Looks like we re in overhaul once again

Aww yeah. Time for Daniel Snyder to dump everyone but Jason Campbell and Clinton Portis and make a brand new team!... again!

You know its the off season baby! :woot:

God I hope this guys info is off. I really don't want to see the Skins blow a ton of cap space and draft picks on a aging vet who sees the Skins' front office as all day suckers.

Again.

Where did you see an overhaul in that article? Don't fall into the media trap of 'here we go again' because some people are coming in and some people are leaving, that's the nature of the NFL..

Chad Johnson is a Pro Bowl WR in his prime.. He just turned 30 a couple of weeks ago, averaged 90+ catches the past 6 yrs, over 1200 yds and 7 TD each of those years.. Lance Briggs is someone the FO has a hard on for at the LB position and he can come in and be a starter for years. McIntosh is coming off of an injury and Washington is coming off of 2 consecutive injury plagued seasons and is likely in his final year as a Redskin.

Other than those 2 names, the FO is looking at adding depth across the board..

The average turnover in the NFL during the offseason is typically 10-15 players per team so if we only bring in two or three and fill in the rest with low key role players that doesn't sound like much of an "overhaul" to me.

its the off season, so that gives everyone the right to panic

No kidding. Stupid FO! Trying to make our team better, for shame.

I have to agree. There didn't seem to be a single "WTF" move emntioned there. The question froms that article are what will it cost to get CJ. If it is as much as JLC mentioned then I say no go. The market was set last year with the Moss aquisition adn while that was undermarket deal it still should be significant. I hoestly wouldn't giv more than a 2nd and a 4th for CJ. I'd rather sign Javon Walker for an OK contract than trade good picks for CJ and cash him in with a giant contract. As for Briggs he'll certainly be cheaper than he would have been. Kudos for not pulling the trigger.

Everything else addresses a serious concern in terms of depth due to lack of skill or injury.

Maybe we could pull out the mega trade and give up Brandon Lloyd for Chad.

This article did give me that old feeling again, like Danny & Vinny haven't learned anything.

I always was optimistic in the offseason, but since 06 I've become more cynical. It's not the mention of 2 big FA's that's scary, it's the potential cost & the fact that one of them IMO has the potential to be a problem (CJ).

Let's all give it time of course, this article cites sources who are speculating based on what they've heard. Who knows what the real price for CJ & Briggs will be? I hope that Danny & Vinny are putting out smokescreens to the rest of the nfl. The Danny has shown recently that he's capable of patience & methodical decision making. I hope he takes the same approach this offseason.
