If Orakpo doesn't have a rebound year in 2013 and the defense continues to struggle, you can either try to build around your best players, or point out that they want more money that you're willing to play and move on without them. Doing the latter gets you the Redskins current secondary. It almost cost the Redskins London Fletcher. It could cost them Orakpo.

So to summarize you're suggesting we should have overpaid for Rogers and Landry. Regardless of what course of action the Shanahans decided on they would have been wrong. And you're also trying to tie Brian Orakpo into the same argument by comparing him to two underwhelming performing secondary players.
And no, we were never in danger of losing Fletcher...

I am not suggesting that we should have overpaid for anyone, and in particular not the players we did overpay who are contributing to a defense near the bottom of the league.

It's nice to see someone step back and take a look at the big picture.

Major props to Crawford for his comments after the game. Not to name anyone but there are vets on this team who consistently pass the buck after losses. I really like Crawford. He's going to be a good one someday.

I agree. We need a coach who's going to bring in Gaffney and Plaxico. Super Bowl bound when they do!!

Kyle has proved time and time again, he cannot both run a regular offense and consistently move the ball and put up points. RG3 is the only reason we have scored more than 20 points/ game so far.

Those two guys are too fast and RGIII would just under throw them and get picked off.

Yes, our focus should be on why does Kyle still suck? Not our secondary, the injuries, or anything else. Priorities, people.

Houston Texans?


You do realize having the correct personnel to run your offense matters tremendously. So now RGIII is calling all those plays and forming up the game plan against opposing defenses. Good to know.

U guys do know that we have the 2nd ranked offense in the NFL right?? That's big for a team who hasn't had an offense in decades
