Huge FA Class in 2011 - But will anyone want to come here?

I would steer clear of the FA market. Why would anyone want ....say a diva WR from Oakland or a backup WR from Miami? An aging Safety from Indy and a draft flop out of Pittsburgh? Oh wait New England did it and won SB's (plural)
Randy Moss
Wes Welker
Rodney Harrison
Mike Vrabel

My FA wishlist is some of the following:

B Ruud, LB Bucs
S Tulloch, LB Titans
H Ngata, NT Ravens (Prob won't happen)
A Franklin, NT 49ers
D Joseph, OG Bucs
T Clabo, OT Falcons
R Kalil, C Panthers
C Bailey, CB Broncos (If the price is right)
V Jackson, WR Chargers

9 free agents in a single off season? Reading through this thread I would think that some would accuse you of blasphemy. Ok 8 because of Ngata, but the Ravens will lock up a long term deal before the end of the season or franchise him.

Bailey on the cheap would be great. I would be able to wear my #24 jerseys in public again.

I don't think we should do things like that anymore. Champ would have been a great life long Redskin. He would have been great to have around in his prime but that is past. We need the team to grow and excel as a unit. a spark here and there isnt goin to do anything.

We need all young hungry players with homegrown vets who are dedicated to the Redskins growth and willing to mentor the younger guys. A guy like D. Green who till this day cares about the team.

I don't want guys who spent their careers somewhere else anymore. It never works out for us.

If we are going to suffer thru the pains of losing we might as well suffer while knowing we are doing things the right way. In a direction to finally have a winning team.

Just my thoughts on the matter.

Actually that is exactly why I like Bailey. You mentioned the venerable D. Green, Champ was indeed mentored by him. They played in the same secondary, Bailey is a direct link to our glorious past, a coach/ player type role.

Totally!
To many guys came here cashed in and retired.....on the field! Find some younger dudes that are still trying to make a reputation.
Invest in a herd of high quality scouts!
.........unless a non-overthehill vet falls in your lap at a reasonable rate.

Champ isn't going to sign for cheap, and regardless the chances of him coming back is slim to none.

The only info I want to hear about our Corners is the resigning of Los and re upping Buchanon another year. Only thing in the secondary is adding competition to starting FS position. Our focus of change should be fully on the front 7 of D.

Didn't Bruce Allen change somewhere around 21 players in the Bucs' big season?

9 is pocket-lint to him.
