in a 4-3 defense, you can get by with just about anybody at LB if you have a dominant defensive line and secondary. Here is how i see our FA and draft playing out:
TRADE carlos Rogers for a 2nd round pick.
CUT Washington, Smoot, Taylor, Griff (yes, i think we keep Springs).
I also dont think we will count on McIntosh being a starter next year. This leaves us with the following STARTING NEEDS on defense in 2009:

One thing I would say here is that I really believe that cutting all the veterans you mention would have a negative net impact on the locker room. I am a firm believer that the Redskins do have a solid locker room and veteran leadership. I think there are some clear cases of performance/compensation issues with the veterans you mention however I'd be wary of doing a complete hack job.
