The Gruden/Smith Dinner
A whole bunch of topics we had to get to this show. Free Agency began. Alex Smith is now officially on the team, had a great press conference. Zach is back, as other players leave. Some other free agent signings as well.

Starbucks is bringing back Unicorn Frappuccinos — with a twist
–
The twist. Any male over 10 years old who orders this is put on a list and into a database, just figure we need to start keeping an eye on them.
I refuse to say “venti” so I order, “Your largest black coffee.” almost every morning as the coffee in my office is crap and puts me in a bad mood.
No sugar no cream
That’s the type of girl I want down with my team!
RIP Heavy D
Girls they- girls they love me…..
I almost never go to Starbucks, but when I do I always say either “medium” or “large”
Been listening to 90s chick rock all afternoon. Ks Choice, Mazzy Star, Skunk Anansi, Hooverphonic, Massive Attack, Garbage…I miss the 90s.
Oh, and F Scandrick.
I literally haven’t heard of one of those groups. Gonna fire up some Osmonds now….
You don’t know Garbage?
Other than SCamp and NPI?
You just revealed who terrifies you the most. Not that anyone didn’t know anyway…
Good job.
whaa
It’s at my feet.

I tried to hit on Shirley Manson at the 9:30 club and failed epically.
I’m assuming this was in the 90’s? She was smokin back in her prime.
Yeah, it was around 96-97. I was in the balcony right by the dressing rooms and she came out to watch the opening act. I mustered up all the swag that my 20 year old self could emit and ‘sup Shirley’. She replied with ‘Fuck off’
You’re missing out
Who’s buying a Unicorn Frappuccinos ^^^ this guy ^^^^
Got my Starbucks gold card ready
90’s music to me means
Hootie and The Blowfish, Collective Soul, Creed, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Green Day, Weezer, The Offspring, Matchbox Twenty, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Soul Asylum, R.E.M., Soundgarden, Counting Crows, Goo Goo Dolls, Third Eye Blind, The Smashing Pumpkins, 4 Non Blondes, Foo Fighters, Sublime, Blind Melon, Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam

Sneaker pimps just came up.
My plan at CB to start would be:
1. Norman
2/Nickle. Dunbar
3. Moreau
4. Scandric
5. Holsey
I would not be surprised if there is little to no g’money in Scandrick’s deal
I’m thinking so. Dude’s got a problematic history of missing games.
Scandrick’s PFF grade: No. 113 out of 121. But he was much better the previous 4 years. Was he hurt?
14- missed 4 games for MDMA.
ACL/MCL in 15.
Hurt off and on last 2 years after that.
33 games in last 2 seasons
torn ACL/MCL one year and broken back the other year
Maybe he plays better when he’s hurt.
Tryna replace Bree’s PI stats.
Don’t freak out over 2 year $10M numbers
I would guess a lot of that is active game day bonus, roster bonus, etc.
probably have a $2/$3M cap hit this year
So was the information that he was cheaper than DRC and that they are trying to work out a deal with Hankins “inside information?”
No inside information, just understand what they are doing better now
It’s scraping the crud on the bottom of the barrel.
I hope they got him to buy his own round trip airfare.

There was that one time Norv Turner made the playoffs for a minute.
Calvin Hill!
5 mil per for Scandrick? Bleh…
That’s very likely not his cap hit.
What’s the real, guaranteed money? Sounds like a 1 year deal to me.
Probably. Still…I’m tired of Cowboys rejects
I don’t quite understand signing Scandrick, but okay.
less money than DRC
trying to work out deal with Hankins
Really?
slot corner?
Can’t we pull a “Ryan Grant” if we can get DRC?
No, but they might want to consider sending team security to make sure he has an injury.
Paging….Niles Paul?…..Paging, Niles Paul.
At least you’re at quite.
I’m no where near understanding it. Even if it’s a veteran minimum with $8.9m in incentives. I flat don’t get it.
…will patiently wait for the Hankins signing to get this Scandrick stench out.
Worse than anything I’ve ever smelled.

