OK, Now I am going to start some controversy, I say the biggest cap problem that we have is Lavar, paying a LB the kind of money we pay him for the production he bring's is insane, we could fill his spot in a heartbeat, and have similar production under William's system, in fact Pierce on the outside and Barrow or another capable MLB inside and we would be as good or better, and we would have a lot more money to improve the rest of the team, don't know what kind of a cap hit we would take trading him, but I do know he is 1 of the most overated, and overhyped player's in the NFL. I also agree with Canuck on Samuel's, I don't believe his play support's his salary, he's good, not great, but he will want top dollar and I don't think he's worth it, if Jansen comes back at full strength, I could see us moving him to the left side, if he can handle Strahan, he can handle anyone coming off the left side as well.

barrow is gonna retire soon, its a big risk dumping lavar, who btw, didn't get that great of a deal i don't believe.
next year wynn brunell and samuels are going to be the most overpaid... barrow too if he doesn't play.
I'm not sure of the #'s but I don't think trading LaVar would be a very smart move cap wise.
I think keeping Samuels will be a high priority, Smoot as well.

That's the one prob. he just signed a new deal I imagine it would hit us pretty hard. To bad.

Lavar's contract has been reworked so many times it's hard to be sure of the numbers. But from what I can tell he'll be here for a while. The earliest I can see the Redskins even considering trading/cutting LA would be prior to the 2007 season.
PS - Thanks to all for the kind remarks! :food-smil

I think JG likes LaVar. I believe he's called him a 'Redskin' in the past. I can see LaVar playing here until he gets old, believes he deserves more than he's worth, and goes elsewhere.

Canuck seems to be avoiding the most pressing question....what do we about Ade when his contract expires after next season, do we franchise him?

how dare you question ade's loyalty... such treason should afford one a quick execution. Ade is the NFL's best player and shall be paid as such. We never needed samuels smoot or lavar that much anyways.
