turtle28 Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 No brainer. Good contract by Allen & Schafer that allows us to get out of the deal after two years while gaining $2.5 million in cap space to help add a good FA or a back up piece. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combined with a weak WR class, the Redskins had to overpay for Richardson, who also had injury issues then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but sometimes you have to play the cap game even with a bad signing. He should've never been signed to begin with. I hate paying guys after one good year, especially if it's their walk year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year cutting him would’ve cost us cap space. It made sense to hold on to him for one more season to see what we could get out of him. Thanks to Kyle Smith & Jay, we discovered Terry who replaced PRich in the role we signed him to fill in 2018. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but you have to sign some players to take a chance on them really helping your team. It’s not like PRich doesn’t have talent, his problem was injuries. Gruden wanted to take a chance that he could stay healthy and his talent would show again like it did in 2017. It was a risk worth taking. I believe in 2018 we still have around $10 million in cap space when the season started before all of the injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His 16.0 YPC was much higher than his previous seasons. He had one big season at Colorado and that was it. It was not a risk worth taking at 5 years, $40 million with half of that guaranteed money. Absolutely ridiculous. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was worth the shot. He’s a deep threat and Jay saw that on film and we needed that since Bruce Allen stupidly refused to re-sign Djax. It didn’t work out but the risk was worth it IMO. I’m so thankful they took Terry last year. What a great pick that was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
