The Washington Redskins sign Sean Ryan

Blogged under Free Agent Additions, Bloglockers, Front Page, General Redskins Talk by admin on Thursday 11 March 2010 at 10:16 am

The Redskins have signed 29-year old TE Sean Ryan to a 1-year contract.  Ryan played in 10 games for the Chiefs last season in which he caught 14 passes for 135 yards (9.6 avg) with 2 TD grabs.  Ryan has now played in 43 games in his NFL career and he has caught 26 passes for 240 yards (9.2 avg) with 2 TD grabs.  Ryan is a good run blocking TE so I like this move for the Redskins as Mike Shanahan likes to run the ball more than he throws it.

The Washington Redskins sign DT Maake Kemoeatu

The Redskins have signed 31-year old DT Maake Kemoeatu to a 2-year, $7 million dollar deal.  Kemoeatu missed all of last season with the Panthers due to a Achilles injury.  Kemoeatu has played in 107 games in his NFL career in which he has made 208 tackles, he has 4 sacks, 1 forced fumble and he has defensed 7 passes.  This signing should help the Redskins’ run defense as Kemoeatu is a load at 6′5″, 345 pounds.

The Washington Redskins sign Artie Hicks

The Redskins have signed 31-year old G/T Artie Hicks to a 3-year deal.  The Redskins will likely use Hicks inside at guard and he is a massive guy at 6′4″, 335 pounds.  Hicks played in all 16 games (3 starts) for the Vikings last season.  He has played in 94 games (58 starts) in his 8 year NFL career.  I like this signing for the Redskins as Hicks will help them rebuild the offensive line into the kind of group that Mike Shanahan wants.

The Washington Redskins release Ladell Betts

Blogged under Leaving Town, Bloglockers, Front Page, General Redskins Talk by admin on Friday 5 March 2010 at 3:08 pm

The Redskins have released 30-year old running back Ladell Betts.  Betts played in 10 games for the Redskins last season and he carried the ball 56 times for 210 yards (3.8 ypc) with 2 TD runs.  He also caught 17 passes for 179 yards (10.5 avg) last season.  Betts played in 103 games in his 8 years with the Redskins and he carried the ball 776 times for 3,176 yards (4.1 ypc) with 13 TD runs.  He also has caught 165 passes for 1,505 yards (9.1 avg) with 3 TD grabs with the Skins.  Betts helped out on special teams too as he returned 86 kickoffs for 2,062 yards (24.0 avg) with 1 TD return for the Redskins.  The Redskins probably would have kept Betts if he didn’t hurt himself so bad last season.
