Legit envious of John Lynch and the 49ers.  They know what they are doing.  Getting Chase Young for a late 3rd is fuggin robbery 

With how injury prone chase young is, it's not the worst trade for the commanders. He was great his rookie year, but has been pretty non-existent since then (Although he has had a good start to this season). He's honestly made of glass and I wouldn't be surprised if he gets hurt within the next few games.

I think the commanders could have gotten more for Sweat than they did - That was their bigger screw up

Bieniemy is putting way too much weight on the passing game. Their OL is terrible at pass protection and they have a solid running game when he's actually letting them run the ball. But he's treating Howell, a 2nd year pro and 1st year starter, like he's mid-career Patrick Mahomes. I'm as high on Howell as it gets but there's too much weight on him right now. The guy is tougher than a $2 steak and the hits don't impact him mentally and he'll still stand in there and make the throws while staring down the barrel but you see his accuracy drop off over the course of the game. It doesn't matter how tough you are mentally and physically, the hits eventually eventually start having an impact and he's getting hit like very few QBs have ever gotten hit and his OC isn't helping him out of the OL out. They need to be running the ball. But losing their two pass rushers is going to put them even more behind the eight ball in the scoreboard and likely lead to even more pass happiness as their D gets scorched.

Having grown up a Redskins fan in the DMV and then living in Charlotte for a long time…it kills me how my Redskins family doesn't understand that patterning after the Panthers is comical.

Ron Rivera is their current head coach with almost GM power.

Marty Hurney is the Redskins current Executive VP of Football Player Personnel…and still a yes-man to Ron (for the 3rd time?).

How many times in NFL history has a GM gotten fired, rehired by his own team…then that coach gets fired…and the coach basically re-hires that GM (who is technically his own boss)?  

**Getting to hire your boss must be fun!!!**

Doing it three times with two different organizations is Three Stooges hilar.

Only twice in NFL history has a team with a losing record made the playoffs:

1.) Carolina with Ron Rivera

2.) Washington with Ron Rivera

Stats that legends are made of.

Panthers are comical and Washington just copies their failures, which is beyond belief.

Not to derail your rant, but this isn't true. 2010 Seahawks and 2022 Buccaneers also hold this title.

The insiders are saying it was just a third because Chase has made it clear he intends to test free agency so he’s just a rental. If he were willing to sign long term with somebody he would have gotten a higher return. That and folks still want to see him better after his injury. 
 

But I agree. Dudes a steal for a third and I can’t imagine he wouldn’t want to stay in SF after lining up next to Hargraves and Bosa.

If Young got traded, Burns should have

I’d be livid if we only got a third or second for Burns. My guess is there just weren’t any takers. Burns hasn’t looked great this year and he is about to be $30M per year.

I don't agree. The Bears second round pick is likely to end up like a late first rounder. His deal was expiring anyway and it's not like the Bears are going to compete for the playoffs this season. They could have just signed him in free agency with all the cap space they are going to have. They need as many picks as they can get.

The non-exclusive tag was created for situations with players like Burns.

A little follow-up...

I've seen it reported that the Raiders weren't taking calls yesterday, so even if anybody had wanted to make them an offer they might not have been able to because they were busy firing everybody 😕

Also, this...

It's speculation, but it's worth a thought.

If it does happen, probably won't be anybody all that notable.

per Albert Breer

Silence from New England, Carolina and Denver reflects, to me, a very short supply of buyers this year. I’ll dig this week into why it played out that way, because there were opportunities out there for teams that wanted to take a swing or two. In the end, there simply wasn’t a great appetite on the part of contenders to pick up the bat

Fitterer tried no one was interested in what we selling

      I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.

      Panthers WR Xavier Legette named potential trade candidate for 2026 offseason

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.

      Schrader / Jeremiah mock draft experiment

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      Sadiq feels like a lazy comp.  Sure he would be a big improvement over what we have but at a position we don't and maybe can't (midget qb) utilize.  I hope the staff puts together a list of players you automatically take at 19 (Freeling, Lemon, Downs, Faulk) and if none are there, trade back to look at (Thieneman, McNeil-Warren, Proctor, Lomu, Allen, Iheanachor, Banks, Woods).  I get the people that think an OT would be a waste because we temporarily patched that hole, and ILB and safety are a waste because that is high to take those particular positions, but by trading back we get extra picks to fill every need.  A draft that has an OT, S, ILB, slot WR, and C would really put us in a good position moving forward if we get an extra first three rounds additional pick.
