That kind of cape short fall is no small matter! A new WR or what ever seems way off!!! We will be lucky to keep what we have on the team now.

"Some in the NFL believe Redskins owner Daniel Snyder is particularly torn by the collective bargaining impasse. Snyder needs a new labor deal to ease the team's cap issues in 2006. But he also has spent heavily on free agents in the past and, if an extension is not completed, there would be no salary cap in 2007. That would allow him to spend as lavishly as he likes on new players."

It's kind of a "win-win" situation because if an extension is not reached there won't be a cap in 2007...We just have to cut who we can cut, sign who we can sign, and trade who we can trade. It seems devastating but I think we'll be alright...If not; We will have our fun in 2007.

Considering that an extension isn’t reach, I suggest we trade up in the draft to acquire a WR using next year’s picks. Without a cap, who needs the draft when we can sign proven players where money isn't an issue?
