Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
Carlos isn't sharp, and he drops interceptions, but I just don't get the hate for a guy that can be a very good corner in this league and for this team.

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
Speaking for myself, it's the attitude he's displayed during his Redskins tenure that has constantly rubbed me the wrong way. It's been one obnoxious episode after another. However, I do think he's a very decent player who is underrated by Redskins fan. It's possible for me to separate my hate for Carlos the weird-faced kvetch and grudging respect for Carlos the player, although others have a harder time.

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
When Los dropped the pick 6 against Seattle in the '05 playoffs I think he somehow laid out the rest of his career path. He's underwhelming at best...when he gets burned or jams his hooves at the pigskin I want to shoot him w/ a pellet gun.

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
Also Los should be happy we tendered him for a 1st round pick. It shows the team likes him and wants to try to keep him. As most have said we probubly will only get a 2nd or 3rd out of it. Now had we started with that I could see his complaint.

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
I still don't think a 1st is all that bad. Will another team give us that for him? Maybe one who is despirate or thinks they are just one player away from the SB but I doubt it. I'm guessing his actuall value is more around a 2nd or 3rd.

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
Ever since the Denver game i could care less if he was still a Redskin, if we get something for him even better.

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
i read this and felt he was more upset about not getting paid on a long-term deal while UFA's most definitely will.
I thought tendering Heyer at a 2nd was a laugh. I wouldn't trade the last pick in the 7th for him. |

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
Truth is the Redskins need Carlos Rogers and Carlos Rogers needs the Redskins. Rogers wouldn't command as much as he thinks on the market and the Redskins, quite frankly, don't have much behind him by way of proven talent. Actually, I'd probably take either of Dallas' corners over Rogers in a starting situation. So minus Rogers' bitching and moaning, I think this will work out just fine for both parties.
After five seasons in the NFL he just hasn't proven much. That's not even debatable. Sure he's shown flashes here and there, and is probably still a considered a good raw talent, but raw talent don't win many games at this level. Cornerbacks need to do two things very well: 1) cover the opponent's wideout, and 2) catch interceptions. Unfortunately, Rogers has been okay at the first and downright horrible at the second.

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
If we can sign Dunta Robinson from the Texans then I would attempt to get no less than a 3rd and 6th rd pick for Carlos. Would rather have a 2nd rd pick but not sure if we could get that right now.

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
what a moron, i've never beena fan of carlos rogers anyways...always gets torched! and yes I think joe haden would look good in the B/G, but he did run a bad 40 time...which hopefully means he'll drop to us in the 2nd maybe? But, think of it this way...he did cover aj green and julio jones quite well.

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
I'm really over Carlos Rogers at this point. I mean, the guy does nothing but run his mouth and inevitably follows it up with a so-so game. He's a "starting caliber corner" insofar as there aren't that many in the league that are great, but at this point, I put him (and Hall) in the middle of the pack. (at least Hall can catch) Carlos complains and complains about the front office and a lot of times, I think he has a point, then he goes out and looks like trash on a double move and does nothing to help his team win. I'm just way over his act.
I think Carlos could use a change of scenery. I don't think he's the type of guy I'd want in my locker room if I were Mike Shanahan and I don't think he's too far away from being Clinton Portis at this point (as far as creating problems with the team). Carlos Rogers is way more trouble than he's worth. I really don't want to hear about he deserves a big contract for one very good 8 game stretch in his entire career. |

Re: Rogers tendered-whines about it
His Agent was probably telling him they had offers from other teams coming their way.
