it not the future of your team. But let's wait and see what happens first.

I also don't put a lot of stock into what King says. Wasn't this the guy who predicted Danny Wuerful to be the next Kurt Warner?

Re: Strahan Wants To Be A Redskin

Whoever started this rumor simply overhead Strahan saying something along these lines....

YouTube - Calloway - I Wanna Be Rich

...and from there deduced that since the Redskins make people rich then Strahan must be thinking about being a Redskin.

Re: Strahan Wants To Be A Redskin

$6M a year for Fletcher?

C'mon, he can't mean his base salary will be $6M right off the bat... we just don't structure deals like that. Maybe he means the entire deal with bonus will work out to $6M per?

Re: Strahan Wants To Be A Redskin

Graham is an interesting name to note though... not sure we could afford that kind of price on a blocking TE though.

Well, if we brought him in, it would be a scheme change. He and Cooley would play TEs (Cooley's role would likely include a lot of his former H-back duties). we wouldn't use a fullback in our base package.

This move would make a lot more sense if Gibbs was calling the plays.

I don't think its going to happen, obviously. I haven't read anywhere that Washington is sniffing around him. Although we need a blocking TE, and Graham is the lone TE that could be worked into the starting offense, his prescence may be a little elaborate with Moss, Randle El, and Cooley already on board. We can't afford to outbid someone for him, and in light of this, its just not going to happen. As much as I would want it to---

Re: Strahan Wants To Be A Redskin

How much would it have cost us to resign Royal last season? I know that's water under the bridge at this point, but I still wish we would have kept him.

The Bills signed him for 5 years, $10M, with a bonus of $2.5M.

Re: Strahan Wants To Be A Redskin

I heard at the combine that Joe Theismann is making a comeback and plans to sign with the Redskins for 5 mil per year as a back-up to JC.

Re: Strahan Wants To Be A Redskin

Strahan wants to come here cause his wife took his ass to the cleaners and he needs money. She took most of the money he had saved. For the life of me I don't know why some of these guys get married. Why do it if you want to sleep around? You have too much $ at risk. She got something like 20 million and he had a total of 27 million. She really got his ass good. That's enough $ to OJ her ass! Just kidding. But with the way some women throw themselves at these guys it's stupid to get married cause you know what's going to eventually happen.

If I were one of these high profile guys I would do two things.

1. Never get married until I got "it" out of my system
2. ALWAYS WEAR A CONDOM.
3. I'm not one of them so who knows how I would act.

I'm guessing that if we warpathers had half of the options that these players do, 75% of us would have at least two kids by two different women. If you were out drinking and you had 6 of the most beautiful women trying to take you to bed, wouldn't you probably slip up here and there even if you knew they were just after your fame, money, or both?
