Also your team has brought a new way of cap manegemnt to he NFL that has let them bring the player they want each year withou mayor consecuences that also is true.
but in thsi case you have to saparete what he has been doing in FA and the draft because they haven't merge yet if let's say gibbs had traded this year second round pick to the Jets for moss instead of coles then yes there would be a relation. but no the only way to compare and evaluate his draft moves is based only on the draft and hsi draft pics because he has only traded draft pics he hasn't merge the 2 sides of the bussnises get FA/ trades/ draft.
offcourse your FA pics affect what would you do i nthe draft as it does with every other team like Archuleta took a SS need aways from the draft but it doesn't determine the moves you make during the draft.
Like the 1 you did and the reason that I call these type of moves (giving away future high picks) risky or a disaster waiting to happen is because of history look 2 years ago is that easy Bufallo traded with us their low 2nd round a 5th and last year first for our 22 in the first round. How did it tur out? well got JJ, Spears and Ryan (an eventually Bledose because he was released because of JP losman) and Buffalo only got Losman 2 years later JJ , Spears and Bledsoe are starters in our team and Losman is a backup and has been almost been shown the door with a lot of speculation from the Bills that want to trade him.

I think that's where gibbs's approach to the offseason and personnel differs from traditional thinking. I think a lot of personnel evaluators have a tunnel-visioned approach to the draft and free agency (and other personnel-based areas), but it seems that gibbs looks at it from an overall team standpoint. How all of it affects each other. I can't get a hold of your sentence/statement of how fa affects the draft, but doesn't determine the moves you make during the draft. What do you mean by "affects" and "doesn't determine" ? Isn't this a little contradictory ?
I still don't understand how this draft will become a disaster for the redskins. How ? I don't see how it would be the possible end of the redskins as we know it (like a hurricane katrina, that's what I see a disaster as). Of course the draft is a risk, that's why gibbs prefers getting players he is sold on in fa and moving up in the draft to get a guy that they have a good feeling for. In this way, it is less of a risk (of wasting your investment). But to me, this is in no way a risk that would bring disaster to the redskins. A risk that would bring possible disaster to a team would be to sign a player named Terrell Owens. Now that has disaster written all over it.
