RUDIJOHNSON Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 4.9 million over the cap.........Have yet to hear of any cuts so what gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamplover Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I was thinking the same thing. WTF? They are the most over the cap yet they sign Randle El? hu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boohyah Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I was thinking the same thing. WTF? They are the most over the cap yet they sign Randle El? hu That's a good question. Arrington leaving was big and Brunell restructered, but other than that I'm not sure how they are doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, they picked up Brandon Lloyd for a 3rd rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUDIJOHNSON Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 They sign Archeletta (sp) and over-rated Randle-El, which was quite possibly the dumbest signing of the year.....Will he play qb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmenroc Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Yeah, I'd really like to know how exactly the Redskins do this. It's nothing new because they do it every year, but I'd like to know this year specifically how they're managing to be over the cap and continue to dish out fat contracts.

gmenroc Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Where did Aarongton go? I have been out of the loop for some time. Hasn't signed anywhere yet, but has mentioned publicly that he wants to remain in the NFC East and he does not want to play for the Cowboys. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that leaves the Eagles and Giants. And the Eagles just signed Shawn Barber (to play along Dhani Jones and Jeremiah Trotter). Arrington has visited the team already, so many are thinking that it's only a matter of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nosebleed Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Somebody wake Ernie and inform him that signing an aging cornerback is not going to cut it................. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUDIJOHNSON Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 Somebody wake Ernie and inform him that signing an aging cornerback is not going to cut it................. Amen.......Should have spent some money on Chris Hope..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOUND Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 The salary cap elevating to it's current figure has helped the Skins a lot. They won't need to cut nearly as many players as what was originally estimated. I still think the QB situation will be their undoing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringe Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 not good, that guy can catch anything. yea, except balls thrown right to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmenroc Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Amen.......Should have spent some money on Chris Hope..... Could still do that. I think we've got room for a Chris Hope and a DT yet in free agency. Could be wrong, but I'm thinking that might be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 26 TIMES Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Just signed Archuletta today also. What good is a cap if these assholes can still grab whoever they please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOUND Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 The cap swelled much higher than teams expected this year. Most teams have money to spend. After coming to an agreement with Arrington the Skins saved just under 5 mil. Then they restructured several contracts, including Brunell. The Skins are giving huge signing bonuses but they're also writing long contracts. By doing this the cap hit gets spread out longer but isn't as high year to year. It's a bit of a crazy way of doing things but when the owner has deep pockets and doesn't care ow much he's spending it's an effective way of operating under the cap.
