Commanders Philip Daniels carted off field w/torn ACL...done for year

[Mansta54]

What exactly is a winner considered? Do you actually have to win something in the playoffs to be considered a winner these days? If thats the case, there might be another team in these quarters that Taylor wouldn't want to go to as well.

And how to you consider the Commanders LB core as hurting? They were one of the strongest aspects of this team last year. If your basing that on just McIntosh coming off an injury, thats laughable.

McIntosh coming off major knee surgery, Fletcher old as dirt, and Washington played injured all last season and really wasn't productive at all...

I don't know about that, I think Spencer could have played as well as Ellis if he played full time, especially at the end of the year.

RARELY is a funny term isn't? Always funny to see someone single out one instance from their team out of 20-25 lineman that get drafted every year,

:laugh2:

Is this a joke?

Choice will be fortunate to carry the ball 30 times this year. A special teamer is more valuable than two starters? And it isn't just about Ayodele and Fasano, there was Ferguson as well.

Ayodele is an average starter

Fasano sucks in the redzone, which is what we want our #2 TE to be good at

what did you really expect to get for Ferguson? and it's not like he fit the scheme, he's not an upfield, pursuit player

Dude you can come on this board and front all you want but your BUMS are falling apart and are lead by a clueless HC. There's a reason yall are projected to finish DEAD LAST.. Your responses are amusing though..

Just because someone is old as dirt doesnt make them productive? Fletcher has put up over 100 tackles each of the last years, despite being "old as dirt" . Washington, despite missing a couple games last year, still performed well for the defense. If he was injured most of last year, im excited to see what he will do once healthy again, and put up numbers like he did his first year in washington. McIntosh is the only one that you can't completly vouge for, however, he is supposed to make a return before preseason begins. He came on well last year, I can't imagine his play will drop off too much from the injury. But then again, im not a doctor and I can't predict this stuff, so who knows

 

[Primetime42]

The deal is done.

Taylor headed to Washington.

You stated rarely. Spencer was the last player in that position drafted and last year was his rookie year. I guess Dallas drafts better than "rarely", maybe the rarely only applies to the Skins.

What was Daniels doing on the field during 7 on 7 drills anyway?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Steve Walsh wasn't going to be a starter for us, but he was still an asset and Jimmy Johnson got value for his asset when he traded him to the Saints for three good picks.

You can bad mouth Ayodele all you want, but in return you're also insulting Bobby Carpenter and Kevin Burnett because they weren't good enough to beat him out in Wade or Parcells' scheme. Ayodele is a mediocre starter, but very good depth who has played several positions.

The trades seemed utterly pointless to me, and I don't know what the Cowboys got out of it. We traded for immediate cap room, but cap room isn't an issue immediately. We supposedly traded for extra draft picks, but then we had more draft picks than we knew what to do with and ended up trading them away for future picks. We traded Fassano away because he was just a backup TE, and then we draft another backup TE in the 2nd round. Fasano better prove to be utterly useless or Bennett better be a huge weapon for it to make any sense ... I have a feeling neither will happen ... or that angle doesn't make any sense either.

If you're just giving Ferguson away for a 7th round draft pick, why not bring him to camp as an insurance plan in case Ratliff or Tank blow out a knee in a preseason game. If he's not needed, just give him away for nothing in August instead of April.

we got 2, 6ths for Ferg

and holding these trades to the Walsh trade is kind of ridiculous, because teams value draft picks much more than they did in the 80's and 90's because of the salary cap and the dearth of quality free agents

probably running drills without DBs

Sirius Radio says Taylor to DC for a 2nd rounder. They quote Glazer saying "It's a done deal."

 

[Bob Sacamano]

A couple problems. First, Taylor wants to play for a winner. If the decaying corpse of Joe Gibbs couldn't get it done in 4 seasons, I'm pretty sure that Jimmy Zorn and company know they're just there as a stopgap until Spurrier's contract with the Gamecocks runs out and Snyder can get back to recycling coaches. Second, the Commanders are lacking in some of the key positions required to be considered an "NFL franchise" like coach, QB, WR, O-line, now D-line (haha, just lovely), LB, SS, etc. So I'm not sure that it's even legal for the Dolphins to get into trade discussions with a pseudo-AFL team.

But you're right, if those things get ironed out, than I am sure the Skins have the potential to acquire him at "a reasonable price" like you said since that's how Snyder acquires every one of his players. On 2nd thought, you kids have really built a winner out there in DC. If only there were a WNFL league to really show off all your hard work...

:laugh2: :laugh1: awesum

I don't know whats in the water up in Germantown, but would you like to ship some of that down to me? I would love to tell the future.

Ahh, those were words out of Taylors mouth that he wanted to play just 1 more year.. He told his own future... By the way, the water is good here in Germantown though..

Fred Smoot must be jumping up and down right now
