We practically have given our draft away the last few years from mostly poor decisions.

Sure there are some fa busts around the league, but other teams busts aren't the highest paid FA's on the market. At least i can't think of any.

I agree 100%. The Skins have way more FA disappointments than surprises. As for giving away draft picks for nothing, I have been saying that for awhile now. Most successful teams (Steelers, Pats) build a foundation and depth through the draft and get a FA to fill a hole and put the team over the top. The Skins retool every year with FAs and draft to plug holes. Its not working. This organization need a complete change in how they build a lasting winning team not just a one year wonder (which they cant do either).
