Re: we still need a guard
i understand your concern and it is a valid one i believe the skins r just takin their time to see whats available we have 48 more days till the draft where i believe well see the skins wheel and deal quite a bit and find us a serviceable if not great OG.....im kinda glad were not just jumpin in with both feet right away feels kinda nice....

Re: we still need a guard
lol.. SC, did u even watch during the reg season? I believe betts had some of the biggest holes i've seen, i truly believe if portis was the 1 back there u would be talking a completely different story. But i completely disagree with you saying our line is not in the top 10.

Re: we still need a guard
Yea we do. It would be nice to bring in Edwin Mulitalo, see what kinda cash he's lookin for.
I'm suprised he has dragged into REDSKINS PARK after being crapped on by the DIRTY BIRDS. This would be a great move for the right cash.

Re: we still need a guard
Because is the easiest position to replace in football. Why bring in someone now and overpay when we can wait until guys are a little more desperate and get a better value? The difference between a guywe sign now for a good amount of money and someone we sign in 2 or 3 weeks will be minimal and the guwe sign in 2 or 3 weeks will come at half the price. That is if we don't decide to draft someone who'll be even cheaper.
I swear. We finally show some restraint in FA and half the people want to know why. We spend a lot in FA dn the other half want to know why. I guess there really is no pleasing everyone. |

FRPLG - I am of the camp that thought the FO has been overpaying for the last couple of years and it is refreshing to see the FO being quiet this offseason (although I believe the main reason we didn't overspend was because the cap was limiting us more than other teams). I think the Skins are waiting until the draft to see what to do at Guard - whether they draft one or pick up one in free agency. To me I think some of the best pickups are the ones you make when players run out of options and sign a contract to avoid unemployment. A perfect example is what happened to the Deshawn Stevenson with the Wizards in the NBA. Deshawn got a little greedy and wanted a huge contract - the Magic declined and Ernie Grunfeld (a smart GM) let go of bricklauyer Jared Jeffries and got Stevenson on the cheap because there weren't many places that Stenvenson could get a contract from. Maybe the guard from the Ravens asked a little too much from the Redskins and someone in the FO said lets wait and either he will drop his price or we get someone in the draft - in my book this was a smart move in that he is coming off a major injury. |

Re: we still need a guard
I'm glad they didn't drop 50 million on a guard in the first 3 days of free agency. I'm so sick of this whirlwind that takes place around the start of free agency. The fact is servicable linemen can be found deep in the NFL Draft. I don't have stats on who was drafted where, but I'm pretty sure there are plenty of starters who can be had in the later rounds. Guards aren't that hard to come by. I say draft a young one and sign a vet to low money and see how that works out. Salaries are starting to get astronomical for everyone. 49 mil to Dock? Come on. I don't want to see the Skins spend that kinda mone on Dock or Mulitalo or any other guard, for that matter.
