^^^^ Dumping the koolaid on the ground doesn't help anyone... Least if we want to drink it, without you, it'd still be there.

Re: Redskins free agent signings thread part II

I give them a B+/A-. They've treated free agency just like it should be for a 3 win team. Hatcher, Roberts, Jackson and Porter are all very solid moves. All of those guys make the team better. The linemen from Cleveland and the LB from Houston are kind of wait and see, didn't really like the Clark signing. The rest of them were for depth and teams. What I like is they're not trying to build a team with free agents, but make solid improvements. The Jackson deal was icing on the cake. So far so good.

Re: Redskins free agent signings thread part II

Outside of Garcon who did we really have at WR??

Jackson filled a huge need and gives us a legit 1-2 combo. Add in a 3rd in Roberts and this WR group went from blah to having the potential to be one of the better groups in the league.

Right on. In fact, we were worse than "blah." There's a reason why Garcon had more targets than anyone else in the league: there was no one else to throw the ball to.

How much more effective will it make our TE group? Slipping a back out of the backfield?
We became a team who cannot have all the weapons covered. If we can get an Oline guy or two, we may have something.......

Didn't we talk about you making sense? Don't you remember how dangerous that is?

Re: Redskins free agent signings thread part II

The only thing I will say is that if we could have gotten T.J. Ward for 4.5 million dollars for 5 years then great but I am not going to knock what we have accomplished this off-season.

Yeah, pretty sure That Guy meant Denver.

Still annoys and confuses me that we overpayed for Lavuao, but didn't use that money on Verner, Ward, or someone else actually worth a price tag in that neighborhood. Not sure what Allen/Gruden was thinking there. I mean, it seems like we could've drafted Cyril Richardson in the 3rd round and got pretty much the same production for quite a bit less money. I sure as heck hope Lavuao proves to be worth that cap space; perhaps with Trent and Kory surrounding him, he'll do better than he did in Cleveland.
