Marcus Washington gone?

Hey, check this out. This is from Yahoo Sports about the needs of the NFC. Look at the write up on our LB corp. This has to be BS. Are there plans for the FO to get rid of Marcus W? I thought he was the one of the only bright spots on a lackluster defense. He is probably our most skilled defensive player why would we get rid of him?

Please tell me this is inaccurate.


----YAHOO NEWS-----
Washington Redskins
Team needs:
DE, CB, OG, S, LB
Overall pick/round: 6 (1), 143 (5), 179 (6), 205 (6), 216 (7)
DE: They need a pass rusher, but they have to decide if it's worth bypassing a chance to take Gaines Adams or Jamaal Anderson to trade down for an extra choice. If the Redskins were to deal down, they could set their sights on someone like Jarvis Moss or Charles Johnson, and then still have the ability to add a defensive back from the extra pick for dropping down.
CB: Shawn Springs could be a cap casualty come June 1 and Carlos Rogers needs to rebound from an average campaign last season. They have only one choice on the first day, so unless that changes, they will be finding more of a raw-tools prospect in the later rounds.
OG: They lost Derrick Dockery via free agency and have failed to a long-term replacement on the open market, although they feel veteran Todd Wade might be able to fill the void for next season. It would be a good investment to spend a late-round choice on a guy like Robert Turner, Aaron Brant or Corey Davis.
S: The Redskins signed and then misused Adam Archuleta, who was recently dealt to the Bears. They now have an array of veterans on the roster that they will try to pair with All-Pro Sean Taylor. Second-year pro Reed Doughty may have the best upside, but either way, this position needs an upgrade in quality depth.
LB: Even with the signing of London Fletcher and the expected development of Rocky McIntosh, this is still an area of concern. However, they have been the market-setters in terms of trying to acquire Bears All-Pro OLB Lance Briggs. There is a chance that veteran outside linebacker Marcus Washington could be a June 1 cap casualty. If not, he is likely to be jettisoned after next season, so finding a mid-to-late round prospect is a smart move.
