Skins have signed Dante Barnes from Norfolk State, CB, 6'1, 194
Source?

Don’t want to get banned do you?

we dont drink, we dont smoke,

Norfolk, Norfolk!!!!!

Just back from practice

What did I miss?

What were you practicing?
Football
Did you score?
Not with the cheerleaders
naw, did that in college

not funny

eventhough I did laugh a tad

I didn't know Andy Dick and Landon Donovan went to UCLA
I always score
flogging the dolphin?
never heard that one before
Chafing the carrot
yeah, heard that one

I tought Rekka “punching the clown yesterday”

Punching the clown's sandbag
Chris Chester signed

I don’t know when you left though.

Yeah, saw that one
Did you see Vince Young?
Is a mental midget and will be the backup to the dog killer in Philly.

First guessing..

1 more offensive lineman and I can rest easy.
If we can get 1 more OL

we’ll be in fantastic shape.

...after grabbing 2 more.
Quick question for you guys who look at the other SB Nation blogs

Does anyone else get such ridiculous feedback and following as us? I mean this is the 4th thread today and each one has had a ridiculous number of comments.

I think the Chiefs site is the most active stats-wise
We're definitely a close second though

From what I can tell looking at the Boys and the Giants, unless the East is just a particularly slow division blog-wise.

and its probably that

SB nation isn’t their primary blog.. there are a lot of other sites the other NFC east teams are on

The baseball sites are REALLY active

the Braves blog I frequent is on a completely different level. They regularly have 2 open threads for games (2000 comments EVERY DAY) and each of their articles gets several hundred comments. But that’s because baseball attracts nerds.

You've never been to the Nats one, its nauseating
As someone with almost 9,000 comments on said Braves blog I say...

Bite me :)

Are you watching the game?

crazy finishes the last two nights

Well I'm watching a tarp sit on a field...

But yeah, don’t know when the last time I didn’t watch at least part of a Bravos game was.

Yeah when I turned it on

I was surprised they were playing

It happened quite suddenly.
I blame Ted Turner
I miss Ted
I miss John Rocker.

But only because I’m not a Brave’s fan

I miss his attitude
Key word: ridiculous
adj. deserving or worthy of ridicule or derision
I went on the

Girls’ site, and they were talking about Captain America and the Avengers.

Black Shoe Diaries

A Penn State blog I’m a fan of gets a very good amount of activity

Also, EDSBS obviously, but you all probably knew that already

Never heard of it

but using my keen powers of deduction I’m guessing…Every Day Sucks But Sunday?

Basically the college version of Kissing Suzy Kolber if that means anything to you

Funniest blog on the nets

That means a lot to me

i’ll check it out.

And the best part about it would be that Spencer Hall is a Gators fan.

Ah, a fan after my own heart

I frequent Black Shoes

Good times
R U a Penn Stater?
Yup

a senior

Nice

2001 for me…….I’m old

Longshot at PSU, but

did you know Dave Joyce?

I owe Dave 20 bucks.

Looking back I feel terrible, that poor cow.

I’ve got nothing against Penn State as a school. But the guys that run that blog and as such are responsible for that whole conference re-draft thing…

Black Shoe Diaries…have picked the worst teams. Aside from the Gators of course. It’s a good thing that I don’t care one bit for the re-draft thing, otherwise, I’d vent my frustration. I believe this is the first and only.

Wait, what?

I thought that BC blog was behind it. I don’t even recall seeing mention of it on BSD, though maybe I’ve just forgotten. I remember Testudo Times covering it, though

However, you may or may not know that BSD recently just completely changed who runs the blog now. They basically merged together a bunch of PSU blogs as well as a couple other guys, and it’s improved because of it IMO

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Crap. Never mind. I’m thinking of Black Heart Gold Pants. Y’all Big 10 people are the same to me. Haha.

My bad. You’re right. Carry on. I’ve never been to the Penn State blog then. Shows how much I actually care about the conference re-draft thing.

NBD

That’s right, it was BHGP. That whole idea is retarded, but BHGP can have some funny stuff from time to time. Usually when they get in arguments with MGoBlog

I think it is retarded as well. I said so at Alligator Army when we (Gators) were the 2nd overall pick. Not one mention of it since. Which is fantastic.

Haha. Might have to check it out sometime.

