Post Redskins sign young tackle Bruce Campbell

Skins signed 25-year old tackle Bruce Campbell to a 1-year contract.

Good signing for depth and camp competition for starting RT spot if we cannot land a better FA to replace Polumbus. He's also insurance if we decide to go the route of a draft pick to fill the RT spot. Rookies are never a sure thing as we learned with our rookie safeties last season.

They are signing non elite talent on the O-Line, not happy about that.

probably didn't sign him as a starter. I see him more as our new punt returner.

It's only Day 2.

O-lineman did not have the demand that defensive backs had on Day 1, so there are plenty of quality starters still out there.

Re: Redskins sign young tackle Bruce Campbell

I remember when Skins fans were crying for the team to draft him in the 2nd round...lol It's a good thing they don't run the team. Here we are today with the guy on the squad (however brief it may be) and for dirt cheap.

It's better than overpaying like the Raiders did Saffold.(who I believe will be playing guard)

42.5 million, $21 million guaranteed, over five years

Typical Raider move. I know they have a ton of loot to blow but c'mon.

Holy crap, I mean Saffold is certainly a good player but that contract seems a little on the high end. And by high I mean reefers......because thats what the Raiders front office does.....since pot is like legal.....in California....I think....not sure....really not sure where I'm going with this.......

Re: Redskins sign young tackle Bruce Campbell

Big men who are great athletes get multiple chances to succeed. It's a one-year contract, so I'm OK with it if it's under $1MM.

Re: Redskins sign young tackle Bruce Campbell

Got him for less than a mill.
He will be competing for a roster spot, not necessarily a starting spot, per Tandler.
Depth to go into training camp with.
No need to take cyanide yet, ladies.

Re: Redskins sign young tackle Bruce Campbell

Low risk...and if Campbell has matured so that he can use his oodles of raw talent, high reward.

I like it.

Re: Redskins sign young tackle Bruce Campbell

I like these young signings. Gives a lot of room to grow. And we COULD pick up a starter in the draft. It's way too early to start panicking.

Re: Redskins sign young tackle Bruce Campbell

First signing where I'm like eh...

Sounds like competition for a backup spot.

Might not even make the team.

I'm fine with giving him a look.
