Re: 2017 Redskins Salary Cap Status
Thompson had several game changing plays this season. He a big time quiet baller...I think he is extension material.
He woulda had another big play last weekend end of game if it wasn't for that damn Snacks Harrison...

Re: 2017 Redskins Salary Cap Status
That's a good point. They usually don't come in ready to pick up the blitz, though. Luckily we could keep Thompson without spending much dough. My issue with him is durability. He played all 16 this season, but can he do it again?

Re: 2017 Redskins Salary Cap Status
He did his job and then some this year, whether it was blitz pickups, running the ball, or being Kirk's check down option when plays broke down. He's worth the 2nd round tender at minimum, but if they gave him a longer deal I'd be fine with it. He's not going to break the bank and we know he's capable of being our 3rd down back, which is all we need him to be. It's a no-brainer for me.

Re: 2017 Redskins Salary Cap Status
a good defensive coordinator might make a player out of Earl Wolff....he just signed reserve/futures contract with the Redskins

Re: 2017 Redskins Salary Cap Status
I saw that, but he still managed to slow him down, just not enough. I'm putting that partially on Kirk for not recognizing the blitz though. Besides, as much as I hate to admit it there is a reason Landon Collins is being touted as a potential all-pro. Talented players make plays, that's what they're paid to do. One play doesn't make or break him.

Re: 2017 Redskins Salary Cap Status
OP edited to reflect $3.0M saved due to retirement of Kory Lichtensteiger. Saves $3.5M on the cap, then one player gets added back to the rule of 51 at ($0.5M).
Net impact $3.0M saved.

Re: 2017 Redskins Salary Cap Status
does his retirement have the same impact on the cap as if we had cut him?

Re: 2017 Redskins Salary Cap Status
Does anyone give updates on the salary cap? Wondering how we stand, with FA signings including Pryor, Cousins franchise tag.. We still need DL in my view, hoping Logan signs -- but not sure how much more we have to spend..

Re: 2017 Redskins Salary Cap Status
Realistically, how much cap space would signing Kirk long term and converting the base salary to bonus free up this year to sign more defensive talent?
Anybody have an educated guess?
