some things, yes. your response was pretty measured but i wanted to point out that coff's interpretation of your comment seems to be that the skins could do what they always do. My fear is thats exactly what the skins always used to do under Cerrato. I dont want to go back there. This team was 10-6 playing with a rookie RGIII who was injured a good portion of the season, no fred davis and garcon for huge chunks of time, and a defense that was down 4 ke starters the entire season.

If everyone comes back healthy - and our younger players now have an extra year of experience, i think we'll be alot better in 2013 if we just keep our core guys together. I dont think we have a NEED to get any big money free agents. Certainly not at the expense of future seasons. Id rather be conservative this offseason and dont do anything crazy that puts future seasons at risk. we'll have plenty of money to spend in 2014.

Who will be available in 2014. That has to be taken into account. It's easy to say we can wait a year but are those players available going to be fits?

I agree. Plus we get Davis, Carriker and Rak back. Just need to add a player in the secondary and have another productive draft

However, we had low expectations last year. Next year this team will be expected to make the playoffs. With or w/out RG3. How will be play with those expectations?
