The only reason we aren't working with him on a contract is TW wants 20millionish a year. Dunbar is a different situation. I just think it was mishandled. How has Dunbar been mishandled? The guy has one year left on his current contract and he's missed almost half of the games he’s started on this current contract. The dude needs to earn a pay raise, and he hasn'tyet. I don't see another team automatically giving him a new contract either w/o him earning it first. Like Trent, Dunny’s camp is totally overshooting his value.

Donald Paraham? Yes we had him and it's hard to tell if he's better then any TE we currently have on our roster. He wasn't good enough to make an active NFL roster last year. The competition in the XFL is mostly practice squad level players or worse. Parham playing well in the XFL is basically equivalent to him playing awesome in the 4th preseason game when most of the guys he's playing against aren't going go make an NFL roster. That being said, I do wish we would give Parham a work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ovfd55 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 So I'd take Darby at CB,Expect Logan Ryan who would be my 2nd choice of ones still on market.If I could get Xavier Rhodes cheap enough I'd take him on a 1 year prove it deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all have the potential to be better then Dunny anyway; especially Logan Ryan & Xavier Rhodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link please. I have yet to hear anything from either him, the redskins or his agent. We just got fleeced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to hear anything from either him, the redskins or his agent. We just got fleeced. I heard on the radio he wanted paid more then $10 m per year. He wanted to be paid 3 times what he's making now. I'll look for it. It's a complicated trade. He didn't want to be here, he wanted a new deal and he has missed 15 games of the games he’s started in his career. It's hard to find value in that player. We are upset bc we know his value when he’s 100% and if he plays every game, but he doesn't or hasn't. We are valuing him in a trade more on his value rather than what he’s been - which is a good/sometimes great but often injured starter.

Like Chad Dukes or Sheehan or some talk show host? The radio is speculation. It is not reporting. Their job is speculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A TRAIN 89 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 It’s evident to me that Ron Rivera doesn’t believe this team can compete in 2020. It’s obvious based on how FA has unfolded thus far. He is purging the roster of the malcontents, the oft-injured, the overpaid and the not productive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess he could get $12M now, but could be in for a big payday if he plays well in 2020. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not going to get a new contract from Seattle that pays him that much - if ever - until he proves he's worth it. Seattle didn't even re-sign Clowney yet who helped them get to the playoffs last year and made some big plays in the playoff game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsin2013 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Julie Donaldson reported this morning that Smith won't be playing this year. Not official and kind of off the cuff. But that's another $12M in cap space savings that will be given to the Skins this year or split over the next two years. Ultimately will push Skins to 2nd or 3rd most cap space in the NFL. Question is, how the hell are they gonna spend it? Clowney reported to want $18 to $20M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think is looking very much looking like a strip down and rebuild. Lots of depth signings, releasing those that don't want to be here. Tons of cap space left. I'd like to see a big trade back... net a OT, WR, OLB/DE, TE... in the first 4 to 5 picks. But the trade back has to be offered. If so, I'm in. If the big trade back isn't presented, I'm okay with selecting Young too. I'd like to see the Skins use some of this cap space to re-sign some of our own. Clowney would be a nice piece, especially if we trade back. But not at $18 to $20M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
