ok you are on

I would say, we had a VERY GOOD off-season! No major splash, for a change. Just adressed EXACTLY the areas of most concern.

I also, think we are going into 07 in really GOOD shape!

Yea but are they a bunch of cowgirl fans...? What forum are we speaking of?

I liked what the Skins did this offseason but was it the best in the entire league? I don't think so, but then again the ultimate judgement can only be made after this season is over and done and the results speak for themselves.

On paper I like what the Patriots did.

I got banned off of the steelers one. But the Redskins are allergic to band wagon riders

I think the offseason was a productive one around Redskin Park. Certainly they addressed the needs in the defensive backfield and we have good depth at the RB position which we all know is critical in a Gibbs team.

We shall find out in about 75-80 days my friends!

Hail!

Who had the best offseason will be determined when the wins and losses are added up. Every year on paper, we are offseason champs, but unfortunately for us, paper does not win games. All offseason moves must play out on the field, and I'll reserve judgement until such time.

I do however, admire the origional poster's optimism despite the fact I felt we should have done more to boost the DL. Maybe we will play well enough overall to overcome that deficiency, and the failure to address will not be a hinderance.

Who has the oline depth we have? Dare I say it, we actually have some QB depth. The only place I see any depth issues is DE and DT, but we still have 3 quality DE's and we have only have two quality DT's. We have some other DT's Salavea and Montgomery that could provide quality depth and a few DE's that may provide some in Demetric Evans and this guy Hickman.

I honestly do not see a hole on this team at all. Our starting 22, is as good as anyones in the entire NFL.

We have the coaches and their systems in place. This is going to be our year. We are going to wear teams down with Portis & Betts, beat them over the top with Moss and in the middle with Cooley.

We are going to stuff the run with Fletcher, stop the pass with a healthy Springs, Rogers, and Taylor and showdow any playmaker with Landry. As well as blitz from every direction imagible.

Plus everyone is sleeping on us. Am I the only one who sees this? Why don't we start looking at the good of this team instead of nitpicking?

So how are we going to rush the passer? We were last in sacks last year. This is going to be a problem. GW is going to try and live by the blitz. It may work some weeks but at some point you have to get pressure with your lineman. The offense may have to carry us.

I firmly beleive that Cleveland had the best offseason...they set themselves up for a great future. Sure they may only be 7-9 or 8-8 at best this year, but they will be very tough to beat in a few years.

Jamaican'Skin · 06-13-2007, 09:54 PM

We didn't have the best offseason, but we had a real good one. We were able to address needs without overpaying anyone. We have pretty much the same team as last year. We've gained London Fletcher who is already familiar with the system and can be a great leader. We have Laron Landry, Fred Smoot, David Macklin and J. Butler in the defensive backfield.

When the Skins make a big offensive splash, its a problem, and when they don't its a problem. They're never going to be able to please everybody, but to me what was done this offseason is what best improves team chemistry thereby improving the team
