How can the Redskins keep signing so many marquee players and not get into cap hell? :scratch:

Noble: "He is not a player who hits the crease and gets into the opposition backfield, but is a superb anchor against the run."

"Upshaw, 27, is a seven-year veteran who will provide toughness and also outside pass rush skills to the Redskins line. He will sign a five-year deal worth $7.5 million and including a $2 million signing bonus."

Noble was just what we needed!

Upshaw's contract was very responible for this early in FA. We could swung that.

Both of these guys would have been GREAT additions to our front 4.
DAMN IT!

well TD said he was gonna take it slow and yep he did and screwed us out of getteing a couple of very good players.

We can't get everybody. Maslowski and Simmons signed before we had a chance. Other than those two, Noble might have been the only player we were interested in.

We were the first team to sign anybody. So, taking it slow, just means not to rush and overpay for players.

Yes, I would have like Noble but there are other options. A little impatient aren't we?

I'm don't think these were great signings but i'm not gonna rush to the conclusion that our FA has gone to crap based on the first 2 days.