Today is a Good Day

Steady and true is nice…IMO building a team with solid players

Who are the remaining Offensive linemen targets?
Gaither, Clabo, Cole, Barnes, Blalock, Dahl
Xrossing fingers for Clabo and Dahl.
Crossing fingers for Blalock
So basically Falcon's entire O-line is up for sale?
Clabo resigned with the Falcons.
Tiki Barber released

Get ready

Jonathan Joseph

to Houston

I wonder if that means that Asomugha is out??
Good for Houston

I like their franchise

Texans reach agreement with former Bengals CB Johnathan Joseph on a five-year deal. Nnamdi to Jets looking more likely.
At this point + 2OL......

Would you guys be okay with the Redskins locking up Nnamdi with a big money deal?

Nnamdi is killer

But I just don’t think he fits our system of ball…

Dont need him
Nope

press corner that will command more money than he would earn in our system.

Absolutely not
Report: The Redskins are sending my left nut to Denver for Kyle Orton
I appreciate the sacrifice bro
No problem
It's okay you didn't need them anyways.
Eagles announce they have released former Pro Bowl FB Leonard Weaver: LaCanfora
still injured though right?

Was just talking about him today. He probably won’t play at all this year. Tough break.

He’s a guy I would undoubtedly bring into camp to challenge Sellers. Before the injury he was a great FB

assuming he’s healthy

Only time

I’ll feel bad for an Eagles player. He was great

Discussion Topic

If you were Nnamdi Asomugha, where would you choose to go: 49ers or Jets? Assume identical offers (so identical years/$$)

Hmmm.

Alex Smith or Sanchez???

Which guy will put me on the field longer?

I pick the Jets-

Smith, dude.

More 3 and outs, more INTs, more ineptitude.

I figured

We’d have our RT by now. Gettin nervous.

Stephon Heyer is still available
RT

Skins are gonna sign McClain from the Ravens as the new FB and convert Sellars to RT.

Alex Barron anyone?

He did win us a game last year!

hah

very true

Should we bring...

Derek Anderson into camp?

I'd rather bring in

Vinny Testaverde

He's always repho neby the phone by his couch.
fail

ready with*

damn.

Jake Delhomme is out there too.

So is Jeff George
If Vince Young signs with the Eagles,

who breaks down faster after their first start of the season? Vick physically, or Young mentally?

Kickers

The Skins should go after David Akers or Kris Brown.

Perhaps

Mark Mosely for the ages….

Might as well go with Ali Haji-Shank

honestly though

Max or Louis Zendajas…..lol!

Haha. Wasn’t there a third Zendajas brother?

I believe so

Yeah…that’s what I’m at as well. Not 100% sure.

the power of the net

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Zendejas

Ahhh. Well there we go. Tony. We could sign all three. That’d be fun.

Isn’t their nephew a kicker at Arizona or ASU?

Hah! *snort*

Off Blogging the Girls:

“The Skins were 6-10 last year, like us. They shed their fat and have made signings and trades that addressed their needs. I hate them, but you have to give them credit. They seem to at least have a plan that makes sense and are acting upon it.”

Bayou Cowboy – July 28, 2011

Falcons reached agreement with OT Tyson Clabo.
RB Brandon Jackson to the Browns
We just had a HH staff meeting so if you wanted a chance to take all of us out at once you missed your chance.

Kevin has a 9PM curfew. The one big thing that came out of it is I’m stepping down as editor and washingtonwin will be assuming the duties.

Thats a little depressing.

I don’t want to have to learn a new language.

haha don't worry there is a washingtonwin Rosetta Stone, its only $399

In all serious, we had a really good meeting and a lot of good stuff for everyone this season.

I thought I'd just watch the Matrix

and take a Comp Sci class.

I'm all for the washingtonwin types..

adds a little flavor to the blog

Y’all did it via Twitter didn’t you?

haha no, in person and over the phone

Kevin was naked on skype but now one else was on the other end

Well that figures. Always ruining the party.

Lemme guess facetime on the iphone/ipad.

How very hetrosexual

haha

since Ken was banned from Chat Roulette we didn’t have a choice

LET ME BE THE FURST TO SAY I ' M NOT SERPRIZED

i perdicted that this would happen ,and I do nt meen ta rub anyone ’ s noze in it , but I said that would happen way back from last year when wverbody sayz yer crazy man , but I said it the so who do you think was right hmmmmmm . ?

That punctuation is spot on.
It's really a shame

that this type of impersonation is not a marketable skill.

Man Lombardi is ripping VY
Brandon Jackson to the Browns, little thunder and lightning
Akers to the Niners
Schefter is quick
F***************************

Come on Bruce! GANO is horrible.

Really? over Akers, we'll be fine. Some good rooks out there and Kris Brown...

Shanny likes Gano and is going to give him a chance again.

agreed
Over the years....

Our Kickers have lost us so many games. I’m am freakin tired our looking away or turning the tv off when our kicker comes on the field.