This Scandrick deal had better have 1mill is guaranteed signing bonus, and a 9mill non-guaranteed salary in year 2.
At around 4:11 p.m., Sunday, Beverley Kleimeyer called the DeLand Police Department to report that her son, Robert J. Barlock, had shoved her in the home that they share at 529 Leaf Circle, according to a police affidavit.
The 80-year-old mother explained that she gave Barlock a sample of the baked ham she was making when he became so upset with the taste that the 52-year-old son allegedly shoved her, according to the affidavit, which added that she slapped him to make him stop.
Barlock allegedly stopped pushing his mother and told her he would destroy the furniture, where he went into the living room and flipped over a couch and a table, explained the affidavit. Police noted that there were no visible injuries to Kleimeyer.
Kleimeyer told police that Barlock was drinking alcohol and became aggressive and that it has becoming an ongoing issue, the affidavit stated.
Police did notice that a “disturbance” did take place in the living room and things were damaged. Barlock denied that he pushed his mother or that anything happened in the house, according to the report.
==============================================================
That wasn’t honey, that was your cough syrup you poured over the ham Mom!
Send that ham to the lab. Have it tested for arsenic.
I’m sure he’ll ramp up his level of play in the DMV…. Anyone got his stats from last year? I didn’t think he was all that bad.
He was injured last year and sucked. The reason he forced his way out of Dallas is b/c he’d lost his starting spot and wasn’t going to get it back
Destined for mediocrity

It’s 2:24. WHY HAVEN’T WE SIGNED HANKINS YET?
It’s 1:25. Why the hell did we sign Scandrick???
$10 max deal over two years. Probably a lot of incentives.
Scandrick is horrible. He offers nothing.
What in the what man.
Leverage on DRC I’m sure.
If we signed OS, how is that “leverage”?
I didn’t know we signed that bitch.
No Hankie Pankie…….:(
not necessarily
Why you say that?
You guys just said we had 10 million in cap space. He just ate up probably half??
That’s a max value 2 year deal figure, meaning divide by 2 and subtract hard to reach incentives.

Spotrac has 16.5 w/o Brown’s deal (rule of 51 and rook est included)
Spotrac’s chart is wrong. The only way to get it accurately is to combine a bunch of sources.
Notice that Spotrac still has Kenny Hillard listed, for example; he was cut. All of the sources has differences.
he doesn’t count under the rule of 51 anyway
Hilliard isn’t the only one; he was just an example. Mine’s more accurate.
so guesstimate that the Skins have about 8 mil in cap space left
No, I guestimate about $10M without them having to make moves and still have the rookies paid for.
It’s 2:04. WHY HAVEN’T WE SIGNED HANKINS YET?

Hankins and a 3rd round for Cravens = this offseason huge win for us
I would offer Galette a incentive laden deal like Brown’s
keep salary down and put more in roster, game day active, workout bonus $$
INT, FF, sack incentive bonus, etc.
$1000 for not posting on twitter for a week.
$10K for him to switch to suspenders.
You can still whip butt at the beach with suspenders. Takes a bit more work though. I imagine.
If SCravens trashes this team on the way out the door
I’m not gonna get over that
We’v done nothing absolutely nothing wrong with him
Where’s that coming? Is he saying stuff?
Anticipating
I think we end up shipping him for a 2018 3rd before the draft.
I think the days of not letting guys leave the building are over. Players wanna see what they can get. Hankins has to be drawing interest from other teams.
Right, like a car dealership.
“I’ll walk outta here RIGHT NOW!”
Maybe they will get a call before they leave the lot asking, “What’s it gonna take to put you in burgundy & gold today?” and get a bit more.
Neither DJax nor Josh Norman were allowed to leave without signing.
We wstill do it, but only on select occassions.
The agents are working the phone lines…they know before leaving the table what the next team’s max offer is.

