Rumor around the league is that a Redskins- Josh Norman deal could be done by end of business Friday. And it'll be a big $ one. @NFLonFOX

Last time a player like @J_No24 Josh Norman became available, DeSean Jackson #Redskins were aggressive & signed the player

Per @JasonLaCanfora, #Redskins have made serious offer to Josh Norman, who has visit scheduled in DC, per @RapSheet.

Team is meeting with him tomorrow its down to the niners and skins for front runners. Talking 14-15 mil 5 years. (The money basically offered to Kirk)

How is it going to work financially? http://www.csnmidatlantic.com/redskinsb ... money-work

I have a feeling the skins will sign him tomorrow or Saturday. If they don't sign him then, he will be signed else where.

#Redskins view Josh Norman as a fit for how Joe Barry uses CB's. They love ball skills & tackling ability, which translate in all schemes.

Report: Redskins have made Norman an offer
The Washington Post reports the Redskins have made an offer to free agent CB Josh Norman.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Norman is fielding five-year offers worth $14-$15 million annually. With an estimated $11.6 million in cap space, the Redskins would have to get slightly creative with the structure of the deal or do some mild cap gymnastics to fit that size contract under the salary limit, but the cap is not a real concern. The 49ers are thought to be the other team seriously involved, but CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reports Washington's offer is "very strong." It is possible Norman signs during his Redskins visit on Friday.

I have a lot more confidence with Scot and the FO guys figuring out how to make it all work than with you know who

"Good price." Not going to happen. Why do you think he's on the market in the first place?

I hope we don't bite. I guess there's no harm in making a pitch, but some team is going to overpay to acquire him and I'd hate for it to be us.