I sat at FedEx and watched the Skins fumble away the winning field goal in the Tampa game last year. Though it wasn’t Gano’s fault I blamed it on him.

Dammit Kai Forbath is available! Lou Groza award winner in 2009. Bruce help me please!

That wasn't Gano's fault on the extra point

but the two field goals he missed were his fault.

JA

I said that. no disrespect.

No disrespect taken

i just wanted to make sure Gano got blamed for the other two really.

Gano

He sucks lets move on.

I’ve met his parents. They are good people. Coincidentally, I know what they got him for his birthday in 2009. Haha. They showed me it.

what the hell are you talking about?

David Akers. I’ve met his parents. 2009. They were on their way to Atlanta for the game. His birthday was the following Monday or something like that. I saw what they were giving him for his birthday present.

Wonder who

will play you in a movie about his life?

Just messin’

I always figured it would be someone like a Saving Private Ryan character Edward Burns. Not that I look or sound like him, but someone with that attitude.

Oh…you were just joking.

/sadwalkingawaybutfiguredyouwerejoking

Kyanz- very funny especially for a State Penner
Why thanks

Maybe because I’m from the DMV, and not Philly or Pittsburgh

I was gonna say

“Wow it’s like having Jason LaCanforna right here on Hogs Haven!” but I didn’t want it to get personal up in here!

That would have been waaaay below the belt
I met David Buelher's cousin

I also went to HS with Matt Prater. Denver’s kicker. Well, for a year and a half before he transferred to a rival HS right down the road a bit. He was a d-bag.

Who name drops kickers?

Apparently me. I can also name a few DB’s, a RB and a QB that I know.

Oh I met a draft bust once too
Durant Brooks

Damn you Cerrato!

Tonight

what are the odds we get anything else to happen tonight? I want Allen and co working around the clock

If you go to bed something will happen, that's the way it works
Only for a cocksman like myself tho..
o lineman

We need one more o lineman and sign Kerrigan!

hey what going on with grossman?

has anyone heard anything at all about him? what is taking so long?

When are we to report to Training Camp? And when will we get rooks signed?
All rookies have been signed except Kerrigan and Jenkins, training camp starts NOW

Maurice Hurt!

Game on the line. Down by two. Who wins the game?

Hope Solo or Graham Gano?

Get a helmet you sexy ******

I’ll take Abby Wambach. Because she is clutch and a Gator. But then I’d party with Alex Morgan.

Good party choice
Point is.

Anyone but Gano. I’d take the asian kid with the thick googles from the Little Giants movie over Gano.

Without question.

The sleeper of the bunch is Alex Krieger

Yeah, I like Carli Lloyd or Heather Mitts as my back-up. But Krieger…yeah. Good call.

She's damn sure on my radar

i also have a thing for Rampone, but just cause she’s a kickass sweeper.

Me too. She's a spunky one.

BTW, Apologize for the quaility of Alex’s picture. It was taken from my iPhone after I gave her a good rodgering. She begrudenly smiled for the photo.

No need for apologies

she’s got that look I’m used to which says “fine, I’ll let you hit it if you’ll stop asking.”

more like I guess 500 bucks is enough..
Yeah right

like I have $500…

Tattoo leading to a very existential place.
It's a shamrock.

Meaning aren’t you a lucky fucker for getting this close to the promise land.

Lucky fucker indeed

she’s definitely a 1.

8:30 A.M. Friday

Why so late in the week? Is it in correlation with something?

Yep

In correlation with the date of the 1st preseason game. Everyone gets the same distance between games

And they say life isn’t fair.

I read that you can't start training camp more than 15 days before your first preseason game

2 weeks of training camp. And we can sign what 90 players?

Championship!

It sucks for a lot of the rookies.

Thats a pretty short transition before their first NFL (preseason) game.

Yeah, that does seem short. Hopefully ours will be just fine.

RT @McClain_on_NFL: J Joseph gets 5 years, $48.75 million and $23.5 guaranteed, including $12.5 signing bonus, from Houston.

Carlos Rogers is salivating right now.

Unfortunately he’ll be working as a package handler at FedEx week one. He’ll eventually get fired for dropping too many boxes.

no one is going

to sign him to nice deal, so he might as well come back to the skins for a CHEAPER asking price and move on with his life…

Sheesh

what’s Nnamdi gonna rake in?

Nnamdi's asking price

Is like 15 million per year.

Add 20-25 million to the total and 15 to the guaranteed.

Or something ridiculous like that.

Wasn't Parks (HH GM exercise) estimating about $12 mill/yr for him?

