Skins may let Rogers walk...

The Washington Post confirms that the Redskins "seem content" to let CB Carlos Rogers walk in free agency.

Rogers doesn't want to play there, anyway. Having just recently turned 30, Rogers is no longer a spring chicken but should receive plenty of interest on the open market. The former No. 9 overall pick is a press corner, and a good chunk of the league's cornerback-needy teams are seeking man-to-man cover guys

He's a solid cover guy and a good tackler for a cornerback but he may have the worst hands in the NFL. I mean he can knock down passes but can't get an NIT to save his life.

Good Guy btw.

seriously though the guy was the 9th overall pick and he had one less int than the captain last year, who was what in the 6th or 7th round. If we get him cheap i guess but with him in his early 30's i bet cheap isn't gonna happen.

Asomugha has had 3 interceptions over the past 4 years yet is a top 2 conerback in the NFL. But we all know Munnerlyn is no Asomugha. Theres more to CB than just interceptions. He may be really good at coverage and QBs don't want to take a chance to throw his way.

Rogers is closer to being like Aso than Munnerlyn is for sure. He's a really good CB and probably the best one we can afford out of the top FA CBs that will hit the market once a CBA is agreed upon. And there are very few top FA CBs to choose from. We can't afford to be picky just because a guy isn't named Jonathan Josepth or Ike Taylor or Aso himself.

    • It probably would be. Given that most 6th and 7th rounders aren't NFL game day material except on the Panthers, the pick might improve us slightly with a drafted player, but I'd like to see us actually be able to open up the field. I do think some of our offensive problem stem from defenses aren't afraid of Bryce's arm. They cover a short field and that makes life a lot easier for them.  If it doesn't work though, unless we get rid of the scouting department and whatever drafting algorithm Dave is making us use, it won't really matter anyway. 
    • I think the Baker/Darnold thing has been overblown. QBs that struggle with the team that drafts them and go on to find success elsewhere often do end up going to multiple new teams before they figure it out and/or find the right situation. It just so happened that we traded for both guys in back-to-back years and neither player had quite figured it out yet. Baker, I think, needed more time and a better supporting cast. Darnold, I think, benefitted from a year on the bench in San Francisco a ton. I don't really have any ill will towards either of them. I think they both came here with the best intentions after coming from difficult circumstances; unfortunately the Panthers were - and still are, it seems - also in the process of figuring things out.
    • At this point this is all I want from this team. I'm done hoping for wins. I just want to see a competitive team for 4 quarters. Come out of the gate hard and don't give up no matter the score.
