I think the workout bonus part of this smells fishy. Almost like they had to have something to hang the cut on instead of just saying they wanted to go a different direction.

How many years did Springs, Portis, Taylor etc. workout somewhere else?

I don't know why they didn't just cut him a couple of weeks ago. This is kind of stupid if you ask me...

Supposedly this is part of every players contract, but you're right, it did'nt seem to matter in Springs or Portis's case. So it's either something new their doing or they decided the money is more beneficial right now then Taylor.

The workout bonus wasn't part of his present contract. They went to him and tried to add conditions to it after the fact. He didn't agree to it so they cut him.

Taylor, is an ass****.

I wish they would have done this before the Giant signed Canty.

Why? Last years stats look fairly similar to me, and Evans would come for half the $.

Chris Canty 6ft7in 304lbs Age:26
YEAR TEAM G TOT SOLO AST PD SACK FF
2005 DAL 16 35 23 12 0 2.5 1
2006 DAL 16 33 24 9 1 1.0 0
2007 DAL 16 43 30 13 2 3.5 0
2008 DAL 16 37 25 12 5 3.0 0

Demetric Evans 6ft4in 293lbs Age:29
YEAR TEAM G TOT SOLO AST PD SACK FF
2001 DAL 16 23 19 4 2 1.0 0
2002 DAL 4 2 1 1 0 0.0 1
2004 WAS 12 26 17 9 1 2.5 0
2005 WAS 16 22 17 5 2 3.0 0
2006 WAS 16 16 14 2 1 2.0 1
2007 WAS 16 25 18 7 3 1.0 1
2008 WAS 16 33 20 13 2 3.5 0

I really dont see why some people got so excited about Canty. He had a decent year(in a 3-4), but thats alot of money for a guy with 10 career sacks.

and

I agree about Canty. I am glad we didn't get him.

[Nflnick11]

I wish we had done this a few days ago so we could of gotten Canty, but oh well WE HAVE TO RESIGN D EVANS, and now we can also get Angelo Crowell...and the punter hunter smith

I thought getting JT was a good idea at the time. I think its hard to say what might have happened since he was hurt all year and the Skins had him playing on what was the wrong side of the line for him. I think had JT been healthy and playing where he was used to playing things would have turned out better. JT needed to give a little and it appears that he wouldnt so I dont blame the Skins for letting him go.

Pigs sail past my head as I agree with you

[diehardskin2982]

Demetric Evans anyone?

[nephron22]

I'm thinking they are going after a OFA O lineman, I can't think of any DE or SLB worth much at the moment.