I’m more upset that we lost the 3rd round pick…Fuller is VERY GOOD, but not irreplaceable. The GOOD news is that we didn’t have to give up a 1st or 2nd, now, or in the future.
————–
I couldn’t disagree more, Rick. I think Fuller was the equivalent of a high 1st round draft pick with the benefit of two full years of experience. He was one of the best CBs in the league last year. Now, maybe that was a fluke, but I don’t have any reason to think it was.
Moreau is a better player.

Schaffer doesn’t work for Doug, and neither does Jay. I think Doug’s role is limited to running the pro and college scouting rooms. So, I guess I agree with Chris.
Yeah NPI…I could definitely see the Redskins with 9-10 picks next year.
Cousins, Murphy, Long, Bree (when he signs somewhere) and maybe a couple others. We could have 12 picks in next year’s draft. Of course the majority of these comp picks will be in the 5th, 6th and 7th rounds with Kirk scoring us a 3rd.
Grant.
I stole his lunch money.
-Crabtree
You stole Grant’s Benjamins after he arrived from Washington in a Lincoln?
Because it’s rules are a secret when it comes to how we get the comp picks, it could be anything. Wait and watch how they screw us over.
I’m more upset that we lost the 3rd round pick…Fuller is VERY GOOD, but not irreplaceable. The GOOD news is that we didn’t have to give up a 1st or 2nd, now, or in the future.
We might have 5 comp picks in the 2019 draft.
Yup
I don’t think they’re going to get 5 comp picks.
They lost Cousins, Grant (presumably), Breeland (presumably), Long, Murphy.
They Signed Paul Richardson. If they don’t sign anyone else, that leaves a max of 4, because Richardson cancels out one of either Long or Murphy. So I think 4 is the max, the Cousins deal being a 3rd rounder.
That’s why I said ‘might’ but in any event, we are getting multiple comp picks where in the past we either missed out or got screwed by the lig.
Yes, but if they sign somebody else to a multi-year deal, another one will either be reduced or go away entirely.
Gotcha.
Tough trade. Worth it. Move on.

We have two VERY GOOD coaches on defense….Torian Gray and Jim Tomsula.
Yes. One can argue that we need to let them coach up young talent, rather than spend big on the position where they are experts.
Correct…let’s see what they can do with Holsey and Moreau.
Get Hankins on the roster; get that front-7 cooking; and I’m not even concerned about what’s happening in the secondary.
I hope RB coach gets the starter and rotations right. F’s just aint working there coach.
Watch Alex Smith play. Watch Kirk Cousins play. Both are very good. One plays football, the other “thinks”. That’s the intangible.
One has a ton of playoff experience and is known for making off schedule plays and not turning the ball over, the other is “still learning the game”
As I mentioned below. I see Smith giving us at least the same production from the QB position that Kirk did in this system. Then we paid a price – Fuller and a 3rd rounder – for the flexibility to sign other players to build the team (which we would not have had if we were guaranteeing Kirk Cousins 28mill/year or more). I’m fine with the approach we took…

