    Washington Redskins Redskins sign Atogwe to five-year

    Redskins sign ex-Rams safety Atogwe to five-year, $26M deal

    ASHBURN, Va. - Free-agent safety O.J. Atogwe has signed a five-year, $26 million contract with the Washington Redskins, upgrading a vital position on a defense that ranked 31st in the NFL last season.
    Atogwe signed the deal Thursday, two weeks after he was cut by the St. Louis Rams following six seasons.
    Kareem Moore started 11 games at free safety for the Redskins last season, but he was inconsistent and finished the season on injured reserve. He is recovering from right knee surgery.
    The signing reunites Atogwe with Redskins defensive coordinator Jim Haslett. Atogwe spent three of his seasons in St. Louis playing for Haslett, who was the Rams' defensive coordinator and later interim head coach.
    Atogwe has 22 career interceptions, including three last season.

    Dan Snyders $$$ can attract a lot of guys on the move. Contract doesn't seem too overblown though. Just wonder if Atogwe plays like his former self or if he turns into another Adam Archuleta and the Skins end up cutting him quickly.
