What is your worst case off-season/draft?

Recommended Posts

Before this gets derailed into another Kirk Cousins thread, simply state whether or not your worst case scenario involves Kirk re-signing or leaving. You don't have to specify how or why as to not begin more debate on him. 

That being said, here is my worst case scenario for the Redskins.

Our Free Agents: (only touching on the ones that matter)

  1. Breeland: Re-signs, because the FO thinks that he is better than he actually is, to a contract he isnt worth (8mill/year)
  2. Murphy: Re-signs to a multi year contract for more than he is worth. (Honestly I wouldnt resign him for vet min, only good year was when he got popped for PEDs)
  3. Pryor: Re-signs for another 1 year contract because the FO thinks there is still untapped potential
  4. Cousins: FO thinks about slapping the tag on him again, but ultimately lets him go untethered into Free Agency and we only recoup a 3rd comp back
  5. Brown: FO doesnt think he is worth what he is asking, and lets him walk, to re-sign:
  6. Compton & Foster: Why not bring these two studs back right? (Eye roll)

Now that we have sunk an awful lot of money into subpar players, we can hardly afford to sign any FAs, but we come out like gangbuster with this group.

New Free Agents: 

  1. QB Chad Henne (Colt McCoys potential competition/back-up)
  2. FS Jarius Byrd
  3. WR Tavarres King
  4. ILB Anthony Hitchens 

(All signed to contracts above their market value)

Draft:

  1. Redskins trade up with Cleveland Browns (#4 overall) to select Baker Mayfield. Redskins give up #1, 2, 3 and next years #1 and 2.
  2. Redskins 4th round pick, they draft another WR because why not. Dante Pettis WR University of Washington
  3. Rest of picks are fodder that don't substantiate any value to the team and eventually get cut or end up on IR during the season.

It is at this point that the Redskins declare that they have a competitive team and are looking to seriously contend in the NFC East again, assuming they can stay healthy.

This is, in my mind, the worst case scenario. This doesn't take into consideration the idiotic things that our FO could do, like give Bruce Allen more power or hire a GM and proceed to fire him shortly after blaming him for the laughingstock that we have become. I didn't want to get into any of that. Unfortunately, I think most of it could be a possibility.

What is your worst case scenario?

 

(P.S. I am holding out hope that we can do the right thing, like resigning Kirk to a fair market value deal, resigning Zach Brown to a competitive but fair deal, letting our dead weight (Pryor, Breeland, Compton, Foster, Murphy, Paul, Lauvao) go and don't look back. Drafting or signing a starting tier NT (finally) to anchor the middle of our defense and bringing in a RB that can produce even with lackluster blocking. Signing/Drafting (prefer signing) a WR1 to allow Doctson more time to develop into a solid #2 (Maybe Allen Robinson from Jacksonville) and drafting a starting caliber LG. Of course most of this is naive and blasphemous, but a guy can dream right)

Agreed.

Agreed.

This one would depend on his cost and whether we did this instead of looking for another WR.  If we signed him to another deal like this year and didn't even sniff at another starting WR then I agree.

Recouping a 3rd round comp pick for Cousins is probably one of the best case scenarios if he leaves.

I agree, I think they need to prioritize resigning him.

I would bring Foster back on a cheap deal if possible.  Why not?  He's solid vs the run.  Compton sucks.

Dear god why.  This would be terrible.

Washed up overpriced Safety.  That sounds a lot like Dan Snyder to me.

WR Tavarres King

I had to look up who this guy was.  No thank you.

Overrated Ex-Cowboy defender?  We will 100% sign him for 10x what he's worth.

Hahahahaha I would literally stop watching Redskins games after this.

We actually another WR, so I don't see why this would be so bad?

Redskins standard operating procedure.

Gonna repeat what SlappyMC (the OP) has asked us ALL to do!!

Please keep this in mind. I love a good Kirk debate and I sincerely wish you guys would keep posting stuff.

Just please honor his request.

I have to say I agree with most of Slappy MC’s post & Mknight’s post.

Especially Mknight who hit the nail on the head.

Basically, my nightmare offseason scenario would be Baker Mayfield replacing our qb from the last 3 years. 

I’d be tempted to stop watching the Redskins - eventhough I wouldn’t - I sure damn would be tempted to not ever watch a Redskins game again.

I can live with Breeland, Pryor and Murphy being re-signed and Compton being re-signed (it will be a vet min, so who cares?) and I can live with the Redskins signing Byrd, King and Hitchens and drafting Pettis (we need to do something at starting WR opposite Doctson) but I surely could not live with the qb scenario that Slappy MC put forth.

If Kirk is gone then so be it, but I don’t want to trade up for another qb and I’d take any qb starting for the Redskins who’s projected to go in the first few rounds or Colt Mccoy starting over acquiring Baker Mayfield.