If so, he got less than expected.

is it possible we have people who are going to signs deals but wont be realeased to the media until tomorrow night at 6?
Very possible

Most of these deals aren’t being reported publicly by agents.

so there is a possibility we wil sign jenkins but wont know till tomorrow
yes
Doubt it

Someone reported that the Bowen trade happened once/after our negotiations with Cullens fell through

We are probably hovering in the shadows

With our original deal, waiting to see what happens.

when will we find out jersey numbers? i dont think it was until the first preseason game that i found out trent williams number...i wanna know about atogwe
He said on his twitter that he will not even try to wear 21 out of respect.
I like him more each day
the Redskins Facebook page has a contest

Guess what his number will be and win an autographed jersey

cool.
I think it ends at mdnight

I entered with 4 diff numbers. We’ll see.

Screw getting an Atogwe jersey


I just want a t-shirt with this picture on it

now you know why Portis did an open filed belly flop...
*field
You don'
Bleh. You don't mess with this guy.
thats the face i make when i hear about the skins bringing ina 30+ player
Darnell Dockett

said his coaches told him he’s staying in AZ

Good. Keep that leg twisting SOAB away from DC.

Darnell Dockett is a beast

I don’t care if he stomped on a guy’s face, I’d die for him to be a Skin.

Last time we got a d-lineman who stomped on a guy it didn’t work out so well.

Hahahah! Exactly!

He stomped on a Cowboy so we gave him benefit of doubt.
Andre Gurode deserves it.
F Dockett..He's for the DMV and went to FSU and hated the Skins.
went to FSU

Exactly. He alone (by twisting Earnest Graham’s leg under a pile on more then one occasion and he sprained his knee ligaments) cost the Gators the 2001 National Championship.

Dockett is a loser.

Now I'm confused

i thought we were citing things we are NOT supposed to like about Dockett.

His Twitter stuff towards PETA was hilarious.

Can we please turn this into an FSU/UF fight?
Oh whatever

There was so much dirty crap coming from both sides that game, there’s no way to single anybody out. Your gators have typically been one of the dirtier teams around (though I’ll give them credit for being sneaky about it). Spurrier wasn’t known for discipline any more than Bobby was, and Urban would let them (very nearly literally) get away with murder, and just bench them for a quarter in a meaningless game against a Div 1-AA team.

:-)

just like Royster

from fairfax, and he was a cowboy fan so I hope he doesn’t make it on the roster!

UDFA Draughn is a little 'boys fan too
he's a bum as well....and besides he went to UNC

He is from Penn State and via the Big 10 so automatically he is slow.

/stereotyping

I APPROVE THIS MESSAGE...

Who wouldn’t want to play with Kevin Kolb? Oh wait…lots of people…

Chiefs released G Brian Waters

per LaCanfora

He's 34. His ankles will pop soon.
Jenkins signed

Rich_Tandler
The Redskins second-round pick is signed. RT @Jarvis99jenkins: the INK is on PAPER….imma redskin baby!!!!

Rich_Tandler

The Redskins second-round pick is signed. RT @Jarvis99jenkins: the INK is on PAPER….imma redskin baby!!!!

’Atta way Jenkins!

Apparently the Bears got a 3rd for Olsen
That's insane!
It's crazy on the Bears blog.

They want Angelos’ head.

I honestly wish

though the redskins could’ve gotten a piece of that action

Interesting

the player still he who must not be named?

did you see he just signed for $6 million a year

remember that when thinking about resigning Davis

Vince Young is indeed going to the #Eagles as Vick's backup, according to @ClarkJudgeCBS.
Just what we need in the NFC East

Another Speed QB to chase around. This is a mistake on our part. We could’ve had Vick for cheap and we let him revive the Eagles. Now VY is available and we let him go too. Not saying he’s Steve Young, but last time I checked Beck is our projected starter…

haha funniest thing I've heard all day
Que?

VY is MENTALLY UNSTABLE…so therefore why pursue that headache?

Hindsight is 20/20- back when Vick was an FA no one thought he’d return to this level.

And even he wouldn’t want to come here- he was looking for a stable team with great infrastructure and, at this point, we’re not that.

As far as VY, while mobility is a nice thing to have, sanity is to.

That's not true.

No team wanted to touch him. Eagles were the only team to give him a chance. All they do is lift weights in prison…

What the hell type of condition did Ceratto think he woudl be in? A hungry Michael Vick beats fadeaway ankle thrower McNaab any day.

He looked like shit his first year back actually
And

While the eagles are doing better than the skins…What have they done different with Vick?

Christ...

