He does have balls thrown to Royal but only because we have no other options after Patten got hurt. I think ideally he wants passes thrown at WRs. Cooley has clearly warmed Gibbs to the idea of of getting the ball to other places though and he has shown the ability to adapt. I think we'll see some depth building at the WR spot so that we can weather injuries there better. He'll clearly be looking for depth on the o-line and certainly will prioritize a quality pass rushing de. I don't see this being a big off-season though. It wasn't a big off-season last year and we finished 6-10. I think he is happy with most of the talent.

I agree FRPLG, there will be no wholesale changes. I think he likes the core group of guys, and Gibbs has repeatedly said he wants these guys to become Redskins for their careers, if possible. So I think along with working within the cap rules, he's going to do his best to retain most of the starters we've already seen.

An addition here and there, and some depth is the recipe for the offseason.
