What's up with Westbrook: Classy move by often-criticized Redskins wide receiver Michael Westbrook earlier this week. In noting he probably will not be re-signed by Washington, the unrestricted free agent took time out to laud owner Dan Snyder for his efforts to rebuild the team. There is some interest in Westbrook, but his signing isn't as imminent as he suggested. That said, he probably will sign somewhere in the next month and avoid a market that will become even more crowded after June 1, when wide receivers like Derrick Alexander (Kansas City), Keenan McCardell (Jacksonville) and Antonio Freeman (Green Bay) are released. http://espn.go.com/nfl/columns/pasquarelli_len/1374310.html If Freeman is released as len suggests, he could give the Texans a bigtime offensive weapon with Bradford and Gaffney in a three wideout set.
Rumor has it that "the Danny" is looking hard into signing Freeman to the Skins. Makes perfect sense. Have a great D, to go along with your great Runner. But no offensive line, no real receivers, no offensive line to block for that great runner, and Danny "Stinking" Weurful as your starting QB. Should be an excellent season to watch!
He's (I think) either the top or second highest payed WR in the NFL, and GB wants to reduce the salary. Supposedly he still thinks he's worth the premium $$$, which is why he'll shop around. When he finds out what he really is worth then, as RM95 said, he'll end up back in GB.