Be careful. You’re coming extremely close to violating my intellectual property rights in the phrase “I like that.”
-Kirk
Close dont count Kirk. You should know that. You Vike that?
Hey, Frigg you! I throw a perfect interception at the most inopportune time.
Long live Viking ‘luck’….
Very few people will have a problem with the Smith deal because…
A) It’s a manageable yearly cap number.
B) Smith has actually made the playoffs multiple times (but only won twice)
C) He’s the unquestioned leader of the offense.
D) He WANTS to be here.
E) He won’t have a “process”.
Most importantly…he’s not a pussy.
We had a bunch of people argue with us about Kirk’s “process” and how great it was after he started talking about it.
He’s not here to sell t-shirts or make cute slogans
Merry Kirkmas!!
Not entirely true. Most like Smith for those reasons and he’s just better value than Cousins. Worse case you get the same guy but for less. However, a 3rd, Fuller and $71M guaranteed he better be MUCH more than Cousins. I think he can but it was a steep price
It’s not like Cousins went cheap. 28mill/year every penny guaranteed, and he gave the Vikings a “discount”. If we overpaid for Smith, the Vikes definitely also overpaid for Cousins.
Then one would assume you stay with the devil you know and keep draft picks and player.
I’m hoping they saw something in Smith (yes not a pussy) and other stuff that convinced them it was worth it vs awaiting FA
The devil we knew didn’t want to stay with us. Why do people keep acting like the Skins actually had a shot to re-sign Kirk after the 2016 season came and went? Even his agent acknowledges that they were always far apart, not merely on numbers, but on the whole contract approach. We were never really in the running for Kirk, contrary to his public statements otherwise.
I’m playing devils advocate here. If Vikings offered what they offered and we offered the same what’s to say he would not have returned? A fully guaranteed contract and stability is pretty convincing all else being equal.
Point being, we gave up ALOT for Alex freakin Smith. Until now i always though he was blah. He’s did pretty good on a superior team. I hope it works.
Well I’m glad we didn’t offer that. Otherwise we likely wouldn’t be talking about having signed Richardson, Brown or potentially landing Hankins. Would have limited our efforts to build the rest of the team.
You could say that the 3rd rounder and Fuller was the price of maintaining the same QB production as we had with Kirk, while granting us the freedom of signing more players. I’m fine with that approach.
This^^^
Bruce saving face in depths of night.
Not to be Debbie Downer, but worst case is he’s worse than Cuz but for less. Or, he gets hurt but you still have to pay him all that guaranteed money.
He dont care abour the boogeyman either.
The only question for me is whether Smith’s productivity will drop off with age. No concerns about him leading the team, running the offense or blending with Gruden.
Nah…can’t afford to spend any big money for a LG. I’d rather they get one in the draft. You’ve still got Kuandijo for depth, but they can’t tie any money up at that position with Scherff coming up on a deal.
Don’t think the Skins need to spend big money to find a serviceable starter out of what’s out there.
We will draft someone. Callahan has to protect our QB. If Lauvao somehow is brought back I am going to start changing how I think about Callahan.
Yes.
Draft a versatile G/C. He is there
Pouncey…I wish
Ragnow type or Long type… but better at downfield blocking vs just ‘zone’ bs
And pass pro bs
Like I been saying for 3 years…but the Oline was ‘great’ they said.. Smh
They shouldn’t spend big money, no, but going into the draft counting on finding a starter isn’t wise either. I think they do need to sign some sort of stopgap.
Signing Hankins would give the Skins options going into the draft. We could take a Denzel Ward or Derwin James at 13 instead of DLineman, or we could double down. Would be nice to have that flexibility and feel like we can cover all of our bases.

Top work.
That rusty pitchfork is no match for the golden shovel.
They need to get Junior back too.
He’s a head case. The wrong sort of head case.
Just got a little sand in his shorts.
If the Redskins get Hankins, they get an “A” from me for free agency. They will have gotten 2 difference makers, one in Paul Richardson, the other in Hankins…they retain Zach Brown also.
They can fill in the rest of the holes at Target.
The fact that the team doesn’t have a starting left guard, still, concerns me.
Lauvao Is still available
I think if the Skins slow-play the market, there are a few veteran LG-types that they could sign on a decent 1-year “prove it” deal. And draft another one in the mean time.
I’m writing something for tomorrow that lists a few of those guys.
Jack Mewhort, Fluker, Cooper, Greg Robinson, Joekel – none of these guys are going to the Pro Bowl and they all come with a couple footnotes, but they are of decent playing age with a couple more shots to prove it for the right price.
…and in a real pinch, don’t look now, but LeRib is out there…and he’s hungry!
Weirdly, Mrs. LeRibius (i.e., his mom) is sort of a friend of the show.
Considering the average lifespan of an NFL career is 3 years, LeRib has done well for himself.
Joekel is terribad
Hankins is the piece that I think will make the front 7 click. With Allen, Hankins, Ionnadis/Lanier (and whoever else rotating in); then P.Smith/Kerrigan coming off the edges and ZBrown patrolling sideline to sideline – I actually don’t care what we do with the secondary at that point. If that front-7 can get locked and loaded, will be wreaking havoc in the backfield and making life easier for whatever DBs are back there.
So has Benny Logan come and gone at this point – what was the deal there? Awkward reception now that Hankins is available – how do you think the Skins walked it back?
Don’t think he ever came to visit.
Really? Thought that was lined up, or maybe just chatter about Skins being interested…
Yeah it was chatter, nothing official.
I think it was always just fan chatter.
If Hankins doesn’t sign, he’s really the last dude worth signing at DL.
Fail him during the physical, that’s how Bmore walked back Grant.

