Re: Current 2014 Free Agents

When do roster moves actually start happening? After the Pro Bowl? I'm ready to see some pink slips!

Re: Current 2014 Free Agents

Honestly, I'd be OK if Monty and Lichtensisneirneitneterger stayed around, but the right side of the line needs to be replaced. There are a ton of potential RTs we could get in FA and as I said, we could get at least a blue chip prospect at G/C. As EARTHQUAKE reminded me in another thread, it's been far too many years since the Randy Thomas/John Jansen/Chris Samuels years. Not to mention how many years since those guys were in their primes?

Redskins’ Joshua Morgan says Mike Shanahan wouldn’t meet with him

I'll post this here. I think Josh Morgan fell out of favor because he didn't want to play special teams. I'd bring him back at a reduced price.

Good read.

It will make you want to bring him back, being that he is one of us at heart. But after some of the things I read about his rehab last offseason and how he had gotten some explosiveness back I was hoping for a big year. I don't have any idea what coaches tape will say about this season all I know is he was a non factor early.

I still see #2 and a slot guy as a need. Maybe we have a slot receiver that is on the team but I don't see a game changer currently here. As far as a 2 we have some hopefuls but the none of the guys have yet to seperate themselves.

I don't know about Shanny, but he fell out of favor with me because he can't play.

Re: Current 2014 Free Agents

A guy like Julian Edelman could be a great slot guy. He will have a higher price tag.

Decker, I don't know if I trust him to be as good post playing in the Broncos offense.

Yeah I mean is he good because of manning? That's a tough call

That would be one for a nfl scout/coach who can watch the all 22 and get a decent idea of what the guy is doing.

He has two better options at WR on his own team.. Maybe three if you count J Thomas

Re: Current 2014 Free Agents

Decker was decent even with Tebow 44-612-8. I'd take him.

And we all know what that entails, but yes to Decker.

Re: Current 2014 Free Agents

Decker likely would come with a steep price tag but he would drive the girls in DC crazy. I've heard several women swoon over him.

Eh he's alright. A little too frat boyish looking for me.

Re: Current 2014 Free Agents

Wouldn’t be upset at all to see Decker here. Ultimately though it’s just reassuring to know we’ll be back in a position to make a move for some of the higher tier guys. That said, I would hope we don’t throw money around like confetti either (although I’m sure Bruce is on top of that). I’ve seen names like Byrd, Ward, Mack, Veldheer all lumped in together as guys we should be prioritising, and granted may all very well be elite players at their respective positions, but are also going to look for elite money. I’d personally prefer young, talented guys who won’t command astronomical fee’s, but whose ability or potential ceiling isn’t a reflection of that. Guys who have shown consistent progress from their rookie year is what I’m saying. I’d also hope durability is heavily considered.

Chris Clemons for example. Maybe not considered an elite safety, but a very good coverage guy all the same who potentially still has a few good years left due to his proven durability (only 3 games missed in 4 seasons). Alterraun Verner is also coming off the back of a very good season and is only 25 *as much as I’d like to believe we’re targeting Vontae Davis at corner, the Colts are much more settled than we are right now and I can’t see either parties wanting a split*. Another who is intriguing me is Linval Joseph. He’d likely be on the more costly side, but if we are indeed sticking to the 3-4 may very well be the kind of candidate who could occupy the NT position and free up Cofield to play end. Not to mention we’d also be weakening a divisional opponent.
