The spending continues in nation's capital
The Washington Redskins kicked off the free agency period by re-signing DeAngelo Hall to a 6-year, $54 million contract. That didn't merit a press conference because of what they did 5 hours later when they signed Albert Haynesworth to the richest contract for a defensive player in the history of the NFL. Haynesworth became the first non-QB to receive a $100 million contract, which spans 7 seasons.
Last night, the Redskins added another free agent, but this time on offense. Guard Derrick Dockery, who played for the Redskins from 2003-06, agreed to a 5-year contract worth roughly $27 million. The guaranteed portion of the contract is $8.5 million.
The past 2 seasons, Dockery played for the Buffalo Bills, who released him before the free-agency period began.
Yesterday, Dockery visited with the Detroit Lions, who made him offer, however decided to come back to Washington.
