I say sign him before the season is over, the Redskins really need Fletcher he's the heart and soul of the Defense and a positive influence.
London Fletcher believes in Redskins, who should re-sign him before he reconsiders - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/redskins/london-fletcher-believes-in-redskins-who-should-re-sign-him-before-he-reconsiders/2011/12/13/gIQAAYRNsO_story.html)

I'd keep him around as long as he plays if he is willing. Then I'd figure out a way to make him a coach.
We need more guys like Fletcher, Kerrigan, Helu, Orakpo, etc.

I 2nd that. I coached inside backers in HS and college for years, i used to think Singletary was the best at getting everybody lined up, using his reads, and locking in on his keys, but Fletcher is right there on his heels. Singletary had a harder job with the 46, but Fletchers emotion and atention to detail is amazing. Keep him forever!!!

I'd hope we keep Fletcher as well, but if he signs somewhere else, I think we should think about drafting Luke Kuechly from Boston College.

Yeah i agree and he is the face of the entire team in my opinion. Of all the players we overpaid throughout Danny's tenure, Fletcher is one player that i would be cool with giving way too much.
From SFREDSKINS article:
Really, there’s no need to negotiate. Fletcher could probably dump his agent for this one. The Redskins should simply ask the fair-minded Fletcher how much he wants to continue to provide the type of professionalism uncommon in their organization.
That article is the best thing about the Redskins ive read in a while, thanks for posting it.
Does anyone know know where Fletcher's primary residence is? As good of a player is i wonder what team he would want to stay connected with after retirement. If this was his last year do you think he sees himself as a Redskin, Bill, or Ram?
