Todd Yoder Is In The Fold

I just heard that Yoder and the Skins agreed to a three-year deal last night. Still working on getting some more details on the contract, but the team now has a back-up for Chris Cooley on the roster. I expect the Skins will announce the deal later today or on Wed.

Yoder performed well when signed and pressed into duty late in the season (after Christian Fauria's surgery) and made a heck of a grab in the back of the end zone in the Tamp game if I recall correctly, helping out Jason Cmapbell in his first NFL start. The coaches liked Yoder and clearly needed to do something else at the tight end position.

This leaves O Line as the primary area of concern in free agency, although like I suggested a while back, the Skins seem comfortable shying away from the guys making big bucks on the line and could addresss Dockery's departure in the draft should they trade down as expected.
