The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

Watching the latest in the incredibly long list of free agent QBs come to Washington, collect a big paycheck and immediately get injured really has me bummed. (Seriously, poor Fitz going down after only three series has to be the most on brand WFT thing ever.)

I have zero interest going forward in ...

Sorry to hear about the troubles, man - I hope things are better. Wish your team could have done better in week 1! Maybe we'll get back on track Thursday night?

Yeah really feels like LB is the shakiest spot still. I would not have been disappointed to see the team draft another one after Jamin Davis this past spring - though I guess Cosmi is looking like a pretty smart pick in the second round.

Glad to see AGG made it to the practice squad.

And MAN I ...

Wow seeing some tough cuts on the final 53 man roster. Anybody stand out to you as a big surprise?

I was kind of shocked to see Jimmy Moreland on the list today. Thought he had been a pretty solid contributor the last year or two.

And wouldn't say I was necessarily shocked, but I figured Antonio ...

I'll be honest I like all three QBs on the roster, but fully expect Fitz to be the starter.

My impression of Fitzmagic btw is that he's been fairly durable through his long career. Is that true?

I agree 100% If they are resigning players, it shows the team is making a commitment to keeping the team intact, but to me more importantly, it shows that players are wanting to stay as well. When was the last time players wanted to really stay in DC.

I'm going to say sometime around when the ...

I'm so happy this morning to see the team signing Jonathan Allen and Logan Thomas to new contracts. We have some talent on this roster its good to see the team working early to keep those players here!

I can live with that, man, thanks for the suggestion. I'll just pretend I don't know him!

Its pretty strange Rivera hasn't really had much to say about Allen at all when talking about those QBs. I know he's currently out, but he's barely mentioned him at all talking about the current QB "competition".

Think Fitz will start with Heineke the #2.

How long until Moses signs with Philadelphia???

YOU'RE DEAD TO ME, KERRIGAN!!!!

hah just kidding. Great dude, and I appreciate everything he put into this team. Unfortunately won't be able to wish him well in his next position!

See we grabbed another DB:

Washington To Sign DB Bobby McCain

This is breaking news. Please refresh for updates.

After meeting with the Washington Football Team earlier this ...

That was tragic. I listened to C00ley discuss this on a podcast the other day, and he was pretty choked up about it.

I keep seeing stuff about the team possibly bringing Kerrigan back. I'd love to see it strictly because he's proven to be a great guy, leader, Redskin. Honestly not that sure ...

I guess we can afford it because we're probably spending what $14m on all three QBs this year??? hahah.

I really like Brandon Scherff. Kind of hate to see that they seem to be preparing to move on from him next year.

btw what is the story with WFT only signing ONE undrafted FA this year? That seems really unusual for this team. Is that unusual for most teams?

If memory serves me correctly, we only signed four last year.

Interesting. That's way less than I would have guessed.

This is a COVID casualty ...

Yeah you're right about this being a problem for the next four years. Its such a bummer that we probably can't afford to keep all of them. I don't pretend to know what makes most sense financially, but I'd really like to see the team start extending some of these guys. It seems like we constantly ...

I honestly consider Antonio Gibson to be a stud.

He’s fast and powerful - he’s got true fire power.

And he was a wide receiver in college - the man can do it all.

Yeah he's a stud, I don't disagree. On the other hand, I would not hesitate to bet on Najee Harris for offensive rookie of the year ...

Yeah my feeling is that if there's anybody we should trust to draft a linebacker, its probably Rivera and Del Rio. I think they probably know something about the position. I was hoping for Darrisaw there myself, but what the hell do I know???

So at some point we're going to have to pay one of these guys. Allen or Payne. Which one gets the big $$ extension to stay here or does either?

Man is this a new avatar for me, Boss? It looked new to me, couldn't remember it from the old site. If so, THANKS so much! My all time favorite player in my all time favorite Washington Redskins play.

lol

Yeah, there is a message for ya about it in the Site news forum. :D

hah sorry man I ...

Oh MAN! Thanks so much! I did spot it the other day its awesome and much appreciated. And thanks again for all of the time and effort you've put into running this site.

The deal frees up cap room for the Dolphins, who will have to allocate lots of dollars to their oversized draft class. On Thursday, they’ll start things off with two first-round choices at No. 6 and No. 18 overall.

I was trying to understand why Miami made this deal, but I guess this part is the ...

Can't disagree with anything on your list, Boss.

I think with Sean Taylor, history might not really appreciate what we fans were seeing in the year he passed away. He was going to be one of the game's greatest, and we got to see it, ever so briefly. There was something different in that season ...
