Hall to be replaced?

yes, and a LOT of people here saw the need, as did the entire 980 staff, but nothing was done. longwell was available and used to bad weather too. punter you only had the option to overpay zastidul (sp?) or draft/sign plackemeier, koch, torp, or weatherford (i voted for koch - he's played alright for the raven's so far).

again, like CB/DB/LB and OL depth, plenty of people questioned the inaction.

it's too late now though. we've got what we've got. todd peterson and novak are left overs btw. don't expect too much better from either of them - it's not like they were able to find a real job.

Too late for the Redskins, but not too late for their fans to bitch about!

How about this one? Going after Randle El AND Brandon Lloyd? Why not just Randle El and David Patten? Thrash can still play in 4 wideout sets.

we hit on that in the offseason too. i actually think i liked lloyd better at the time, but i didn't do enough homework on that, cause he's a bit DOA. El can be more productive than what you saw in pittsburg though, i'm sure of that now.

I thought we'd just get one and then a depth guy (like reche caldwell or some such) to round out the bunch.

it's a killer to miss on big money guys though. draft busts (outside the top 5) aren't expensive mistakes. yeah you miss on adding talent, but you're only out a draft pick.
