56Fanatic -- Most people are willing to offer both players you mentioned a very small salary. It's worth the risk for the possible reward of getting a great player. We're not asking anyone to break the bank (IE the over-the-hill crew Snyder first brought in) but we are willing to take a chance if they're cheap.

Just like a few of us wanted to bring in Koren Robinson, he's doing pretty damn good out in MN right now.

It's all about finding those gems that fall through the cracks. Like Irish mentioned, its not like we can keep draft picks around.

Most people, meaning NFL teams? Yeah, they can offer minimul amounts, my point is he isn't going to come cheap. 1 to 2 million, are you kidding, he is getting between 5 and 8 right now. He doesn't need to accept less because he will get paid, but a team with cap room, and a team that needs one more good receiver to get over the top. Koren Robinson is a time bomb, he is going to hold out or want another deal when he feels he deserves it. Then it will be the same ole story. All of the things people are saying, lead to the front office. We cant keep draft picks around because they want to go somewhere and win. Why stay here and suffer for a .500 ball club. Others will go for money. If our organiztion wasn't in such disarray, champ would still be here, smoot too. Champ left because we couldn't keep the same staff and players here to win. Its one of the things he says all the time. And the fact that the organization he went to had some class, which I believe Denver does. Washington, well mainly Dan has not really shown much class to players or people within the organization.

make no mistake, he left for money. He wanted $68mill and we didn't want to pay him more than $50mill. Those pot-shots are just petty sh*t cause we rejected him. During the contract talks all he said was how much he liked it here and how he wanted to be a redskin for life and all that other crap pro athletes say.

If Smoot did indeed leave the Redskins for the Vikings because this organization has issues...then that's a sad commentary on the state of the Redskins
