ESPN: Archuleta: 'I don't like getting lied to'

[724Skinsfan]

I think the Redskins felt desperate enough at the time to sign AA since it wasn't clear that ST would be on the field. There were not a lot of available hard-hitting FA Safeties. AA's agent knew this and I'm sure exploited this for his client's financial benefit. The Redskins organization knew they were overpaying but I guess couldn't see an alternative plan. They needed someone that could knock someone's head off, again IF ST was not going to play. Looking back was it a foolish move? Yes. At the time was it a totally unreasonable move? Not really.

What AA is saying now is his side of the story not the absolute true side of the story. AA has a responsibility as a professional to work on his areas that are in need of improvement. Does anyone here think he came up to one of his coaches and asked for help and they said "f*ck off". Doubtful. More likely he's used to being pampered and having people come to him not the other way around. GW doesn't treat any player better than another and some of these guys can't handle not being #1.
