Erasmus James is a Redskin

I had a feeling we'd go after this guy.  I guess the pros outweigh the cons here...he's got big upside (I think.  Has anyone actually seen him play since 2005?), Palermo coached him at Wisco, and he was cheap.  7th round conditional in 2009 cheap.  He's still relatively young (26) and we've got depth issues on the D-Line.

But will he ever play again?  He's clearly not in football shape now, Minnesota told him he would be cut 4 days ago after he failed a physical.  I don't like bringing guys like this on board because he'll immediately demand more attention from the training staff then his performance warrants (I'm not talking about potential).

Good move?
