Roster moves: Scherff, Bergstrom
April 16, 2018
by Steve Thomas
The Redskins announced today that the team has exercised its fifth-year option on 2-time Pro-Bowl Brandon Scherff for the 2019 season. Scherff, drafted in the first round of the 2015 NFL draft, has played 46 games for Washington, and is the team’s first interior lineman to earn consecutive Pro Bowl selections since Hall of Famer Russ Grimm between 1983 – 1986. Scherff is also the first Redskins offensive lineman to earn multiple Pro Bowl selections in the first three seasons of a career since tackle Chris Samuels. Playing under the option in 2019, Scherff will earn a fully guaranteed $12.525M, and gives the parties another year to attempt to negotiate a long-term deal before he is eligible for free agency.
The Redskins also announced that they have re-signed tackle Tony Bergstrom. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Bergstrom (6’5″, 315), who is 31 years old and was drafted by the Oakland Raiders in the 3rd round of the 2012 draft, came to the Redskins in October, 2017, and played in 9 games, including 3 starts.
Regarding McDowell, his family has basically told the Seahawks NOT to share any information about his injuries and apparently they hope he gets picked up by another team who will pass him physically to play

More GOP lawmakers are getting behind ending the Prohibition on Marijuana. Good job. Way to pull your heads out of your asses.
Amen!
1000% tax.
Violators get the wheel.
1000%, dude lay off the ‘white girl’
Do it for alcohol as well.
that’s not how negotiating works
That sort of tyrannical taxation tends to lead to people being separated from their head.
that’s what the wheel is for, though typically that’s separation from limbs
I would guess it would end up being Federally the equivalent of 5-10 cents a joint
Of all the people that should be naturally supportive of getting government out of people’s lives…
I know… you’d think they would have figured this out years ago… but the tobacco, police, and prison lobby…
Amen!
you must misunderstand what legalization is going to mean… the Bureaucracy is JUST getting WARMED up
*rubs hands together*
We’re going to need USDA to provide regulations, and possibly regulations that QA/QC weed vs hemp assurance
We’re going to need FDA to deal with various drug and and approved medicinal uses; and definitely someone is going to have to regulate edibles differently than inhalation, since ingestion has significantly different drug effects on the body. We’re going to need guidance or regulation on labeling.
And we’re going to need more illegal immigrants to do a lot of work initially because of the global demand. Then, once it is mechanized, we’ll need ICE to take care of that issue.
And that’s just the beginning.
Since weed magically cures Cancer, Big Cancer is going to want their cut.
And we need Congress to provide a maze of taxes and rules and laws to work it all out so Big Law can make more money.
How about we try and go just one day without you guys spouting off your political agendas…can we do that?
good luck
Comey’s boss.

Senator Rand Paul is speaking the truth. Strzok and Page should be removed from their positions. They tried to bring down a sitting US President.
is that a band?
Live at the 9:30 Club: Strzok and Page, bringing their mix of baroque orchestra and rhythm guitars!
Here we go…
stirring the pot
That’s it. Automatic 1-week suspension from Breitbart, Infowars and Fox News for you.
lol
Before he was president. So.
Using the FBI like the KGB to target political opponents… nothing wrong with that at all.

ty for clarifying, still they should at least have their clearances revoked.
They didn’t break any laws that I’m aware of. Or put the nation in any risk. Consider their record prior this event and a reprimand on the record will suffice.
Just a couple knuckleheads banging each other that ended up talking too much in texts.
agree to disagree
He’s good at keeping an eye on foreign states attempting espionage against the US. Specifically Russia and China. It’s what got him where he is today.
You’d toss out someone with that expertise just because of politics?
Regarding McDowell folks realize that he was seriously injured in an atv accident and his failure has nothing to do with football
The Greg I know would rail about how stupid he was too jeopardize his career by riding an ATV and lobby to have him castrated so he would be incapable of passing on his moron Gene.
The details of the injuries haven’t ever been made public
He’s ruined his life on his own accord
^ this
Dude sucks. Got manhandled.
That ATV certainly man handled him
Yep.
Haaaaaankiiiinnnnnnssss… Come out to plaaaayyy!

