Griffin's impact on the off-season FA/draft

FA:
Eddie Royal
Vincent Jackson
Brandon Carr
Ben Grubbs/Ryan Harris
Paul Soilai
Brandon Carr/Courtland Finnegan

Draft:
1st: The Robert Griffin III
3rd: Joe Adams/Dwight Jones
4th: David Molk
4th: Chris Rainey
5th: BPA
7th: BPA
7th: BPA

Forgot to put him down if he's healthy hell yeah, did you stutter you put Carr down twice.

Good thread.

I'd like to see them approach it aggressively. Not reckless. I've had enough of that for this week. But instead of throwing a truck load of money at Vincent Jackson, even though we know we're just going to have him on the downside of his career, I'd be aggressive in the WR trade market.

I would sign these players to relatively large money deals:

S Dwight Lowery
S LaRon Landry

I would sign these players to starters salaries:

OT Marcus McNeill (1 year - $4 million, pending release of course)
LB Geno Hayes
LB Erin Henderson OR LB London Fletcher

I would pick these players out of the bargain bin:

CB Tim Jennings
WR Chaz Schilens
RB LaDainian Tomlinson

To go with a number of re-signings we would already be considering. And I would look to bring in help at WR that is perhaps a better fit for our system. Jackson is a good fit, but a big money deal at 29 probably makes as much sense as a big money deal to Haynesworth at age 28, a guy who also fit our scheme.

Maybe Markelle Martin in the 3rd since we will sign a WR maybe 2.

Cut:
Armstrong
Banks
Austin
Stallworth
Try to trade Moss for a 4th or 5th and if no one takes him think about cutting him

An offense of:
QB Robert Griffin III
RB Roy Helu/Evan Royster
FB Darrell Young
WR Vincent Jackson/Leonard Hankerson/Jabar Gaffney/Eddie Royal/Santana Moss
TE Fred Davis/Chris Cooley
LT Trent Williams
LG Ben Grubbs
C David Molk
RG Chris Chester
RT Willie Smith?
RB/WR/KR/PR Chris Rainey

Looks pretty good doesn't it?

I'm not a big Eddie Royal fan, but just so all you VT guys don't think I hate your team, I would want to see what kind of cash it would cost to get Josh Morgan locked up.

The right tackle position also needs to be addressed. LT, LG, C, and RG are pretty much solid. Although the offensive line receives criticism, I like our o-line. We just need a more productive right tackle. Maurice Hurt might be able to solidify himself there. If not, we should draft a young prospect or get one in free agency.

RT one word, Willie Smith. He proved he could play against some of the best pass rushers the last 5 games and held his own, he will get better.

I guess I like him that much. lol

That would be my pick, he's the sleeper WR. I've seen plenty of him and he keeps improving, unfortunately he got hurt last year and missed most of it.

7th: BPA

I like Carr, but he is young and teams may overpay for him. Too band the chiefs tagged Bowe though. Also definitely like Royal, but VJ could be a headache?

Okay. That who I meant to say. For whatever reason, I get Maurice Hurt and Willie Smith mixed up. Smith did play solidly at left tackle down the stretch of the season.

Also, if we had a crappy first round pick, I'd use it in a second on Mike Wallace(first round tender). Who looks a whole lot better now that Blackmon is barely 6'0, and slower then Wallace.
