What about the beloved Snyder?? Does this scenario have a peacefully transistion in ownership??

I saw another thread started regarding should the skins move to DC.

I hope its just not when my thoughts on those matters are examined with hostility but that people can now discuss those safely.

Are you like WP's own T.O.?

On Offense:
1.) Develop the line.
2.) Move Randle El to the slot and develop either Kelly or Thomas to be the number 2 receiver.
3.) More two TE sets, (get Davis on the Field)

On Defense:
1.) Draft or Sign a large run stopping DT that can stop the run and get to the QB.
2.) Let Jason Taylor move between OLB and DE. (Give the guy a break he was brought in during training camp and was injured almost all season. Everyone acts like he is over the hill because he isn't raking up sacks. Who Is????)
3.) Resign Springs for two more seasons at a small number.
4.) Cut Washington

What would you do?

this season:
o Assess wether Chris Wilson or Rob Jackson could be an answer at DE

Off Season:

o Add some WCO coaches or assistants to the staff to help Zorn and Sherman mold their version of the WCO. QB Coach/ WR Coach/ Offensive Assistant

o Get younger and improve the offensive line: i would let Thomas and Jansen go: LT Samuels LG Kendall C-Rabach RG-Rinehart RT-Rookie draft pick also draft a mid-round C/G

o Get younger more explosive *I know this won't happen but: shop Portis for draft picks or shop Betts and Cartwright for draft picks; Draft a 'speed back' 3rd down/PR/KR
o See if you can get a draft pick for Todd Collins; then sign a cheap WCO back-up

o Draft a project(late round) FB

o Ask Jason Taylor to retire and maybe ask Phillip Daniels (depending on the cap hit)

o Draft a DE

o Release Marcus Washington; where's Gatewood again?; Draft a SAM backer

o Release Springs unless he's willing to make his contract more friendly if so release Smoot

o Re-sign Hall hope he gives us the home town discount

o Draft a cornerback project

o Sign a (cheap) journeyman S or draft a project S

[htownskinfan]

Tell Portis to keep his mouth shut,dont air dirty laundry in public
Give Betts more carries
next 3 games I want to run the offense out of the shotgun as much as possible
Bring in Mike vanderget for a tryout
Get Fred Davis on the field,why the hell did we draft him?
Run more trick plays
Incorporate ARE into offense more,either as a passer or Slash type player ala Kordell
Take ARE off punt returns
Try a different blitz scheme,the one baltimore tried on us worked pretty good,ours never do

[Paintrain]

Out-Suisham, Washington, Taylor, Kendall, Jansen, Collins, Thrash

In-Dansby or Vilma, Mike Nugent, drafted DE, DT, OT, return specialist (Justin Miller or Allen Rossum?, Batch

On field personnel moves-Replace ARE and Rock on returns, move Landry full time to SS so he can play near the line, Springs full time to FS, resign Hall, starting WR are Moss, Kelly, ARE in the slot

Off field-Replace Bugel, Danny Smith, Hixon

Springs and full time don't belong in the same sentence. He's not 100%, probably can't play.....forget about it. More like Springs is replaced by Hall.

And Horton and LL are just fine, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

Hire this guy:

Jim Hueber
Title: Assistant Offensive Line Coach
Vikings : Coach Profile

Jim Hueber will look to help the Vikings offense build on their record-setting season on the ground as he enters his 3rd season with the team and his 35th in coaching in 2008

The senior member of the 2008 Vikings coaching staff is Assistant Offensive Line coach Jim Hueber, who enters his 35rd season of coaching and his 3rd in the NFL.

That's funny.

[over the mountain]

im too drunk to taste this chicken.


go skins!!

[tryfuhl]

Everyone talking about a new backup RB/special teamer

what about sproles or morris (seahawks)?

not really sure of their value, but they're quick and have had some good looking games/plays, don't know a lot about them though

[schndr_tdd]

Godd luck to the skins in the final games.As for next year they need to drop Jansen,Washington,Griffin,Randle El,Daniels,Fabini,Rabach,Kendall and Springs for sure.As for Campbell,i dont think he is going to be an elite QB.He holds on to the ball to long,doesnt see the whole field,misses open players.With that said the WR's havent hellped his credibility by dropping passes.But,he does not lead this offense Portis does.The Redskins need a leader at this position or someone that will at least TRY! The OL needs a youth movement,keep Samuels and Thomas and go younger.Lets see what this Brennan kid has.I watched him in college and although everyone says his mechanics are bad,he cant throw long,hes not smart,etc;he TRIES to shoot it out every play.He would be a bigtime spark,and he can throw on the run and excite the team.The Redskins waited to long to bring in youth now they are paying for it.

First of all, I'd like to say "Hail!" since this is my first post. I grew up in D.C. and I've been a Redskins fan for many years.

I feel that the management of the team needs to decide if we're rebuilding or trying to make a playoff run. If we're rebuilding, and I think we should be, then we must stop bringing in older, high-salaried stop-gap players. These type of players are taking up too much salary cap room and some of them are costing us valuable draft picks.

Since I believe that we need to rebuild, I certainly agree with those posters who feel that our top priority needs to be rebuilding both lines for the future. I would start with the offensive line because I believe that a dominant offensive line is the key to building a dynasty.

I would start by paying top dollar for one or two proven, young free agent offensive linemen. For example, I think it would be a good idea to go after both Jordan Gross and Stacy Andrews. If we were to sign Gross to play LT, then Chris Samuels would move to RT. If we were to sign Stacy Andrews, then Andrews would play RT and Chris would stay at LT.

Next, I would do what it takes, moving up as necessary, to get Duke Robinson (6-5, 330) of Oklahoma in the draft. He has greatly impressed me this season and I think that he could start at guard right away.

Regardless of whatever else I might do, I would favor younger players over older players both for roster spots and playing time until we're at the point where we can go deep into the playoffs by adding a couple of key veteran free agents.

[30gut]

o Try and move Todd Collins to the Rams for a draft pick

o Sign Tavaris Jackson as low cost back-up, if the Vikings let him go:
he comes from a WCO scheme and would be a Seneca Wallace type
project for Zorn to mold, except that Jackson has more raw talent

[DirtyLandry]

Cut Betts. His 3.3 ypc and 1 TD are not cutting it. sign Maurice Morris.

Keep Rabach as a back up, Sign Matt Birk.

Sign Albert Haynesworth, no matter what the cost. If Tenn resigns him, then go trade for a DT. Kevin Williams, Vince Wilfork, Tommie Harris, Kris Jenkins...I don't care what you have to give up, go get one. This year has proven that an elite DT can improve your entire D. (See Stroud in Buffalo or Jenkins in NY)

Draft O line and defense.

Goodbye Springs, Doughty, Suissham, Plackemeier, Betts, Thrash, Jansen and Golston.

Collins retires, promote Hawaii five-0 to #2. Trade for Seneca Wallace.
