I think Williams could be a good idea. I also want to see his numbers at the combine. If he gets any slower, ditch that idea! He has good hands though. I wouldn't be suprised to see us go after Cal's QB either if Gibbs isn't happy with Ramsey. That being said, we'll prolly have to drop our next 3 to get him!

It's no secret we need playmakers on offense. Gardner is gone after next year and unless he turns in to Art Monk Jr. overnight we should gladly let him walk.

I think they need to look at WR's and DE's. I still think they need a speed rusher on the end. Even though the schemes are working this year, they might not next year

I don't want to even think this really but if we lose Smoot (which I pray doesn't happen) then should we be looking at a guy like Antrell Rolle if he's around? Or should we look for secondary help via trade or free agency or later in the draft even?

Great Question! Ade Jimoh isnt the awnser if thats the case, although he will always be a warpath favorite. Walt Harris, maybe. I think if we draft a guy like Rolle, were gonna still be paying pretty high price. I'd rather have the proven commodity in Smoot, even if it is more expensive. Besides, we really cant afford to lose the locker room type leadership and personality that Smoot brings. I really hope we resign that guy and fast.

Daseal, I doubt we go after a QB early I don't see a rookie QB coming in and throwing the hitch pass, and 2yd out's better than Ramsey , I have the same concern about William's as you but William's no matter how light he comes in is not going to out run DB's, the evaluation will have to be is this guy athletic enough to use his size to just dominate the defender's? I would have to see some more game film on him to be sure he know's how to use his body when going after a ball, I know he has hand's like fly paper something tell's me he is going to be a very unique player if used properly he could be a great jump ball reciever a lot like M. Erving but he's much bigger than Erving if he is capable of getting seperation off the line or out of his break's the guy will be unstopable, straight line speed is overated for reciever's quickness stopping, and starting, is more important that's where you seperate, perhap's a better comparison to William's is our own McCant's only William's is bigger, stronger, and better. Gardner should be traded or released he's not a guy who's going to help this team no sense in keeping him around.

I believe our first priority is center whether we address that need in the draft or FA, I think we should cut bait with Samuel's as well he's just not worth the money, offensive line is the key we have to eveluate it and see who's not getting the job done and fix it, then a big short yardage back, Portis has shown he want's no part of short yardage, WR sound's great but it really doesn't matter if were not going to throw downfield, I would't go out of my way for the defense early in the draft were fine Lavar will be back to help rush the QB next year, offensive line is the key.

I also like this kid Clemon's at LB I think we are going to see his role expand as time goes on, he has serious speed and look's very aggresive, I believe William's will start to find more way's to get him into the game.

smootsmack:

If the Skins don't re-sign Fred Smoot you have a double problem. You'll have to figure out how the team will replace him at DB AND you'll need a new screen name. Too bad Ade Jimoh Fan Club is already taken...

[illdefined]

we'll know exactly how much Joe Gibbs brings to the team by how many free agents come back, and how much they come back for.

Smoot, Samuels, Pierce...
