Supposedly, the Skins signed linebacker Marcus Washington. More to come.

Hopefully this is true!

Also, have you seen Thomas' signing confirmed?

reported on ESPN's Bottom Line by Pasquarelli; to a 6-year deal.

Adalius Thomas? I haven't heard of any interest in him at all. Doubt we'll sign him.

I never thought the guy who started the thread meant it that we signed him. He sounded as if he just wanted our input. He never gave any factual info on if we signed him or not, so I didn't think we signed him.

And as far as Wiley goes, haven't heard anything about it but I would love it if it's true.

Thanks...

I heard Tom Tupa was at Redskins Park today. I heard we had an interest in Gardocki yesterday. Don't know how that will develop.

It must kill Pastabelly (I can't remember who coined that but it is funny) that the Skins have signed three of his top 30 UFAs including numbers 14 (Washington), 19 (Griffin) and 21 (Springs).

From the Colts ESPN message board:

I would tell Redskins fans that Washington has not been a game-changing force at LB, but many people feel he is about to become a monster after learning the game for a couple of years. That is why he is getting the kind of money he is getting.

Don't let us Colts fans convince you that he is garbage. We are somewhat ticked that he is leaving (or that we can't afford him), and many are trying to tear him down as a result. He'll be a tough player for you."

NBC4's Wally Bruckner reported from Redskins Park that Marcus Washington was scheduled to come to the park tomorrow, but had NOT been signed yet. George Micheal pressed him on this point, but Bruckner said his sources at the park said that a deal was not complete.

Basicaly official now that Marcus Washington is a Redskin. I really feel this is a awesome pick up for the skins. Hes young, great athlete, and has good size for LB. I follow the Colts regularly as they are one of my favorite teams, so I have seen Washington in action.

Hes a very solid linebacker, perfect replacement for Armstead and in the right scheme, should work out good for us.

Wally Buckner must be smoking something - I really don't think that everyone would be officially declaring him there without it being true - this is being reported as fact - not rumor
