There is also the a little less cap than his salary/bonus hit when you sign a veteran IIRC. Galete shouldn't cost more than 2 Million with incentives that may count for next year.

If his base salary is the vet minimum, with no more than a $60k signing bonus, he would only count as a 2nd-year player. Any incentives would mean he counts the full amount, though.

It may just be his way of trying to stir up interest. I wonder if teams a scared off by the domestic violence charges too.

I keep seeing references to Galette whipping his family members with a belt at a beach party. There's a YouTube video, but is that really him? It's bad quality. You certainly can't tell from the video itself.

It was him, but he wasn't whipping family. The fight was between his family and another group at the beach. He claimed he was just trying to protect his family.

Oh. I thought he only played for Washington last year. I guess it was longer
Hmmm it was just last year. I’m guessing he has absolutely no ties to McVay, just ties with Bill Johnson.

He signed with the Skins in 2015, then promptly missed two years, 2015-16 with the skins, with injuries. Yes, there is a connection. I'm guessing McVay saw him over those two training camps, before he was injured...he may have even talked to him. :whistle:

Saw him being carted off the field twice and never played a game. That’s a very weak connection. Saying he worked with Johnson is accurate.

Ok, I can find no signing for this guy. Must be speculation?

I doubt anything happens at all but if it does it won’t be until the team gets back home.

Heh. He probably flew out to Cali, and the team forgot to mention they would be in Maryland. OOPSIE

So he never saw him in camp, beating guys off the edge? Two years together is a connection, whether you agree or not. We can debate the level of said connection, but the fact there is a connection is accurate.

First year in camp he tore his achilies on august 26 and the second on July 25. I’m sure the new OC was great friends with him after a few weeks of practice.

This whole thing reminds me of the Donte Whitner scenario.
