Injuries will create a youth movement opportunity

Yes, there will continue to be lots of change over the offseason. I actually miss CP being in there. He looked good and can block like no other. But, yes, hopefully we can see more of some young guys:

Banks
James Davis
Riley
Maybe Austin

Mike Shanahan is a smart guy though. If Austin was ready or deserved to be activated he would be. We're still 5-5 and right in the mix. MS wants to win games #1.

I think that the young guys might be inexperienced, but provide enthusiasm and energy. T Williams, Banks, K Williams, Torain, Gano have all produced in some way. I really want to see Davis and Austin on the roster, they could provide a nice spark during the tough stretch coming up.

Shanahan turned over 1/3 of the roster in a year with limited free agents. You can't rebuild a team in one year. We're going to see more change next year.

Great point.
It amazes me how impatient the Redskins fans are. They loose sight that Shanahan and Allen inherited a 4-12 mess that we can call a team.
To be 5-5 at this point is an improvement, we have won more games than all of last year.
It's funny how in the past almost everyone gave Snyder shit for being impatient and not building a team the old fashion way. Now that we finally are building a team over time, some are saying it taking too long or we are not doing it fast enough. Redskins fans are never happy.

Skins plan on adding a safety to the roster this week. Lendy Holmes I guess is the obvious choice, but I'm not sure it'll be him

Great point.

I agree alot of fans are impatient. I think, though, that you are seeing a bit of the extreme fan in the blogging world though. It's not a full sample size of fans. Same thing on the radio, the fans you hear from are generally "extreme" fans. Not that those fans that aren't posting are not big time fans, they just aren't letting their opinions out.

It's going to take some time and i think most fans realize that. There are some idiots out there that just want to fire everyone after a loss too. It's going to take a long time to fix what Vinny did here.

I'm pissed that we gave up future wins for a temporary improvement in record. Treading water is not going to get us to a Super Bowl.

Preach on brother.

Redskins Insider - Chad Simpson, Anderson Russell to IR (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/clinton-portis/chad-simpson-anderson-russell.html#more)

Just out of curiosity, has Shanahan ever had a late round running back named Davis that was taken in the 6th round of the draft? I don't know if he can succeed with such an unfamiliar last name.

Davis tweeted Monday afternoon: "The cuffs has been taken off the beast."
LOL, I hope so.

In your opinion.
Someone's temporary improvement is someone elses last key piece to a Super Bowl roster. Remember Gibbs did not want Theisman and Riggins when he first got here? There is no 100% perfect single way to build a team. You can be stocked with a ton of great draft picks, but if you do not know how to draft (Snyderatto) and have some luck, all those picks will go to waste.
You never know what can happen in a year or two...we could win a Super Bowl with Mcnabb in the next year or two? Stranger things have happened.
