Not thrilled, he is supposed to be a locker-room/team problem.
Supposed to be?

DRC and Scandrick are has been, washed up garbage. Again, this team wouldn't pursue Mathieu but yeah let's sign some guys who are way past their prime to take Breeland or Fuller's spot. It makes ZERO sense.
LOL.
Hankins is a good player though, IMO. Far better than Scandrick (so...more costly). Sign him and we really are in a position to draft BPA at 13.
Or, again....make Ripened Fruit happy and trade back. Which, as this off season progresses, is seeming more and more like a good solution.
If we had 16m left, just used say 4m of it on Scandrick, then we have 12m left. Sign someone worthwhile for 8m (preferrably for D or OL), and then draft away......
Mathieu can’t stay on the field. Chances are he wasn’t interested in us either. Breeland was barely average too often.
I can't recall being as irritated or frustrated with a Redskins FA signing in a very long time. THis is one of the worst deals I've EVER seen this FO make. They better get Hankins because if they don't they would have gone cheap and signed a stopgap for a year or so. I absolutely agree, it's a damn downgrade. You let go of two 20-something backs, one of them with a bright side, and replace them with an aging veteran whose play is on the decline. Honestly I do not understand the logic here. I'm not a football guru, I'm no genius, but this is literally common sense that they got WORSE in a position they were supposed to get BETTER in. It doesn't take a ****ing genius to figure that out.
Breeland barely average? Against Antonio and Dez that one game 2 years ago, but last seaaon Breeland was above average in most games if not excellent. He graded out higher than Norman.
He doesn't have the same reputation as his teammate Norman, but quietly Breshaud Breeland had a stellar season for the Washington Redskins. His vastly improved balance on changes in direction resulted in 19 passes defensed, a career high. He's an excellent athlete, capable of playing press-man coverage and routinely forcing tough catches.
I’m trying to follow your rant here. You upset Breeland is our and Scandrick is in? Or Fuller for Scandrick?
Fuller was price to get Smith. It’s not like they wanted to lose him. Breeland is damaged goods, IMO. Head case, expensive, and simply a dim bulb. I’m not a huge fan of Scandricks, but he’s far cheaper than Breeland, both in term and cost. DCR prob want 8m plus. So Scandrick over him.
And Honey Badger wasn’t shopping himself. He could’ve gotten 10-11m people were saying. He went to Houston on a 1yr prove it deal. We weren’t ever a part of that.
Scandrick is much older than either though. "Mathieu is injury prone" some say, but if he's that what is Scandrick? Someone above posted how many games he missed. This signing is just an attempt to get a body to fill in the corner position when Hankins hopefully agrees which is the best case scenario. Worst case scenario is Hankins goes somewhere else and Scandrick is left on the roster to either sit out injured or play subpar football.
He got thrown at. A lot. He gave up a lot of big plays. 19 passes defensed is 1 a game. That’s good?
PD is a joke stat. Tight coverage dictates a throw away and no chance of a PD.
Do you think Norman was better? I have yet to find anywhere that grades him worse than Norman last year. Take a look at PFF. He is not a top corner sure which means he is going to take his lumps. IIRC he was graded top 30 3 years in a row at PFF.
Durability and tackling are nothing to ignore when grading corners. He did great vs the run.
Everyone knows why they don't like Breeland.