A 71-year-old white woman has been charged with battery after she and her son argued with two black female service members over a parking spot outside a restaurant.
and they have also been banned from Cheddar’s too
Was she loitering?
No black people should not take her white person parking spot
them people are getting uppity again
I swear we’re going back to 1962
fighting with the Russkies and oppressing the blacks
This is why I take the furthest spot available. So some old crank doesn’t give me crap when all I’m trying to do is park.
Really though, you got all these people that stalk around and wait for the nearest spot. Meanwhile, you pull into the lot after them, pick a further spot, and are in the door before they’ve parked.
we have this problem at the gym
you have the gym people, who largely really don’t care about how far they walk
and right next to the gym in a corner of a shopping center is a dollar store, and those customers (high % of old, almost immigrantly legal, and/or obese people) are not happy that all the trying to be healthy people have jammed the parking lot full; so they have to waddle in from a good long walk, which is a bit ironic, but lost on them
My window at work is right above a row of good parking spots and people camp out there starting around 7am, waiting for the overnight crew to leave. At least once a month, security had to come out to break up an argument.
Last year the Seahawks used their first pick in the draft, No. 35 overall, on defensive tackle Malik McDowell. Now they’re likely to release him, before he has played a snap in the NFL.
just wow, that would be an incredible bust of a pick
It is unclear whether McDowell will ever recover sufficiently from his ATV accident to be able to play in the NFL
Sign him up!! -btg
he was your guy if I’m not mistaken
I think Greg was all about him last year
Greg was ready to have McDowell’s baby last draft season
my defense now for everything is I’m old and can’t remember
GET OFF MY LAWN!!!
If it holds up at a Congressional hearing, it holds up on a blog.
Fact.
You gotta do better than that. That’s a waste of a -btg
Yeah they should have foreseen the ATV accident
Stupid on their part
Chase Edmunds
You’ll never catch him
But you’ll wish you did
He owe you money or something?
Nah, but he’ll save you some.

There’s a better video of them dancing.
Post it, wtf is wrong with you? I’ll delete this shit right now.
Look at the guy that replied “your beautiful”

Morning folks. I always liked CJ Anderson …a lot. One crafty runner. I still think he has a lot left in the tank if healthy. I know he was knicked up last couple years but still.. Get him a good line he will produce. Never got the Broncos not giving him more carries….331 carries over the ’14 and ’15 seasons with a 4.7 yard per carry avg pretty stout.
That juice ain’t worth ‘a squeezin’.
I dunno man. Somebody will. Good line..he can cut and roll.
He’s done.
He can cut and roll subway bread
I can cut and roll.

It took me awhile, but no I’m good at it! don’t throw me away
??? Not so sure.
No
You watch Denver much ???
Sure……….still no
Better than Ronald Jones bro 😊

Looks like D_C only that guy is taller, in better shape and has more hair.
D_C could probably grow the clown sides.
lol
depends on what he wants. he’s carried the ball 750 or so times in reg and playoffs, and he’s only 27. if he’s not looking for much money, having Anderson, Thompson, and a draft pick, and 2 of the other guys going into camp, maybe a UDFA early on, prob looks better than where they’re at now. I’d agree if he was a couple of year’s older and had 1500 carries.
Redskins
Damn tempting. But too good a crop this year to turn back perhaps.
No, Redskins
Damn tempting. If he dont sign before draft and we dont get Guice or Johnson sign him and draft R Anderson next year. Go OL 1st pick
Tanks, but no tanks
Agreed
But don’t we already kinda have duplicates of him in SPerine and RKELLEY?
From what I saw looked like RKELLEY dropped about ten pounds
SPerine should follow suit
Drop pounds and get quicker
That’s right.
??? Just trying ti maximize the draft w no 3rd pick…I just liked this guy
Our coffee machine is being replaced so when I arrived this morning there are several carafes of Starbucks in the kitchen on our floor.
Pretty damn good.
A good cup of java (as opposed to crap coffee) can be the difference in how my day goes. Sad, but it’s true.
I now return you to your regularly scheduled blogging.
When faced with Folgers……two bag it.
Twice the crystals!
Not the instant stuff. The 2 year old ground coffee. We have a three pot commercial brewer at work. If I have to use the folgers or Maxwell House, I’ll use two bags instead of one. Stronger is better if it’s shitty coffee.
I have a drawer-full of those coffee packs from hotel stays over the last few years.
Never, brewed, one. Not sure why I have them.
Zombie apocalypse, lol
not sure what it is, but I do like their “conference” (commercial carafe) coffee
is it the way it’s brewed? perc vs drip? hotter temp than “pedestrian” machines? is it their 2x caffeine blend?
No idea. But I was glad it was there as early as I come in. 4, shiny carafes, gleaming like chromed mortar shells lined up neatly on the counter top. This shit is hittin’.

