Warner to test the waters, wasnt able to reach deal with Cards.

Skins throw 54 mil to D'Angelo Hall and he accepts (like he didnt do teh Rod Tidwell dance)...Snyder just keeps keep'n on.

Just to name a few teams that have lesser calibur qb's at teh helm currently or would upgrade with him:

Every team in the NFC NOrth not named GB
Every team in the NFC West
Buf
NYJ
KC
TAM
Handful of others...

Will he go to these teams? Probably not. I guess bagging groceries humbles you enough and makes you realize that you need to accrue as much as you can, while you can.

As long as Snyder is the owner, I'd say the latter is usually more prudent.

Jets get Bart Scott for 5 years/$40 million, Ray Lewis has hurt feelings.

Skins dish out $100 million for a thug DT with motivation problems and $54 million for a thug CB that at 25 has already burnt bridges and been shipped out of Atlanta and then was released by the Raiders. Wow. Bye bye salary cap. You know Snyder is going to make sure that there is no collective bargaining agreement reached now so they go into the uncapped season.

The deal isn't finalized yet, but it's close.

I love the moves, as an Eagles fan. Keep signing guys like this. Hall getting that number is laughable. I swear Snyders does $hit like this just to force other teams to overpay for TRUE quality players. What CB of ANY talent will not look at that and say that he doesn't command more?? There were only 2 real 'teams' in the NFC East going into the offseason and it appears to remain so. Two actual teams built to be menaces for a period of time and two win-now ensemble of overpaid miscreants. Now if we could only find a a way to beat those sad bastards. (skins)

if he plays they way he did in ATL he's gonna be worth the money he signed for. Al Davis and Oakland gave him more money then the skins did, and i don't think its too far fetched that he gets asanti samuel type money. as much as people say the skins have good corners..... they don't...... springs is getting long in the tooth and rodgers has NEVER lived up to his top 10 draft status, Hall is a legit #1 corner that should help out the up and coming safties we have -----Landry and Horton. Now lets see if there is enough left in the account to get taylor back

The Redskins are a freaking joke. I disagree that they're driving up the prices of other free agents, since their total asshattery is recognized and understood. They'll have a good first half of the season and tank down the stretch like every year. Snyder needs to get run out of town for that team to ever win anything again.

I still think that Jason Campbell is not the answer. He doesn't impress me at all.

If I were a Skins fan, I'd be worried about Jim Zorn. I think Campbell has talent but isn't used properly.
