i think its 2000 all over again as far as the spending is concerned, but i believe that we are getting some great young talent. i do think the players will make a great impact that weve signed, im just worried about future cap constraints.

Keep it up Danny Boy! Keep it up! Next on the menu, defensive end.

good i guess... i'll have to see R'El's stats at the end of the year though. i think lloyd will show up (and hope his "issues" stay away). R'El may become a vastly overpaid kick returner, but we'll see.

also, we don't have numbers on fauria, know who or how much on a DE or have the numbers on adam yet (who i didn't think was a real need for his cost, but GW apparently did).

I AM happy that everyone targetted has been 27 and under (lloyd at 24 is a coup talent wise if he can learn to catch a bit more consistantly and keep his mouth closed).

Great start. If we can address DE and CB through either the draft or free agency yet, I'll be a truly happy camper.

I'm reserving my opinion until the season starts - let's say five games. But on paper, who can argue with these moves. This certainly catapaults as Super Bowl contender.

The only thing is while you can replace players and bodies, chemistry goes a long, long way to winning titles. I hope making these moves won't tamper with the chemistry too much. And furthermore, I hope the Skins can stay hungry going into to /06.

I love most of the moves. Get a LB and DE along with a back up QB. Trade Ramsey for a fair pick or picks and then get depth in the draft! What a off season!

I think they're "good" moves. Neither Randle El nor Lloyd have ever even sniffed a 1000 yard season. But they are young and have upside. The amount of signing bonus getting paid to these guys worries me a bit. They need to pan out. I feel good about Randle El because he's a solid guy, but Lloyd's attitude worries me a bit. Hopefully Gibbs applies his magic touch and keeps him from causing problems.

I like Archuleta and Fauria is a good signing as an in-line blocker.

personally i think lloyd will be the one who works out. its good to get these young guys around gibbs early. if anything weve shown with our personnel moves last year that we dont put up with crap.

I think we have made good moves that suit our needs but I am still concerned about which players we are going to have to release to be under the cap. The most important thing is resigning the players on last year's team that made a big impact.

I think that even if the players we've gotten play like they have in the past (with no improvement), we've upgraded the team. If they get better, the team will be much improved!

Out of all the pickups, I think RE is the most intrigueing. He seems to be a very good football player (not WR, KR, RB, QB), but a football player. It think its good to have guys (Sean Taylor, Mike Sellers, Cooley) like that on the team. I love his versatility.

I think that Lloyd will be a very good pickup. He's only 6', but man can he leap! I definitely don't mind giving up a 3rd and a 4th for him, either.

Archuleta is one that I'm kind of mixed on. I don't really know much about him, but never really thought that Ryan Clark was the solution at safety anyway. 25 always seemed like a good guy, and I always hate to see those kind of guys go, but if AA comes through and really helps the team, I doubt any of us will be saying, 'man, i wish ryan clark was out there playing - he was always such a nice guy'.

One of my biggest concerns at this point is OL depth. We need some.

another thing that might be important is signing our rookies!

A trade or two and we will not have any picks in the draft to needed money!