Comey’s wife said “many of my good friends worked for Hillary, I really wanted a woman president”
You need one of theses:

See, that’s the thing. I could gain this badger’s respect, he would be on my team, and we would fuck shit up.
that’s not sexist at all
I noticed Comey is/was all in for Hilldawg, Comey and his husband/wife, whatever.
But he didn’t vote so how could that be true??????
– D_C
It was funny when he said “I just assumed she would win”, with a dejected look on his face.
If Trump was tweeting shit about me, I’d get on the twitter and tell him to meet me outside the White House and say it to my face.
Is there a Red Robin on PA Ave.?
Right?
His hotel (Trump Int’l) is like, I think about 5 blocks from the White House, you could meet him there for a bar brawl.
Trump shows up in a robot suit, rips you limb from limb.
Michael Cohen shows up with an aluminum brief case full of hundie’s, says, “Sigh here……This never happened”, leaves the case and walks out.
I’d give him that. I’m not much of a fighter, but I’ll wager odds in my favor thinking that he isn’t coordinated enough to effectively use the suit; then I’ll walk over to the hotel bar, get a glass of water, pour a salt packet in, mix, and pour it over the suit and walk away
It’s got the latest software, reads his thoughts and makes it so.
This is a wide open door, fwiw
if it is that good. I ain’t worried. because he’d be off in some Caribbean penthouse with models peeing on him and the suit
I’m thinking Austin or Walt can drum up a snappy joke.
extra points if the joke DOESN’T involve Russia
Aye
you could lure him outside by making sounds like cheeseburger.
I’d love to hear your example, lol
A sizzle?
“cheeburger-cheeburger-cheeburger-cheeburger!”
‘No Coke, just Pepsi.’
“No fries; chips.”
he can HEAR pudding
But he’s not. So I guess the President is safe.
the thing is, he’s a fat old guy who never works out
if you meet him outside, he’s going to meet you with some mob-style thugs. this isn’t Samurai or Viking type pride, he’s going to do it NY style. you’re going to have some fit secret service guys hold you while one gives you the wood shampoo. and then he’s going to stand over you and take credit for it.
I’ll show up with women in vagina hats. They’ll handle the SS.

WTF? That’s all A’s for a B grade? What is this, UVA??
Ikr
Meh, I don’t worry about that. I just look at the players. I took two guards for fuck’s sake, lol
and added a 3rd punter to the roster
If he’s added and others are subtracted…what happens then? C’mon science guy, what happens then?
space-time tears, unfathomable compression waves destroy the Milky Way?
Nailed it!
I think Round 4 – 5 with what you got already you need a TE (or WR that has fallen inexplicably), CB, and LB that’s +speed but not dramatically undersized. 6th-7th round is good spot for prospective WR, OT, and S. And how did you pull off a trade with the Clippers?
I’ve never picked Teller, it was a cookie jar moment.
Weird thing was, Chargers to Vea at 13, lol
yeah, but who is going to stake their career that Vea is going to be that much better than Phillips in the Skins defense?
Not me, HPhillips has the goods.
Allen-Phillips-Ioannidis sounds like a pretty good DL
until they all get hurt

OBJ wants 20 million a year….WTF…who is gonna pay that?
He can make that and more if he straightens up. Sponsors will make him that money, but not from an individual team.
Hopefully the Ginas
if he did not play for the Giants, would he be the best WR in the league?
Not no but hell no to Dez. Do not want to take any snaps from Josh. He needs to play as much as possible to continue to develop. Plus it’s Dez, hate him only slightly less that the ewok.
So I’ll be relying on you guys during Draft Week. Will be at the camp, chasing trout and scouting gobblers (opens 4/28). Will grab a wifi when in ‘town’ (pop. 1800), two good ones: courthouse and emergency services. Also really good pub ~1/2 hour away where I might watch the 1st round, but will likely just tune in here.
10 days
What’s in 10 days?
Oh oh…the premier of The Avengers Infinity War
Good looking out
Da draft
That’s nine days out.
The current day is not counted.
Also, that’s my gig. Back off!
10 DAYS, it’s 7:37 AM…you go counting chickens that haven’t hatched, well, that’s on you.
Ask the internet.
Tonight, when I’m safe at home, and we’re on here listening to a blog fight…..9 days 🙂
But yeah, it is your gig.
Ehh…I’m happy to share.
Countdowns to the draft for everyone!