most early investment schemes are pyramid schemes. big investors / angel investors get sweet stock deals while they feed off the gullible public investor and then cash out; while the public investor may make 300-500% (as example) on a stock like Facebook, the early folks make orders of magnitude more; that example isn’t the common one, more common is where the public investor makes bupkiss, or loses big time. all kinds of tech stocks in the pink sheets where this happens
Eventually Cryptocurrencies will be outlawed. Maybe not this year. But in the next decade or so probably.
Governments are going to eventually plan on going all electronic, doing away with paper and coinage, long term it just makes economic sense to go that way. Once that happens Cryptocurrencies will be the only way for the black market to operate so that will incentives them to outlaw crypto.
governments will adopt crytocurrency and the blockchain tech for their currency. if anything it would be the private crytocurrency that would be outlawed, but my guess it won’t be outlawed, but regulated, and because blockchain can reveal the path, that would effectively make one of the advantages of it for legit private use go bye bye
Governments may adopt some of that sure. But I think the end goals will be; stone wall the black market, tax and control, make sure it can’t be used to pay people under the table.

Maybe Bruce will over compensate for McClain fail by signing Hankins
That’s not overcompensating
Sure it is. We just want a line, he swung twice in this scenario.
When you fuck up admit and move on happens to all NFL FO’s.
You’re preaching to the choir, tell your boss that!
Bruce is that kind of guy too. He cares for and protects his reputation like a politician. I could see him thinking he can make up for a bunch of fuck-ups in one signing with Hankins.
Well Hankins is better than any of the guys they signed last year.
His reputation is shit… at least with fans
Not in his mind.
LEGEND!
McClain is a 4.6mil cap hit if he is on the roster, if you make him a June 1st cut his 7mil dead cap space can be split over 2 season making his hit 3.5 this year and 3.5 next year. Making it just as cheap to cut him this year as next year.
Or you can keep him this year and pay him to be terrible… What’s the problem?
Yeah no thanks I would rather pay a younger guy who can learn.
That’s even more dumb, in my opinion.
No whats dumb is keeping a guy on the bench who sucks to save 1mil. If you cut him next year he is a 2.5mil dead cap hit add that to the 4.6 hit this year and the difference is minimal.
That’s called a loss. Adding dead money to next year’s cap to cut a guy who might not be playing well, but isn’t a distraction, isn’t smart.
Guys….McClain is a loss no matter what. It’s just a matter of loss allocation. He’s not the guy to cut for cap purposes.
…and he’s the worst of the bunch unfortunately
I thought McGee was the worst…
Honestly, though, it’s like choosing which one of your kids you can’t stand the most
But they are adopted, so it’s easier.
Not adopted, just some other dudes
That’s easy… D_C
He is a guy to cut because he sucks and time to move on even if you have to bite the cap hit.
When you make a mistake on a guy fix it and move on.
That’s poor roster management.
It was poor roster management bringing him in. Gotta cut bait.
Yes, he hasn’t performed. But I don’t want them to hurt their salary cap just to get rid of him. Just bench him for the year.
He still cost salary cap space if he is on the team if you make him a june first cut you split the cost over two years. Keeping him on the bench is dumb.
Unnecessarily splitting the loss over multiple years is even more dumb, to me.
No it’s smart keeping a guy who isn;t going to help you is dumb.
He is a lot less devastating to the cap if you wait a year to cut him.
Yes…he’s a savings if you wait to cut him next year.
No keeping a guy that sucks just because of his cap hit is poor roster management.
Keeping a player because it would hurt financially to let him go is such bullshit.
Take your medicine and make room for a player who will contribute.
Cut the McShit twins together.
Agreed
They like McGee better than McClain.
Stop looking on paper and start looking at the effect someone stealing money has in the locker room.
It was a bad signing. Someone blew it. Don’t compound the mistake by having him around guys that bust their butts to get and stay on the field.
“….Oh, that stock keeps dropping but I don’t want to sell now because of the loss I’ll take…..
I’M GOIN’ DOWN WITH THE SHIP!!!!!”
That’s Steve’s logic apparently.
No. We know the floor of the stock in this case. We know the worst that can happen. It isn’t a risk in the same way a stock is a risk.
A loss is a loss.
You just said to bench him for the year.
Not sure how keeping some fatass on the roster taking the spot of even a special teams player makes any sense whatsoever.
I’d rather bench him now than put dead cap money on next year’s salary cap.
How on earth to you or I know how he’s perceived in the locker room? None of us are there and I’ve never read anything about McClaim being a distraction, a bad teammate, or unliked. He isn’t performing well; he’s not the first.

