The discussion about Philly, NE and Denver building solid teams through the draft is fine if that's all you're interested in. I'm interested in watching the Redskins play longer than 30 other teams in the NFL. As is evident by his playoff record, Gibbs builds powerhouse teams that play deep into the playoffs.

i agree, and i might add that in fa you pretty much know what you are getting when you pick up a player, in the draft almost every player is a crap shoot. when you go get vet player from another team he already has gotten his feet wet in the nfl and knows how to conduct himself in a professional manner.this is not always true but i feel a little more comfortable with a vet as opposed to a class of rookies who are still learning how to play and may be a little immature.
