Are the Skins hiding something?

I like Macklin, he'd provide good depth. Inerestingly enough, the Broncos were looking at him and I think the Bly trade would have been contigent upon Denver getting Macklin
everyone at my store was telling him to come home to washington and they didnt say he acted one way or another..he just kept sayin he had a meeting

Regardless of what we do for the remainder of the offseason, there's not going to be many openings for starters on this team. The roster is pretty much set already, that's why despite the fact we need draft picks, this may not be the year we look to add a great deal in the draft. We need to draft an impact player for the D-line which is the only area where a draft pick can become a starter. I'm not in favor of foregoing a potential starter for depth players with no guarentee they will even make the team. Right now, we need a sure thing, someone who can step in and play now because there won't be a lot of new-comers making this team.

We are in prime position to get a guy who will eventually come the face of our defense, and trading that away would not be smart.

People are suggesting that we take a shot at fixing all of our defensive problems in one year. Well, we are No. 32 in defense, so that's just not going to happen. We can rebuild this team by getting QUALITY defensive lineman who are short on weaknesses. There's only a handful of such players in the draft and 6 is a good spot to get one.

But so is 8 or 9 if we can swing that trade. That is NOW my optimal scenario. Trade with whoever wants to in those spots, Okoye should still be available, and use whatever we pick up on a guard. Grubbs or Blaylock.

moving down two spots isn't going to get us a pick high enough for either of those guards.

I think that unless one or both go in the late first, they'll slip into the second where an early second rounder could get us one of them.

Man, cheer up and chill out! We haven't even gotten a 1/3 of the way through the offseason yet. I'm as excited about the Skins as I've been in years. We have Joe Gibbs and world of talent on this team, that alone pumps me up! I know this past season was awful, but I would like to think things will be a lot better next season. I like the moves that have been made so far this offseason, and I think the draft will bring us some more talent to help us win. I hope you are right...The one thing that I see that brings hope is J.Campbell. He looks to be the real deal! As for the draft again I hope you are right. Trade down pick up more picks. Leave next years draft alone and don't give it away!

yeah, but where do we get an early second? moving from 6 to 9 doesn't really get us that. b grubbs is probably in the 20s of the first round somewhere.

Yea, we're probably in talks to hire Bill Parcells as Senior Associate Head Coach of Defense and Head Chef....that's what's cooking.