Dez Bryant wants to play for the Giants
He sweet on OBJ…”he gots good hair” – Dez
They do dry hump each other on the field. For sure on the DL.
No pay day in NY for Dez.
Wow a poll on 980 has 67% of folks saying its a mistake for us NOT to go get Dez. I don’t see it. He’s not the same WR since his foot injury and…he’s a bitch.
What the shit. Something in the water there? Or is that a bunch of pukes fans answering the poll?
People still want the Skins to sign EVERY free agent. Doesn’t matter who or where they are from. If Watkins got 16 a year…Dez is gonna want at least 10.
I like that video of the old man rocking out below! That will be me as well.
That IS me! Lol

Scherff says Ty Nseke is the strongest dude on the team.
Because we have that dude…we gotta add a nasty fucking guard on the other side of the line. We’ve spent years having pro-bowler here and there on the Oline, but never enough pieces to have a dominating line.
Lets make that happen Bruce.
So Bergstrom is 6′ 5″ 315, is listed as a tackle, but his 3 starts last season were at center? Good versatility.
Calahan must like him. Need versatility
Yes indeed. Keim reports he can play guard too, so he’ll kind of assume Long’s role for a lot less money.
Hey Lb. How are the eyes doing?
Hey k0n, thanks for asking: treatment is going very very well. Just drops each night, and the pressure has dropped considerably! Will probably have to do it for the rest of my life but that’s fine of course.
Happy tuesday!
Back at ya, 65!

So this basically says a lot of nothing… waste of time
Thanks
Basically says he thinks it’s unlikely Gettleman will trade down. Reading comprehension.
That’s much better then having to click ‘see more’
I know it’s a lot of reading.
Not really, The Arms of Krupp is a lot of reading, the tweet said it all. We’ll see in a bit.
Which basically means he has no clue what Gettleman will do… so a lot of nothing
Like I said… pointless
Yep, about as pointless as every other draft rumor, but what you gonna do?
Very true

Where’s Walter on that list?
Guess you have to be a celebrity… snow clown doesn’t make you a celebrity I guess.
damn .. shit . I ain’t laughing . Not at all.
Old people… so stupid right?
I was amazed at all of the people that are a hundred plus or within a couple years of being a hundred
Old people suck… they just need to go ahead and make room for all the middle age people already. They’re living in dream world… of sorts.
? I hope you’re kidding. I want to be an old person one day. LOL! All I have to do is ask my kids and they’ll tell me I’m old already.
Yep… just being ridiculous
I’m wayyyyyyy past the age of the first bunch of adults I was calling old when I was 5 or so years old.
26 homes destroyed in Nottaway, a neighborhood in Elon, Virginia, yesterday. Miraculously though, no serious injury. Watching social media last night had at least 2 deaths and various missing. Misinformation run amuck.
The NWS hasn’t finished mapping this area but estimates are ranging from E2 -E3 as the tornado passed through Elon. It was reported to have been on the ground for 10 minutes.
The same tornado, though weaker, hit Lynchburg, and Craig County before that where it had a 17.5 mile track touched down. I saw the neighborhood today, remember taking my children down there for trick or treating more than one Halloween. Actually know some of those people from business through the years.
Your boys are out there, Buck, stretchin’ that big wire. It’s getting down to 32° tonight and the wind is blowing. Anybody that’s so inclined, give these folks a quick pray for strength and safety.
took down some transmission line huh ? time consuming fix . I been through Nottoway on 360 many times , elon just not ringing a bell
Not the same place. This is just a specific neighborhood in Elon. Yeah wire wrapped around trees like christmas lights, on the ground. The main lines feeding that whole area are down.
At least 10 trucks out with buckets up and an entire elementary school parking lot full of trucks. They’ll probably close the road again tonight. I drove through there today to check it out and it took 1.5 hours.
They get enough people on it , may not be bad . Takes a lot of wind to bring down transmission lines . Heavy duty shit.
A different Nottoway , an area in Elon , I know what you mean . Not Nottoway County , which is closer to Richmond , Farmville area.
Yeah, this is a neighborhood.
I gotcha
Most of the trucks looked like Elliot and AP
Appalachian Power ? Good company . They service where dominion stops as far as western Va . Duke power to the south
Yeah
Dominion does have generation and feed coming from Mt Storm in Bath . Coldest place I ever worked . Snowed in middle of the May there once when we were there . One motel and one restaurant , that’s it .
Yeah, they’re around, east of here. Lotta guys work for them.
Tore up Greensboro . Duke .
Yeah, I put in my time at Marshall Steam Station, lol, Belews Creek. You always brought your A game at a Duke station. Besides whatever Quality Control company doing the X-ray, and your company QCs, Duke looked at every film on every pressure weld and could call a shot bad above the X-ray CWIs. You put some shit in a weld and they’d get your money.
Duke has their shit together . great company . never lose money on their stock . You worked outages I guess .
Yup
That’s where the money’s at huh . They just need it done . Big money to burn
It was. I’m a family man now.
Right . Nuke plant shutdown is big bucks . Stand around getting paid for nothing majority of the time. Time goes by slow as hell though .
Coalfire is big bucks, too. You get paid to make perfect welds in not perfect conditions. Some days are gravy, some you want to die, all pays the same, all depends.
Buried lines solve that problem
Not these lines . Whole different ballgame .
Oh. I stand corrected thank you
I get carried away on these discussions , forgive me .
Np you know much more than I.
Did someone sign CJ Anderson already? Thought NPI mentioned something about him being scooped up already.
No, not me and I don’t want him.
still updating mock draft list Vea taking a big lead right now
and damn people stay off the deaths, that’s my job dammit!
LOL
Sorry, thought you were in bed already.
GET OFF MY LAWN!!!!!!