From the looks of that dude….he ain’t quick doing anything lol.
Hankins has a history of signing late.
Also, I am in agreement with Cooley when he says the team needs to find out why a talented player like Hankins was let go 1 season after signing a 3-year deal. Switching from a 4-3 to a 3-4 doesn’t usually mean you cut your best D-lineman.
I would like more on that.
his 3 year deal was pretty fake, if I recall
#FAKE DEALS!
no dead cap year 2
http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/indianapolis-colts/johnathan-hankins-12330/
So cut your best D-lineman because “no dead cap”?
Still makes zero sense. I hope the dude wasn’t complaining about the scheme switch a’la Haney.
I agree with your premise, I’m just saying it was prob EASIER for them to do it. Why? He’s kind of a big DT, not the biggest, but maybe they want guys who are 305 who can move…?
They save $8.5M by cutting him. The just landed a boat load of draft picks in their trade with the Jets. I’m sure they’ll replace Hankins with a cheaper rookie.
They said they are moving to smaller faster d-line guys, it wasn’t because of his play because he was by far their best d-lineman last year.
by fart their best d-lineman last year.

I realize both Spotrac and Overthecap are second-hand sources, but neither of them has the contract yet FWIW
a signing bonus is paid now but spread through out the whole deal in terms of cap hit.
been saying that for weeks.
but if it is, then his cap hit is like almost 24 mil in 2018; or 23 if they’re allowed to spread it over 5 years (I think they’re only allowed to spread it over 4); not the 18.4 being reported by Tom

No need to draft that guy this year.
right
Especially since the Redskins will likely end up with as many as 5 comp picks in next year’s draft.
Stand pat. No QB’s taken in this year’s draft. We are missing a 3rd round pick anyway so we need every pick we have.
I’ve said it 100 times, think they need to plan on letting Colt walk next year, draft someone and save some cash
13 DERWIN JAMESDefensive Back, Florida State
Before I explain this pick, let me give a quick reminder.
Derwin James is not a safety. He is a defensive back.
James doesn’t just play safety. He plays all over the field, including slot cornerback. For the Washington Redskins, Derwin James would provide a valuable chess piece in the secondary. He has the athletic ability to play anywhere, and thus, he has priceless versatility that teams will covet in the early first round of the NFL Draft.
Here, a quarterback run sends both James and Minkah Fitzpatrick to the No. 13 pick in the NFL Draft. Both players are very good, but with this pick, the Washington Redskins opt to go with the more athletic player, and from a certain perspective, the greater upside.
Both James and Fitzpatrick are leaders in the locker room. Both players bring winning mentalities, and both will only be benefits to the culture they join. Thus, if a team is forced to choose between them, it could come down to a small, albeit noticeable difference. The Washington Redskins will value James’ athleticism and length here, and by acquiring James, they automatically improve the quality of their secondary.
Can’t argue really. Especially if they sign 25 year old Hankins…at NT. We could use the pick to bolster the secondary.
I would love to have Derwin James or Minkah Fitzpatrick

