Redskins re-sign DE Daniels, OL Williams

Football Betting Lines

03/05/2010 - Ashburn, VA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Redskins on Friday re-signed defensive end Phillip Daniels and offensive lineman Mike Williams.

Daniels started all 16 games for the Redskins last year, recording 46 tackles, one sack, and three passes defensed. The Georgia product has been with Washington since the 2004 season.

The 37-year-old Daniels helped Washington's defense finish ranked 10th in the NFL last season.

"We are excited to have Phillip onboard as we prepare for our off-season conditioning program," Redskins executive vice president/head coach Mike Shanahan said.

The 6-foot-6, 305-pound Daniels, who is entering his 15th NFL season, has registered 615 tackles, 60 sacks, 16 forced fumbles, and 12 fumble recoveries in 187 career games (167 starts) with the Seahawks, Bears, and Redskins

In his first season with the Redskins last year, Williams started five games at right guard and three contests at right tackle.

The 30-year-old Williams has played in 60 career games (58 starts) for the Buffalo Bills (2002-05) and the Redskins (2009). The Texas product spent the 2006 season with the Jacksonville Jaguars on injured reserve and was out of football during the 2007 and 2008 seasons.

"Mike showed a tremendous work ethic and willingness to do whatever the team asked of him, and those are two of the traits we're looking for in Redskins players," Shanahan said. "We believe that he's only scratched the surface of his abilities so far, and look forward to seeing what he can do after a full offseason in our program."

Also on Friday, the Redskins signed defensive lineman Lorenzo Alexander to a contract extension. Alexander will be a linebacker in Jim Haslett's defense.

Last season, the 26-year-old Alexander played in all 16 games as a defensive tackle and defensive end, recording 22 tackles, two sacks, one pass defensed, one forced fumble, and one fumble recovery.

Two playoff teams from 2007 take center stage on the NFL Network Sunday night in a Week 2 NFL betting match-up when the (0-1) New England Patriots betting head south to Florida for a contest with the (1-0) Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

New England HC Bill Belichick couldn’t care less about the way his team plays in the preseason. With a chance to tie last week’s game with the Baltimore Ravens betting, He elected to go for the two-point conversion and outright victory. The conversion failed, and the Pats ended up falling to the Ravens by a 16-15 final count.

New England rolled off twelve unanswered points to give it a chance at securing the victory, but it never threatened to cover the 3.5-point spread. NFL bettors saw this one coming, as they bet the Ravens down from +6 to +3.5 as the week progressed. QB Tom Brady didn’t take part in the Patriots first preseason clash, but could see action this weekend.

His three replacements all put up embarrassing numbers. They went a combined 17 for 33, and threw three interceptions and no touchdowns. The New England defense was encouraging, as they held the Ravens to 2/12 third down conversions and surrendered just ten first downs. That ‘D’ should be bolstered with the addition of former Bucs and Denver Broncos betting safety John Lynch, who could make his Patriots debut on Sunday against his former mates.

HC Jon Gruden had to be impressed with the way his Bucs played on both sides of the ball in their dominating 17-6 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 1’s NFL pre-season betting action. Bucs bettors were quite happy with the effort, as they made a mockery of the fact that they were underdogs in the game.

The logjam at the quarterback position didn’t get any easier to separate for Gruden, as all four of his QBs had positive experiences in the first exhibition of 2008. The four combined to complete 28 of their 40 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown, and that was without starting QB Jeff Garcia in the lineup.

RB Michael Bennett had 19 carries and four receptions, totaling 90 yards and a touchdown. Expect to see more of Bennett, Kenneth Darby, and Earnest Graham, as they all compete for playing time with Warrick Dunn in the backfield this season. Defensively, the Bucs recorded four sacks and held the Fins offense in check all day.

First round draft pick Aqib Talib was impressive in the secondary, recording a tackle and two pass defenses in his debut. Don’t be surprised to see Talib in the starting lineup opposite Ronde Barber for the Bucs in ’08.

The betting trends suggest that NFL bettors should be backing the Bucs in this intra-conference exhibition.

These two teams hooked up last year in Tampa Bay, with the Bucs winning that game 13-10. The Buccaneers have only lost one preseason game at home dating back to the beginning of the ’05 preseason. The Patriots have had a mixed bag of results in their recent exhibitions. They have gone 2-2 ATS and SU each of the last three years.

New England currently sits as modest 1-point favorites in this preseason showdown with the ‘total’ now sitting at 34.5.
