Re: Draft Picture Update, Bengals Aftermath
 

At the beginning of the season, most picked this team to go 8-8, and more than likely the Skins will probably go 8-8. The early season success was a tease of sorts. Most teams have figured out the Redskins achilles heal by now, and Zorn has not adjusted. A baseball pitcher has an advantage the first time through the lineup, but from then on, batters adjust. Then good pitchers change up. Zorn hasn't. He is a man who has clearly fallen in love with his plan. Dangerous. This is not execution, as Zorn likes to exclaim. There can be no justifying a seven-yard pattern on 3rd and 8. But we consistently see this type of play calling.

[quote=Beemnseven;511830]But for how much longer? We can't count on a guy like him year after year without seeking out his replacement -- just like we failed to do for the O-line.[/quote]
I think Fletcher has a good two years left. H.B. Blades is supposed to be his eventual replacement.

[quote=ST21RIP;511824]trade springs, are and betts for fourth rounders.
trade the first pick for more picks lower in the draft

cut smoot, washington, thrash, et al

sign haynesworth and vilma

draft o line, d line and lb[/quote]

Ud leave us with only two corners in Hall and Rogers. And Springs contract is up at the end of the year.

Samuels, Rinehart, Mack, Thomas and Heyer as starters, Rabach can play G as a backup or switch him with Thomas. If Mack is there I would go get him.

Re: Draft Picture Update, Bengals Aftermath
 

Trade down in the first, pickup a 2nd rounder
1st round DT 2nd OT, 3rd DE, 5th OG, 6th LB

Mack?

[quote=RMSkins;511826]I would rather have OLB Aaron Curry Wake Forest if he's still available by the time we pick (highly unlikely).[/quote]

Guy is a beast but I think he's a top 5 pick. I would absolutely give up a first and 3rd for him now though. Maybe he'll have a crappy combine and fall to 17 or 18 (where I think we'll be picking). Maybe Al Davis will want ARE, Kelly, Thomas, and Springs for their #1 so we could grabbed him.

That's the guy Ive been touting since (SMOOT or Malcolm, can't remember which) brought him up. I think he could start at center or guard right away.

[quote=RMSkins;511827]Vilma is a MLB, we already have a pretty damn good MLB in London Fletcher.[/quote]

i'm aware. fletch wont play forever. put volma at strong side until fletch hangs it up. HB is not a first-string LB in this league.

What a waste of a post.

Re: Draft Picture Update, Bengals Aftermath
 

After today I'm not sure HB is a decent backup either.

If Mack is there I would go get him.[/quote]While we might find somebody better than Kendall if we wait to hit the market, we should probably work to resign him for two years or so before he hits the market. If we're going to target Alex Mack, I hope we trade down out of the first to do so. Middle of the first, he's probably overvalued. We could use our se.....well at least Jason Taylor is under contract next year!

Rinehart and Heyer have to earn their starting roles. We can't just give them roles. I would make a play for a center in free agency, and leave the rest of the line be after releaseing Rabach. I would then make a concerted effort to put a lot of responsibility on our young guys in the offseason, and see who can handle it and earn their way into the starting lineup.

I've watched all the Cal games and by buddy who goes to all the games and meets with players says, this is a can't miss sure future HOF caliber player, plus he's is an academic All-American (smart)