So, here it is from Tom. His 2018 cap hit is $1.4 million higher than the original contract from KC.
That good I was hoping it would stay at 17 but 18.4 is no big deal.
Bargain. Love this move more and more each day. By the time FA and the draft passes and so many teams have scrambled, panicked and overpaid for players……this move to bring in ASmith is going to turn out to be a very good one.
indeed. and more to spend on players around him. i like the acquisition.
Bingo.
You think we’d be able to re-sign Zach Brown? Be in the mix to re-sign Galette? Be in position to nab Hankins or DRC (I think both deals get done)? Richardson?
Newp.
Completely manageable numbers.
Sure. But crazy AF.
Why so crazy?
Big numbers is why.
Also…as his production goes down with age, he’s costing a lot more toward the cap.
think about this,
first, the 5th year is totally fake unless he’s putting the Skins in NFCC games, he prob never plays under it, and if he does, they prob have a draft pick riding the bench for a few years
he’s younger than A Rodgers
and the 4th year cap number is the QB number they had in 2017… but in 2021.
people are talking about josh norman like he’s suddenly become garbage. i’d guess reports of his demise have been exaggerated. he was one of my favorite players in 2016. played through broken ribs last season. he’ll be back too his old self, imo.
agree.
People talk about him like he performs at a sub $10m per year level and not the $16.9m+ he’ll be counting against the cap.

This is interesting. His Chiefs deal had him making $17 million this year. But the difference between $40 million and the $27 million signing bonus is only $13 million. Perhaps there was some restructuring to create more 2018 cap room. We will see.

The video, shot through the windshield of a car driving west on Interstate 695 through downtown Washington, shows snowy skies while White narrates.
“Man, it just started snowing out of nowhere this morning, man. Y’all better pay attention to this climate control, man, this climate manipulation,” he says. “And D.C. keep talking about, ‘We a resilient city.’ And that’s a model based off the Rothschilds controlling the climate to create natural disasters they can pay for to own the cities, man.

Oof……. it’s damn sure Monday morning.
Somebody’s trying to get re-elected
by donning a tin foil hat? you think his constituents believe jews are manipulating weather? (he did issue a perfunctory apology later.)
You’re obviously working with them.
Got to be some kind of fool to publicly drop the Rothchilds name.
There’s no hiding from trillionaires.
You can’t even do a web search of the Rothchilds and not end up disappeared.
Alex, any truth to this?
Alex is in on it. Josh Rosen too.
Ha!
Wait… He didn’t say Jews, he says Rothschilds. Are we saying all Jews are Rothschilds? That’s kinda racist.
Isn’t that a candy?
that’s just what they want you to think. they have micro-chips in them so after you eat one, they can track your movements.
It’s Trump’s fault
well… the rothschilds are running the machines out of the back room of a pizza parlor…. things that make you go, “hhhmmmm.”
There’s a whole crazy theory about Trump and the Rothschilds that I’ve heard, how part of why he ran for president is he wants his family to be on even footing with families like the Rothschilds or the House of Saudi.
Why is it everyone else’s team rebuild is moving along faster than ours?
Lack of draft picks from that stupid trade
Failure of high draft picks SCravens, MJones
Scherff.
– D_C
Because when you mortgage future draft picks on a QB who fails, you set your team development back multiple years. The fact the team could not work a LTD for Kurt only exacerbated that.
I think we are building pretty well now that the QB position is taken care of for at least 3 seasons.
Like who’s? Were not rebuilding
Rams, Eagles, Vikings have all surpassed us in a shorter amount of time. Haven’t we been in a constant rebuild for the past 25 years?
Jags
To me Hankins is a must
He’s everything we don’t have currently
Total run game wrecker
We could have won a game or two in this year’s tournament; DAMMIT!

