Yup, cut everyone, bring him in.

That played their hand a bit, I would think it safe to say they are going with the tackle with the 1st pick.

What level of secrecy does the first pick need?

As many have said here and on twitter, get Winston. Theres not many times you get a 2nd chance on a player you missed out on (especially the season before). Also, your QB is your most important position/player on your team. Your second most position/player on your team is your OL to protect your QB. What was the weakest position on our OL last year? RT. What position does Eric Winston play? RT. What scheme has Winston thrived in? The ZBS. What do we play? The ZBS.

This makes too much sense not to happen. I'm one of the biggest London Fletcher fans, but he has lost a step clearly, is becoming a liability in coverage, is contemplating retirement, and is due $6 million. He has a replacement at least (Keenan Robinson; maybe even Lorenzo). Polumbus was awful, he didn't even rank among the top 35 RTs in the league out of 32 teams, and he doesn't have a trustworthy backup.

Cut Fletch, Sign Winston, Protect your injured QB more, figure out the money after you sign him. Then you can worry about bringing back Fletch at a lower salary since we're the only team that needs/wants a 38 year old ILB near the end of his career.

Keenan Robinson is coming back from a serious knee injury, I wouldn't count on him till later in the season if lucky. It's more important to resign Lorenzo.

He had a torn muscle. Serious, but not that serious.

He tore his pec, not his knee.

I'm all in for Winston. He would be a huge upgrade.

Yep, you are right. I remember Joe Buck saying he tore his knee and that's what I went by. Should have known better.

[Gtothearry]

I think the Skins will make it happen this time.

All For it as well.

I am of the opinion that unless this comes real cheap, like less than 2 million a year the Redskkins will have no interest in this guy. He will turn 30 next season. We dont need this guy. We need FS and CB.

Who are the Redskkins? And why wouldn't we want a top 3 RT on our team?

Disagree. The skins need to protect their investment in RG3. There is no RT option better right now than Winston. Plus, this draft is stacked at CB and S. deal with those issues there. I say we go for him even if we have to sacrifice a player like fletcher...
