Jackson is a head case who just wants to get paid, Colston had two major knee surgeries, Nicks is a good guard but he might go back and even then isn't better than Evans and he wants to get paid more than him, Finnegan has had one pro bowl year but he is famous for fighting people and he gets beat, Carr is a good corner but market will make him super overpaid, Grubbs is a good guard but how much is he worth?

Winston is the one guy I do like from his highlights and what i've seen. I would go after him for the right price. I would sign young players than can add depth.

Also see Adam Archuleta, Bruce Smith, Albert Haynesworth, Randel El, Lloyd.
We don't have a great track record with free agents.

Great teams stay away from the huge names and build through the draft, see Giants, Packers, Steelers, Patriots, Ravens. All the best players for those teams were drafted. But the new management for the redskins seems to understand that, which means we might have a bright future if Snyder doesn't interfere

That was A DIFFERENT FRONT OFFICE, DIFFERENT GM, AND A DIFFERENT TEAM!!!

Why do people keep acting like freaking Vinny is still running the show here.

Sometimes it's easier to pile on than back your team up even when they did nothing wrong.

Nah, the other owners need to get over their jealousy and stop crying to The Rog when we don't agree with their collusion.

I saw a report that without the restructures we'd be 39mil over the cap. Even being penalized for doing nothing wrong legally, we are in better shape.

The number did seem high to me and it may be fuzzy mathed, but I am fairly positive even with the penalty we are better off. I have a hard time faulting BA in this as he was/is cleaning up VCs mess.

It was in the whirlwind of twitter links I went through on my phone last night, I am not digging it out or know if I could find it again. I went on a couple posts later questioning the complete validity of what I saw myself. Long story short, BA > VC (or most anyone eslse) and we are better of for it including whatever nonsense the owners want to throw the Skins way.
