    Redskins have signed Cowboys DE Jason Hatcher

      I am torn on Hatcher, he had his best season last year but will be 32 when the season starts. He's not going to be a player we build around for the future, but he will certainly help next year and solidify one of the two end spots.

        We gave him a 4 year 27.5M dollar deal

          I don't think we have much left in cap space now.

            Was that Hatcher, or in response to the Tracy Porter signing? For Porter, I'm not upset about it. If we gave that to Hatcher, what a dumb move.

              It was for Hatcher.

              Redskins apparently are about to sign ILB Akeem Jordan as well. Seems like improving the Front 7 was the #1 priority in FA

                Wow.......I know he won't see all of that deal, but I question handing that guaranteed money to a position where we actually have depth, and to someone who is 32 years old.

                We may be going with improving the front seven over the secondary to improve the pass-rush, and hope that makes the lack of talent at DB less of a factor, or they think the draft picks we invested last year, plus Porter, are enough.

                  Taking a page from Peter Angelos' handbook?

                  We've signed depth. Particularly at ILB and DE.

                  The draft will have to focus on a safety and offensive line depth. Given how much depth their is in this year's draft class at offensive line, this makes sense. I expect the Redskins to mortgage a bit of the future, get in to the mid to high 20s in the first round, and take a safety.

                  O Absalom, my son, my son!"

                    Eesh . . . did Allen panic when he whiffed on the safeties and over pay?

                        Makes no sense to me unless he signs for very little.

                          The Redskins released C Will Montgomery. The move frees up 1.75M in cap space

                            So I guess the determination still needs to be made on Chris Chester, as both he and Lichensteiger can play at center. Chester also played LG in college, so we could see him there as well.

                            I just hope we aren't going to count on LeRiberious. He showed up almost 40 pounds overweight to camp last year, and never dressed for a game.

                              But Tracy Porter is awful. If he gets significant playing time then your secondary is in real trouble.
