Supposedly Suisham. Though he won't work out until tomorrow. I think I read that on the Post

That guy got cut from Dallas. Why would we want him here?

Not signing Vanderjagt is a mistake.

Maybe he's not the same kicker he was 2-3 years ago but he's still better than anything we've had in a long, long time.

He played for the Cowgirls but i think Vanderjacket would've been a step up. If we were going to end up with en ex cowgirl, i'd much rather have one of the most accurate kickers in history, but thats just me... ofcourse it'll be funny to hear FED EX chanting 'sushi' the first time he makes a feild goal.

not throwing money at Vinitieri (spelling?) was the mistake...

I definitely agree with that but there's nothing we can do about that now.

We had a chance to sign Vanderjagt now and didn't do it and that is a mistake too. Novak is not a quality NFL kicker and neither is Suisham.

Not one of the most accurate kickers of all time but THE most accurate kicker in NFL history. I see no reason why the redskins would not pick this guy up and fast. He is worth the money. . .

I heard somewhere that he hated the Dallas area and disliked Parcels... which could mean he would be a much better player for us than he was for them. Unfortunately we don't play the Cowgirls again until next season (barring a playof meeting)

On the other had. hes already made 2+ million this year and we all know we would over pay for him which would mean he would make two or three times what any other kicker would make in one year this year if he came to us.
