People have become so accustomed this time of year to the Redskins signing FA's, it's something they seemingly can't get over. The team will be rebuilt in increments not in the first few days of free agency. It's so good to witness the approach now being taken.

Mass amounts of Redskins fans are having to kick their "Vinny Crack" addictions this year of 2010 free agency.

Re: Is the new Redskins Front Office Gun Shy?

Why do you say they are gunshy, just because they didn't take any "sexy" picks? Most of the FAs taken are 30 and older. The FO obviously is thinking long term ie youth mixed in with some serviceable FAs like Hicks. We might yet land a good LT, G, or S via free agency.

Re: Is the new Redskins Front Office Gun Shy?

Im blown away by the criticism of the FO already. Im floored.

We just broke up the tandem of Vinny and Danny Boy that drove the Skins to a rock bottom with their general plan of F the draft, lets try and buy a championship and installed class act and well respected GM Bruce Allen and a coach who has won 2 superbowls. And in the first week of free agency their going to be called gun shy b/c we havent done the typical overpay for shitty play on the field. The funny thing is less than a handful of team have made any type of "splash" in free agency, so we are acting as normal, think before you act, have a plan, franchise. We should be sooooo excited about this.
