I believe if Wade does not get a large contract from some other team I think it would be in the Redskins best interest to sign him as a backup tackle and get the guard from elsewhere - the main reason being is both Samuels and Jansen are getting up in years and both have had some injuries and this would provide solid depth in case one of them goes down - is it realistic to expect both Samuels and Jansen to stay healthy the entire year for 2 seasons in a row?

The team is in the process of preparing a contract for Todd Wade presently. The numbers in that contract will give us a pretty good idea as to what his assignment with the team will be. The initial figures beindg discussed far excede those of a back-up RT. We should know more in the next couple days........Stay Tuned