I didn’t want him, but I don’t want the Eagles to get him either. Just gotta hope he fights with someone over there

2013 5th round

If we use our Haynesworth pick to round to draft a D lineman and he turns out to be a perennial pro bowler does that mean Vinny Cerato is a genius and was just not allowed to see his plan through?

No, it just means that Bruce did a great job scouting!

DON'T U EVER

use Cerrato and genius in the same sentence!

That’s grounds for being banned.

cerrato

do you think he’d be willing to offer his prediction as to who we’ll take with that pick? Maybe he has his eyes on someone.

maybe

they will bring him back as a consultant just to handle that one pick.

never a genius, will always be a bum....

@MikeJonesWaPo

#Redskins agree to terms with first-rounder Ryan Kerrigan.

Excellent All Rookies Signed

All signed correct, good job Bruce!

Never any question, they have no power
beat me to it again.

anyway, great news!

Hilarious!

@espn_nfceast

Good one. RT @TheBluthBoys: @espn_nfceast Do u think Skins can trade their 6th rd pick in 2012 to the Pats for their 6th rd pick in 2000?

as long as the skins are making positive moves

I’m all for it

any new news

on the hands of stone (and not Ronnie Garvin; NWA fanboy) Carlos Rogers?

He was about to get a deal signed

until he dropped the pen.

ouch...

haahahhhhahahhaha

I would say one-liner of the month
Rick Maese

So all but one Redskin draft pick – 7-rdr Maurice Hurt – appears signed. Also, entirely possible Hurt is also done. We’ll find out in AM

Someone tell Hurt that holdouts are not a good plan for 7th rounders.
umm we released Philip Daniels
when did this happen?
early this morning.

With those arms, I wonder who told him. Cerrato get your ass over there.

Yea no shit
-Cerrato's face once he has to tell Daniels he's cut-

please don't kill me....
Saints sign Sproles
two years via FoxSports
I think it is for 4 years
not a great source but...

BREAKING NFL NEWSSource: NY JETS have come to an agreement in “principle” with Nnamdi Asomugha

Yikes...

It’s okay, they still won’t be able to cover the duo of Jabar Gaffney and Donte Stallworth…..

Adam Schefter

Even with J Joseph going to Houston, no decision tonight from Nnamdi Asomugha. Jets the favorite, but not done yet. Twists left….

Anyone agree

Any chance all the WR signings were to give Beck as many options to throw to, IOT see who works out the best for him?

In addition to teaching the young ones?

That's a badass defense

and we play them. Also Pats (AH) and Minn (D-Mac). Still no O-line?

Yeah, but

Our d ain’t that bad either. Front line – Cofield, Bryant, Bowen; LBs – Kerrigan, McIntosh/Riley, Fletcher, Orackpo; DBs Hall, Landry, Atogwe, Wilson. Our d is stout!

You forgot Jarvis Jenkins on the Line
McIntosh is not under contract
Mcintosh

That’s why I put him with Riley who is signed. But hope he comes back, if he wants too.

We signed Chester

But still not enough O line.

Adam Schefter

Big night in Tampa Bay. Bucs reach agreements with RG Davin Joseph (7 years), RT Jeremy Trueblood (2 years) and P Michael Koenen (6 years).

Joseph just signed a ridiculous 7 year $53 million deal How he gets over a million more per year than Yanda is outrageous
terrible contract for a very average guard..

Tampa Pay

haha yeah

I’m so glad we didn’t go down that road. It just shocks me since OL aren’t cashing in this year.

True

Apologies, TDB, ur right, it’s even better than what I laid out.

Albert Breer

Vince Young has reached a one-year deal with the Eagles. Will sign it tomorrow.

Eric Wright

Signing with Detroit via a combination of his and Gerald Alexander’s twitters. Don’t ask me why I follow Gerald Alexander

Adam Schefter

Reports of deal between Eagles and Vince Young are interesting. Young is still on waivers and can not talk to teams till he clears waivers.

Bust the Eagles for Tampering!

But I still dont want Young as a Redskin.

I guess the Skins could put in for him if they wanted to, I doubt it happens though.

Adam Schefter
Vince Young needs to appear on NFL’s waiver wire before Eagles can contact him. It’ll happen Friday about 4 pm ET. Eagles still likely.

I kinda wanted him to sign with the Skins

Adam Schefter
Seahawks reach agreement with former Cardinals DT Alan Branch on a two-year, $8 million deal that includes $4 million guaranteed.

damn that would have been a great signing
kelvin hayden

CB from the colts who we’re meeting with. does the signing of buchanon hinder us from signing this guy? he seems good.