That was a sad one.
Aye
Saw this on Facebook and thought it was funny.

Not Harry!
Great sitcom
RIP

Teams don’t cut RB in their prime
“13. Washington
Washington gets: TE Garrett Celek; 1-9; 6-185
49ers get: TE Jordan Reed; 1-13
The Reed extension hasn’t exactly worked out for Washington. Injuries have kept the Florida product from matching his 2015 totals (952 yards and 11 touchdowns) over the following two seasons combined (897 yards and eight touchdowns). Nobody is questioning Reed’s talent, but with Vernon Davis under contract, Washington might very well consider whatever it gets from Reed going forward as a bonus.
Jay Gruden could be interested in trading up to draft one of the top secondary prospects, who might fall to the bottom of the top 10 if things shake out right. Swapping out Reed for Celek, who had a pair of 60-yard, one-touchdown games with Garoppolo in the fold, would free up cap space and bring a more reliable player to the roster. The 49ers have plenty of cap room, and while George Kittle exhibited promise as a rookie, Kyle Shanahan should have no trouble finding snaps for two tight ends in his offense. Reed would be a high-upside lottery ticket for the Niners.”
Net: Swap TEs, move up 4 spots in first round, pick up a 6th round pick.

I’d take that shit
find it hard to believe the Niners would do that . Reed’s toe/foot and whatever else are still jacked up. TC is already a big question mark, but I would do it in a hot minute if that is so.
I’d do it just to free up the cap space
Yeah . No way he will play a full season .
Then we trade down a few spots picking up a 3rd round pick.
Whatever they do after freeing up the cap space from Mr. Glass is all gravy
teams who are trying to continuously improve and looking to get younger and infuse talent are willing to at least consider trading just about anyone on the roster. I would seriously think about dangling Kerrigan as a draft day trade to include players and/or picks. While RK is great if you’re able to parlay that into 2-3 more young studs I’d totally understand. Hes’ been a consummate pro and its nothing personal but he would be highly coveted by several “close” teams.
unpopular but those are the things you consider when trying to fill legitimate starting spots like LG.
Thoughts?
I wouldn’t dangle him….he’s a cornerstone. That having been said, there isn’t anyone on the roster who I’d consider untradeable if an offer came that that blew me away.
fair point. I know its apples and oranges but if arguably the most talented WR (or top 3) in the league like OBJ is being offered nobody should be untradeable. We won 7 games. Talent (and injury luck) are needed.
1st the injury isn’t luck. Jay Gruden has that trend. Until that is fixed, then it’s prob moot. If it is fixed, this team is, depending on Alex Smith, a playoff contender. They showed that before and after the injuries last year. If they stop giving up Game 1 every year, team could have had double digit wins. The starters were pretty good last year, even without much at WR.
Didnt have much at rb either
Everyone on this roster can be traded. Cornerstones have value. Do it before hes been shifted to 3rd down rotationstone.
Agreed. Never fall in love with players on a 7-9 team.
right. Good if not great teams trade players before their long in the tooth and of little value….I mean we just traded a young up and comer for a QB and that is atypical of teams trying to ‘rebuild’ or seriously trying to improve…
I don’t think you’d get as much for RK as you’d think. Part of draft value is the rookie scale.
Bryce Harper, first inning, shattered his bat to where all he had left in his hand was the handle.
Oh yeah, homer to deep center field.
Roy Hobbs’ish.
Insane talent, mad skills.
