Really hope Montgomery gets something. Think he would be good in the defensive scheme change.

if he gets seriously injured, hes done for his career. if he gets a hammy injury and misses 5 games next year, he goes into a FA with question marks that would diminish his opportunity to get a good deal.

if we sign dansby to a multi year deal, i think rocky will be real pissed. we drafted this guy, watch him slowly develop into a decent linebacker, then when he is set to hit FA after playing on a 5 yr rookie deal we slap him with a 1 yr 1 million dollar tender?

rocky = dansby, atleast stats wise they are almost identical.

lets low ball a skins player who has done nothing try and do what he is asked, and then give money to a FA linebacker who wants to get paid? havent we heard this story before? dont we know how it will end?

dont give me that "its a business" crap. right, its a business when we are going to low ball your worth b/c we can but it's "family" when we hit pre-season and regular season and need you to go out and play your hardest without worrying about injury.

how willing is rocky going to be to sacrifice his body for the team after this?

I was kinda surprised to see that; Shanahan must have seen something in him.. Would be definitely nice if we get 2nd round pick for him, although it's not the likely scenario..

Rocky is upset about being tendered; he apparently wants a extension contract or move onto other team.. Hopefully he (and the coaches) will change their opinions on each other through out the season..

I was surprised as well. I'm not the biggest Heyer fan but I guess Shanahan wants to keep him for depth. He's a decent backup.

Rocky just needs to shut up and play. If he has another productive season, I can definitely see them offering him an extension at some point.

That might be the main reason - after all, we literally have no decent depth on O-line beside few guys.. I can understand this move, I guess..

Edit: I used to be a fan of Heyer; I was hoping that he would improve throughout the season with experiences.. But apparently, he hasn't improved much and coaches didn't have any faith in him.. So..

We need to give up the 1st rounder and try and make a run at this punk.

Well, I know if we tried trading Heyer for Bushrod, that wouldn't work, maybe we could throw in a little something-something to get Bushrod, because he IS an upgrade over Heyer, thats for sure.

If I'm not mistaken the only players left to tender are JC, C.Rogers, and Monty. What time is the deadline to tender RFA's? I wonder if they're waiting until the last minute to see if they can work out a trade before the deadline?

Rocky will likely be traded regardless. In a 3-4, you need 2 starting pass rushing 3-4 OLBs(i.e Ware and Spencer,, Harrison and whoever is across from him) and depth to back them up. Rocky doesn't fit that bill.

Filed to ESPN: Redskins placed first-round tender on QB Jason Campbell. Tender is 110 percent of last year's base salary, over $3.1 million.
Not the 1st and 3rd. Don't know that it really mattered much.

rocky has shut up and played for 5 seasons under his rookie contract. imo this is a bad move for team chemistry and a bad message to send to our players.

Bad for team chemistry? Every team in the NFL is doing the same exact thing?? The players should be pissed at the players union for allowing this to happen. The Redskins are simply doing what they're supposed to be doing.

Saying it will affect the locker room and team chemistry is a bit of a reach...

Well Florio commented that by only giving Brandon Marshall a 1st round tender, the Broncos were essentially letting teams know they were ready to move him. It could be the same here - the skins are placing a lower tender on him to let teams know we want to move him. Or, knowing no one would give up a first for him, let alone a first and a third, the skins just offered him the lower of the two tenders.
