If this is a good and solid team, why is it 5-10 in the last week of December? Good and solid teams at this time of year are 9-6 or maybe even 10-5. The reason the Redskins are 5-10 is that they are not nearly as good as the press makes them out to be AND they have no meaningful depth - except at linebacker.

Orlando Pace WAS asking for a deal that would total $85M and he wanted $28M as a signing bonus. However, he changed his agent since he signed his franchise player contract with St. Louis last year so no one knows what the asking price will be this year. He used to have the Postons as his agents but has now signed with someone else - JImmy Sexton?

Here's a flash for people: Orlando Pace is better than any OL the Redskins have had in the last decade and maybe in their entire history - including the "sainted Hogs". If he can be had for a REASONABLE number, you have to think about him. He will be in the Hall of Fame.
