This year was an anomaly with how many players we kept, and don't think that the FO didn't play the woe is us, and we can't do anything because our cap hands are tied card to the hilt. Some of the players who stayed this year will hit the road next year. Even with our improved cap position.
- We don't even know that Griffin will be able to stay healthy for a full season, let alone 3, and that is indeed a lynchpin to any SB run we may find ourselves in.
But still rather be erring on the side of positive thoughts then negative, I guess.

I had typed up a real nice response to this but when I hit submit I wasn't logged in anymore and lost all I typed. BS. So I'll just quickly sumerize, the Dolphins made 3 straight super bowls in the 70's, the Bills made 4 straight super bowls in the 90's. It is possible for the Skins to win 3 straight. Griffin is a smarter player now and should stay healthy because of it, hopefully. As long as we keep our core nucleus of players intact, and keep drafting well like we have been, our roster should remain talented enough to compete year in and year out for a super bowl.

Orakpo expects to be ready for OTAs, has not discussed contract
“I would love to be a Redskin for life,” Orakpo said. “That’s my goal. Obviously when I talk to Mr. [owner Daniel] Snyder, he says that’s his goal. Coach [Mike] Shanahan says that’s his goal. As long as both sides take care of our business, that shouldn’t be a problem.”
