Re: Redskins Offseason Thread

How about Kouandjio balling out for a dream scenario?

Winning the lottery is more likely.

I would take Evans for a year and draft a guard next year.

Yeah... but I was looking for a plausible dream scenario

Yeah but what’s more plausible, Kouandjio putting it together or an UDFA winning the job?

I think my first post may have been misleading, let's put it this way:

The way I see it, we know what we're getting with Arie, a decent player who can pass protect rather consistently but won't open lanes in the run game.
With the UDFA, we don't know yet what he can do, so while he could be cut a week into training camp, we're still allowed to hope he would be an upgrade... that's why called it dream scenario.

We should not be in this position.
We did not address our biggest or second biggest need in our starting line up for a second year in a row. Who in our fucking awesome FO thought Kouandijo or a UDFA starting at LG is conducive to winning?
Why do we we cheap out at Oline but have millions for an oft injured 3rd string WR or an old slot CB?

I understand your frustration, but i think you’re overreacting a bit.

- looking over our roster, left guard is the only position where we do not have a clear starter and backup. That’s far better than where we have been in a long long time

- if theres any position to have questions about, Id say offensive guard is one of, if not the “best” one. Offensive guard is the most easily replaceable position in the NFL. We have 2 other offensive lineman who are arguably top 3 in their position and a 3rd (moses) who is near pro-bowl level. Even without the left guard situation resolved, i think most of the other teams in the league would swap o-lines with us in a heartbeat.

- the start of the season is 4 months away. Almost every year, we pick up a surprise cut late in the offseason who becomes a key contributor to this team. Really good guards are going to get cut by other teams in Salary-cap moves.

- even jf we don’t find an adequate guard among the guys on the roster, and even if we don’t sign a veteran later in the offseason, Shawn Lauvao is out there. He’s be more than serviceable as our “last resort” option.

In the end, Its simply too early to panic about the guard spot. If we’re in the same spot in mid July, then I’ll get concerned.

I think it is completely realistic he will be better than last year. His physical peak should start meeting the mental part during this part of his career.