That HR will get replayed 900 times tonight.
Future Dodger Bryce Harper.
You can have him
400 million for slightly above average
lol.
Insane.
Am I wrong on his stats
^ D_C
Leading the majors in HR’s right now. Has a slugging percentage that has others on the list like Babe Ruth, Walter Johnson, Barry Bonds and others and he’s what, 25 even though it seems like he’s been in the majors now for a decade.
He’s getting closer to 500 mil and he is going to bring back that and more to the club that pays him.
It’s true so not dc
You’re cherry picking, Greg.
Call it what you want
It’s 100 percent true
Okay D_C.
Insane
Greg, check his OPS for starters. Slightly above average NL MVP.
He’s gonna sign for something like 400 million
What happens when he hits 27 bombs
Harper, to me, is a great… not really sidekick, but really good pairing with a guy who is ‘the’ guy for a team, and let Harper steal 2nd and 3rd for that guy to win him on home. Maybe entering the 2nd half of his 20’s he becomes the guy. the thing is, the Nats don’t have the TV deal that some of these other teams do.
Bryce Harper isn’t “slightly above average”. He’s way, way above average.
.285 career hitter
Averages about 22 home runs per year
He’s only 25, won ROY and one MVP already and would have won last year if he didn’t get hurt. If there’s a legitimate ping, it’s that he misses too much time with injuries. 2016 was a down year for him but he was trying to play through a should injury. 2 of the last 3 seasons he’s had an OPS of >1.000. And is at 1.219 so for this year. But yeah, that .285 average.
In all seriousness, I think the Dodgers are too cheap to sign Harper, as weird as that sounds.
they also are in the early end of a big 25 year local TV deal. if that deal were coming up, Harper would be a great signing because he can be an exciting player for 140 or so games a year he isn’t hurt. The playoffs are typically on a different station, so when he disappears for that, less of an issue for their local ratings.
Hit over 30 homers once
Hit over .300 twice.
Not for the kind of money he’s going to get
Not worth it
LOL.
CJ Anderson is a UFA? Good player.
Not anymore.
Only 27; just under 750 carries in reg and playoffs, 4.4 per rush
Ryan Kerrigan’s cap numbers for thee next 3 years….
2018- 9,000,000
2019- 10,500,000
2020- 11,000,000
…steep
He’s incredibly productively
I’d suggest that they rework that deal into something more team friendly with incentives but I know how that makes folks up here get all funny
I’m okay with the number…he is productive.
It’s already team friendly.
2018 cap percentage – 7%
2019 cap percentage – 7.3%
2020 cap percentage – 5.9%
Could it be that now they tweak their offer to Hankins?
Probably not.
Why should they bid against themselves? That’s negotiating 101. It’s not like Hankins is an All-Pro – he’s a guy who’s been a free agent two years in a row.
depends on what the hold up is. could be more years, more g’d money, might not mean more money per se, esp this year. there is that, yes. but I don’t think they’d pay him like an all pro
I’d still go after him
Draft Payne and then your DL is three guys under 25 two on rookie deals
With Lanier ionniadis and nanny McPhee rotating in
They certainly don’t need to both sign Hankins and draft another interior DL high like Payne, to me. I think it should be one or the other at most, not both.
Agree to disagree
How long has the dL been ignored
Gotta get Scherff locked up next spring.
next spring might be looking to get the band back together, the old old band and the new old band.
Mike Shanahan + Vinny Cerato… Long Beach and Compton now U know U in trouble.
Also heard Nsekhe sign his RFA tender.
Insookie
Great to see the Redskins lock up a guy like Nooshkie.
