Coming Down the Pike....?

Article says Bugel was in San Diego. I remember him being in ARizona and Oakland but not San Diego. When was he the coach there?

Bugel was in SD from '98-'01

I have to admit I didn't realize he was out there either.

Do you not think it is odd that really good defensive players avoid Washington as much as possible. The only standout players on the D are players we have drafted Smoot Bailey Arrington and hopefully Taylor.

Some moderate players are attracted by the opening of the purse strings like Wilkinson and Stubblefield or one last shot at glory Smith or to try and revive a flagging carear such as Gardner and Russell.

Also no defensive players leave here and set the world alight really Barber and ND Kalu are the only players who come to mind in recent years who buck this trend...

The question is why? Ever since the White snub we have never had top players stop here.

It's all a matter of what you're willing to pay. Danny has coughed up much more cash on the offense, but that doesn't mean D players won't come here. I'm sure we could have outbid philly for Kearse, but why? Let's build with players like Washington and Taylor.

And remember these names: Stubblefield, Wilkinson, Dieon, Trotter? They were big names when we payed for them, and they SUCKED! Stubblefield had come off a NFL defensive player of the year, Trotter was a pro-bowler.

umm, marcus washington, mr. barrow, shawn springs are all top defensive players.

Washington did pick up linebacker Dominique Stevenson off waivers, according to a source familiar with the move. Stevenson, who was released by the Buffalo Bills, is known as an adept special teams player. Clifton Smith was cut to make room for Stevenson, who played in Buffalo for former Bills coach and current Washington assistant head coach for defense Gregg Williams.

if we bring someone in, who do we cut? an H back maybe...

I would think that if somebody's got to be released now (after Clifton Smith), it would have to be Rock. With Portis, Betts and Morton in front of him, there's just too many at that position.
