The Redskins might or might not use the franchise tag. They might or might not slap it on tight end Fred Davis. Or they might or might not use it on safety LaRon Landry.

Fletcher and Carriker
I hope they are both back in the B &G.

Fletcher definitely
Hopefully Carriker isn’t asking for too much money or i’d let him walk.
PJ_21 - February 22, 2012
Don't you think he'll be looking for starter money?
That’s 5-6 mil per year, which is way too much for an average player.
Diesel44 - February 22, 2012
and for that price id let him walk
Hopefully they can get him for less as I can’t see many teams making a big push for him.
If he expects similar money to Bowen then it would make a lot more sense to pay the extra couple mil a year to someone like Campbell who is a far better player.

FA OGs is interesting
There’s a guy ranked right below Carl Nicks (who’s been the center of attention in many posts on Hogs Haven) named Chad Rinehart….where have I heard that name before? I don’t know what kind of blocking scheme they run in Buffalo so I’m going to console myself with the idea that it’s a better scheme for Rhino that our ZBS.
The Redskins made the bottom of the list with Maurice Hurt come in at 7th from the bottom.
On the tackles list Jammal Brown was 64th out of 75 and Sean Locklear wasn’t much better (57 out of 75).
We need to draft (or sign a FA) at least 1 OT and 1 OG this year.

I am shocked that RG3 is running the 40 at the combine.
Seems like a mistake to me.
