With all this talent and experience we have on the Dline, there's only one thing missing....Udeze!!! Just imagine him coming off the end with that raw speed and strength. Then imagine Lavar coming from the other side...this is what all redskin fans have been waiting/dreaming of for years. I say trade down and pick up a second round pick...then draft udeze, and with that second round pick...Im sure JoeG. will find a gem. HAIL REDSKINS!!!!!

I like that idea, giacomo. Trade down, get Udeze and another quality player. I like Taylor and Winslow, but this is better for the team.

PS Coleman is gone. Look for blue-collar and rookies to fill the d-line.

Has anyone considered a good pass recieving Tightend? How many did Rasby catch last year?

Here are Rasby's numbers (catches/yards/ave/TDs):

1994 Pittsburgh Steelers 0 0 0.0 0
1995 Carolina Panthers 5 47 9.4 0
1996 Carolina Panthers 0 0 0.0 0
1997 Carolina Panthers 1 1 1.0 0
1998 Detroit Lions 15 119 7.9 1
1999 Detroit Lions 3 19 6.3 1
2000 Detroit Lions 10 78 7.8 1
2001 Washington Redskins 10 128 12.8 2
2002 Washington Redskins 9 85 9.4 0
2003 New Orleans Saints 6 55 9.2 0

Based on these numbers... I wouldn't consider him a pass receiving TE at all. Don't understand what the holdup signing him is...these aren't exactly Tony Gonzalez numbers and Danny isn't famous for lowballing players (ha!). I hope he's not asking for a ton of cash.

For comparison's sake... here are Chamberlain's numbers:

1995 Denver Broncos 1 11 11.0 0
1996 Denver Broncos 12 129 10.8 0
1997 Denver Broncos 2 18 9.0 0
1998 Denver Broncos 3 35 11.7 0
1999 Denver Broncos 32 488 15.3 2
2000 Denver Broncos 22 283 12.9 1
2001 Minnesota Vikings 57 666 11.7 3
2002 Minnesota Vikings 34 389 11.4 0
2003 Washington Redskins 4 29 7.3 0

I unlike Dan Synder like the consider the future when making moves, not just shit i want to win next season. For this reason I would take Sean Tayler, the guy is a special unique player. Even though we def. need d-linemen.

[skins009]

Rasby isn't a pass catching tighend, he's a blocking tightend. Which means his number of catches really doesn't mean much. There are a couple of teams interested in him, so thas the hold up. One guy that would be perfect for us is Jason Peters from Georgia. HE's the 320 pound tight end, that we have mentioned before. But unfortunantly he'll never make it to the 5th round. We could have had him with our 3rd round pick, but we gave that away for the senior citizen quaterback.

Hey now, at least the team gets a discount when they go out to eat, after Bruce left we were afraid of losing that!

Ah my friend you do err, If udeze is the good's I would pass up taylor to get him, but I would rush lavar from the same side as udeze now that would be very difficult to defend.

i really do'nt think it matters who we do or do not get in the draft.why?because gibbs and his coaching staff always get the best out of the players they have.if gibbs says he can win with vets as opposed to rookies,he can.

I honestly think if Spurrier had the assistants Gibbs had our Defense would have been in the top 15 and we would have been in the hunt for the playoffs. I think our D Line did look pathetic, but the rest of our defense which had tons of talent didn't exactly look great. I think Daniels/Wynn/Noble/Griffin will give us a lot more push than last year. I still see us signing a few not-so-big named D line people.

[RedskinPete]

His leg was hurt bad last year and many I have read said it takes two years to really come back from something like this! So I really don't see him in the mix! That is why we will need someone else in the middle and the out side. With only one pick left trade down looks like it. To get more picks or wait and hope for more cuts in June! Still like Winslow!!!

You could well be right....a few experienced NFL coaches telling SS to run a decent pro system instead of his Glum and Gun, or whatever it was called....

[Daseal]

I'm not sure about Noble, but last I heard he was healing faster than expected. He might not be a 4 quarter guy, but I think we can get him in on certain situations.

Matty, Spurrier didn't have near the pull Gibbs has. Gibbs is a proven coach who is very good at convincing people. That's one of his strong points. Hypothetically speaking I think if Spurrier had the assistants Gibbs has the team would have been much improved. Spurriers offense didn't do THAT bad. When we actually had the ball, some games they had our number completely, but a lot of games we scored enough points to win but our defense just did nothing.
