The Smurfs are back!
I'm so happy to have added David Patten! I was scared with the Redskins recent past that we'd pick up Burress. Patten is a proven WR where as Burress is about as reliable as Gardner in the catch department while being quite speedy on the flats. Burress like Gardner seems to fail in properly excuting his routes consistantly. Patten can fly and will catch most balls. And what is the stat last season? 37 1st downs on 44 catches? Uh noone on our team can top that. Burress? Hell no. Patten is good person and a proven great player who we didn't have to spend ridiculous money for. He's got 3 rings, same as Gibbs. Although Patten never lost a SB. Great signing. Rabach great signing. Please sign Smoot. I just hope that Fred agrees to somewhere close to 10 million then add incentives on to make it a possible 14 million and stays in DC. I'm not surprised by Pierce going to NYG cause we couldn't afford to pay him what they did, however they paid to have the leader of Williams defense. Division rival defensive team leader... If the guy was in a wheelchair it might be advantageous to sign him! Reguardless of what Pierce spills to the enemy (by the way Pierce coulda been a Redskin for life with good money) we can still blitz Manning.
