Some interesting tidbits:
Tandler's Redskins Blog Ver. 02.01.07--It's been slow as far as Redskins news but that's about to change. It says here the Monk is in, Grimm is out, Branch is coming to DC but Clements is not.

He makes a great point though. Everyone needs a corner, corners want money, and others have a lot more money. Thus, we will not get a corner that others want.
Perhaps a more conservative approach regarding free agency is on the horizon?
I know, it sounds ridiculous.

Yeah, maybe the Redskins have handicapped themselves into something that fans might approve of (a draft-centered approach). Either that or they will simply trade for guys so they don't have to compete with other teams on the open market for free agents.

A few weeks back I read that the Rams are probably going to make a big push for Clements and that they seem to have enough room to get him.
Maybe we've gotten spoiled into thinking that any player that we want is just a quick flight in Redskins 1 away.

Don't the Rams have $20M+ in cap room?
Perhaps a more conservative approach regarding free agency is on the horizon?

I have to admit I read this post and started laughing. While I love the action in the off season in FA, as what else is there? I want to see no more Archuleta's.

Since it doesn't seem like we're getting Clements, does that mean that we will address the corner position in the draft or sign a FA that isn't as "splashy" as Clements?
Or could it mean that we're not addressing it at all and sticking with the current personnel? The thought of that scares the hell out of me.
There's no way we can stand pat with our current CB crew.
