Keenum -> Redskins


Recommended Posts

If Keenum had switched places with Alex Smith, I bet the career numbers would have been close current smiths. Very similar in abilities. Alex had better coaching, teams, environment, misc. 

 

edit- Keenum for 3.5 is a steal too.

Think the writing is on the wall that Josh Norman is going to be cut.

 

Redskins were already cap strapped prior to this with some key productive starters still needing to be signed. 

They had 20 mil in cap space and Keenum is due 18 mil this year

Plus their starting LG, Jamison Crowder, Preston Smith, and Clinton Dix are are FA as well

Plus Brandon Scherff is on his last year of his rookie deal and will be wanting major $$$

Washington is only paying 3.5 mill for Keenum.... not even close to the 18.  Norman still could be gone though

Makes sense for both teams. The Redskins get a stopgap QB and the Broncos get something for a guy they were ready to move on from. I still expect both to look at QBs early. Keenum was always a bad fit in Denver. Elway likes big, strong armed QBs. Keenum is neither. He would've had to have played lights out last year to have stuck another season IMO.

Damn, didn't realize it was that bad. Honestly, the Redskins may have just wanted to let those FAs walk, play whoever at QB, and go full-on tank job in '19-'20 to make a run at the Bama or UGA QB.

Skins may only owe Kenum 3.5 like the other poster just pointed out. 

But that puts them down to 16.5 (a good 5 plus or minus will be used on draft picks) so they are looking at realistic 11.5 mil

Preston Smith will cost around 14 mil in this market.

Clinton Dix (who they just traded for) will cost 9 mil or so

Then still have Crowder to sign in that already weak WR group.

 

Shereff is going to want Andrew Norwell $$$ next summer

With how cheaply safeties went last year, I'd let C-D walk before I gave him anywhere near $9M. I just don't think the guy is that good.

I hope they let Smith walk just because I'd like to take a run at him but I'd tap out well before $14M.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