Who woulda thought UMBC and Radford U the 2 best tourney teams from Maryland /Virginia this year? Not many. Lol
Kirk Cousins….’ did a lot of research Minnesota…wanted to make sure the boogeyman wasnt hiding around a corner…everything checked out ‘…Lol
McCartney on Cousins…’ tough decision Vikings or Jets’…uhhh yea cause where would your other client McCown get 10 mil a year? Answer : Nowhere.
I have 9 of the 16 Final 4 teams. Unlike last year my Natl Champ pick will not happen. Bummer.
Hopefully the ‘consensus’ in the FO rolls w Hankins and Galette…and zeroes in on the draft w BPAs and ‘need’…like the 3rd rd pick the ‘consensus’ gave up….
Rams sign Suh…their FA offseason rivals the Eagles last year. Pretty good.
Hopefully the ‘consensus’ in the FO will ride w a healthy Galette over the dinged up McPhee as well….
Sure hope Bruce doesnt sign another Cowboy. Hopefully the ‘consensus ‘ in FO agrees as well…they just dont work out in Washington
You can forget about tier 1 guards coming cheap anymore in FA. That era is over.
What are the negatives for the player to having their contract restructured? They’re still making the same amount as the original contract correct?
Nothing they just get a big lump sum of money.
The problem is teams that do this eventually have a player who can’t play anymore with a huge dead cap hit.
Ok thanks for the info
So who are the obvious choices to restructure their contract?
Kerrigan, Norman as it pains me to say.
Kerrigan, Williams, Norman are the ones I can think of.
Everyone

Hankins has played 68% and 63% of defensive snaps over the last two years in top 10 rushing defenses, that’s good enough for me.
According to sportrac salary cap tracker we got 15 million left. Is this accurate?
http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cap/
Probably close.
So without some restructured deals of some higher priced guys on the squad, we realistically probably only sign one more guy? Either Hankins, Galette, Scandrick, McPhee or DRC.
Need some for rookies
That’s included
So just heard Hankins should be in town today or tomorrow.
What happened to Sunday? Who screwed that report up?
Not sure I don;t think anyone actually knows more guessing.
Rap a shit
Wonder why the Colts dropped him after only 1 year?
Moving to a 4-3 def
Because they are switching to a 4-3 and he doesn’t fit a 4-3 defense. He was by far their best d-linemen last year.
Yeah I mean we had no Clue Hankins would be available going into FA.
Richardson is the next PG?
Wow. He’s gonna need to make some leaps in his development to get there in the next couple of years.
I think his game is more like DJax then Pierre.
Gruden is a burger guy.
Maybe thin crust pizza too.
Mashed potatoes, Sweet potatoes, corn, turkey, little gravy, some bread, green beans…mix it all together…it’s the best.
–Gruden
That reads like thankgiving more than a daily diet.
He said this during the Thanksgiving game this year…you don’t remember? It was great.
Happy Monday
To you as well sir.
heyo
Happah happah.

Steve….you’re not allowed to do voice impressions.
A 4th bomb went off in Austin last night, injuring 2 people. This one triggered by a trip wire apparently. Some sicko is trying to send a message.
That’s messed up
Hankins, Scandrick, McPhee? Gallette made some cryptic tweets over the weekend. I think he’s bitter about Murphy getting a deal before he did.
No he made some stupid tweets over the weekend.
Sounds like Breeland might not be ready for off season work.
Good morning.
Poured coffee in my bowl of cereal. Good thing is its cinnamon honey bunches of oats, so the flavor profile works.
And i made breakfast more efficient!
Did the bunches hold up?
