I think in Carriker and Cofield, we'll have two solid DEs for the defense. Cullen Jenkins could probably play better NT than Cofield, an given his experience on a 3-4 defense would be helpful.

Directly or indirectly, everything is related to Haynesworth one way or another. He'll be the elephant in the room yet again. He's the highest paid guy on the team and has been the most disappointing by far. Had Haynesworth lived up to his contract the past two years, I'm not sure the Redskins invest this much up front. It seems to me, the Redskins are planning on life without Mr. Haynesworth's services in the event he's his usual honory self.
