2012 Redskins Free Agency Tracker

Of course, building through the draft is a luxury we have very little right now. So it's essential that we use free agency. The picks that we lost (basically 2 first rounders and a second) would typically equal at least one stud, possibly two. So it's on us now to aggresively pursue some studs in free agency. That is going to cost us, and it will be a risk, but it's really our only option at this point. It won't be enough to just surround Griffin with 21 role players.

Forgot last year's draft already?

5 picks left by Vinny --> 12 SOLID picks by Shanallenhan.

I expect a repeat performance.

I didn't forget last year's draft, nor did I fogret last week's trade. I guess the point I was making was that we'll be able to make some solid moves in the draft, but we're limited as to our ability to draft a pro-bowl caliber player (aside from Griffin, of course!).

The picks that they lost (basically two first rounders and a second) would typically equal at least one stud, possibly two.

How so? At least for 2012....we are using our first to draft our Franchise QB, and it will cost us only an additional 2.

We don't need a lot of first round picks. If we sign Winston we took care of the two tackles, what we need are corners, guards and depth for the online, receiver and safeties and their aren't many of those in free agency, however their are a lot of good guards coming out this year in the draft like the kid Silatolu from Midwestern State who just mauls people and seems like that kind of olinemen that went to a small school but has heart and a mean streak. There are a lot of good corners or players that played corner like Johnson from Montana and could possibly move to safety. Ryan Broyles is a great slot receiver and their is that kid who went to a small school his name i completely forget (I just found out it was Brian Quick), Cooley hopefully will start to work hard again cause he has a qb which will give us Cooley and Davis(this is hopeful) we don't need a first round pick in order to add depth and make our team better. If you want to be the Eagles and probably never win a superbowl with their current roster then build through free agency. But we can draft players and sign a few key guys and we will be ok. I believe in Griffin

He haw....5 pages and we havent even signed anyone yet.
Is it 4:30 yet?

I saw in the article posting on ESPN about the cap hit, that we have signed Colston?

I take that to mean we have a deal inplace waiting for the appointed time to put ink to paper.
