He’s young and a great corner. HTTR

they are going to mummify flether and put him in a tomb, in order to have any money to sign him, redskins past 20+years=fail!!!

The Colts have won one Super Bowl in 20 years.They are/were a regular season champ, but a post season chump.

The Washington Redskins is just like the government in Washington. Just keep spending and ignore any so called budget constraint.

Do you even watch/pay attention to the NFL? Since Bruce Allen became the GM, the Redskins havn’t overspent on free agent signings.

And B, there is way too much talent to be had for less money this year. the upcoming draft is going to lead to a lot of cuts before training camp. with the rookie cap in place and the emergence of underclassmen in the draft, Darth Goodell has all but ensured the extinction of the overpaid cornerback.

That would be the kind of thing that would only happen in Washington. With rumors of a possible deal being struck on the cap penalty, its a possibility.

The Skins don’t over pay for players anymore and that is a fact.

If and I mean if the Redskins sign Talib it won’t be for a lot. Shanahan and Allen have yet to overpay for a player since they have been in charge and I don’t see them doing it now. All of those overpaid players the Redskins signed before were all done before the new regime arrived. Haynesworth, the year before Shanahan got there and believe me when I tell you that had Shanahan been there Haynesworth would have never worn the burgundy and gold. The Redskins right now don’t have enough cap space to sign their own players and future draft picks so what makes you think they are going to get into a bidding war for a player looking for a big payday. That gravy train left the station as soon as Shanahan and Allen arrived.

Shanny and Bruce Allen are running the show and from what I have seen I trust them to make good decisions as they have in the past couple years..That said I would rather bring back Hall than sign this headache

The first place is from Shanahan’s own propaganda mill. The other is from agents trying to get their players paid. Only thing is, that second trick stopped working two years ago.

One step forward, two steps back.

Who the skins really want is Kyle Arrington and we need the Patriots to lock up Talib so they wont be so concerned with Arrington. Arrington is also a local guy to the DMV area.

Skins will replace Hall’s $8 mil cap number with a vet who will get $1.5 to $2 at most. Talib won’t cost much due to off-the-field issues. It makes sense for them. They may go after a FS as well.

That Hip been taking him out year after year. Pretty sure he sat out the 2nd half of Pats and Raven playoff game after hurting it again.

With all that said, he’s also not very good. He gets beat deep regularly. But as a Bucs fan in Maryland I would love the Redskins to sign him just for the trash talking it would add to my arsenal…

No matter the paycheck – what they offer, I’m signing.

According to the linked USA Today story, this sounds like the idea of Talib’s former GM, Bruce Allen, and his old position coach/head coach Raheem Morris.

But the question does still remain; where would they get the scratch for this purchase? As it is, they barely have money to sign draft choices right now, let alone high-priced free agents.
