The author definitely understated the compounding effect Haynesworth will have on the rest of the line.

You don't have to be very good to get 8 sacks playing next to Albert Haynesworth. He'll impact the pass rush more than Orakpo will. If Orakpo brings just Andre Carter type skills, he'll get home 10+ times.

Agreed. I think Orakpo at the very least will have 8 sacks this year. If he plays to his talent level as a rookie he can hit double digit sacks and become DROY.

This article is ridiculous. We had a good offseason, but all of the signings don't mean anything until we play on the field.

Way too many people are caught up in all these offseason power polls, winners and losers, etc etc.

Who gives a rat's ass what Fox thinks of us on June 1st? I know we're desperate for NFL stuff to talk about, but it's a lot of wasted energy to get frustrated over this kind of crap.

I dont think people like myself are caught up in offseason rankings. I think its a great way to kill the dead time on this board til the start of training camp/preseason. I like the rankings more for the different discussions that can be had about the Redskins and other teams on this board during the next couple months.

I honestly dont care what Fox or any source thinks per say. I think its a time killer to talk about different teams and how they stack up for this upcoming season or how certain moves in the offseason will work out in different posters opinions.

That's exactly how I think about it. It's ridiculous to read this when you know most of the writers hate the us. Who gives a damn! Once the season starts then we can determine who had the best offseason, but right now you can't. What if (God forbid)Haynesworth got hurt the first snap of training camp and was out for the year? All of the offseason magizine poll stuff wouldn't mean crap. Too many people think football is played on paper, Internet, etc.
