My offseason changes.

Question could Barrow play some reps at D end? I always like rotating players it makes them last longer

As for draft day I would like to see us take Mike Williams, he has something special and with the right coaching (Art Monk hired as a assistant) he could be awesome. He is a TO, Plaxico type player. I rather see us on draft day take a guy like that, because I'd like to see him here longer than 2 years. Which usually happens with our free agents.

We also need the following;
Blocking TE
offensive Guard/ center
Pass rushing D end

Smoot needs to get his head out of the clouds and stay here where he fits. If he continues to act stupid, I 'd franchise, and trade him to the Chiefs for the great blocking TE Jason Dunn and a third round this year, plus hopefully a 1st round next year. As for his replacement, Woodson will be avialable, so will Rolle, Mario edwards or we can move up Harris to start.

Guys I'd like to see brought in would be John Abraham, David Givens, Charles Woodson, and Mike Alstot.Okay let me explain my madness. I' d only pay the price for Abraham, and Givens. John is a beast and would only better our defense. Givens would fit nicely in our wr rotation and bring a winning presence in the locker room. I think coles, Thrash
and Givens would be a great presence on how to be a great team player for Mike Williams and an awesome reciever with the killer work ethic. as for Woodson I'd only offer him the same thing we are offering Smoot if he didn't take it o well, I would just move up harris and try to sign mario edwards to a vet min then wait for the next years draft to take a cb. Mike Alstot I'd would like to give the Jerome Bettis treatment meaning bring him here for cheap and ask him to play in on goal line situations. If its would out he could be a facter as the season draws longer and prove to be a gem.

I'd get rid of all the guys u stated plus McCants and Wynn 'they are the weakest links, goodbye'. Restructure Samuels and Brunnel and there u have it anwsome team. O yeah also Franz, we have to make roster numbers and with Bowen back he won't fit in.

It would cost us 8.8M to franchise Smoot... so in short, ain't happening.

As far as Alstott he's way too injured for my like. His career is done and we can get a more versatile and reliable fullback than Alstott.

Abraham would be great, but I don't know if our cap can support him. Givens has bust written all over him, imo. Woodson is okay, but not as good as smoot.

I think McCants and Wynn are both very good players. McCants is in Gibbs doghouse. I hate to see us pay a player 2mil so he can not dress out for a majority of the games... As far as Wynn, has he ever had a BAD year? He's been a solid player his whole career, and he continues that here. For him to stick around, we need him to restructure too. I can see guys on the defensive side of the ball being more willing to restructure than guys on the offensive side. The defensive side of the ball gets a lot of credit and helps their careers out!

I wouldn't want to make givens a #1 threat we have one in Coles he would play a similar role that he did in New England #3 in rotation with Jacobs, and Thrash. Mike Williams would be drafted to play the #2 Wr.

We wouldn't pay the 8.8 mil if he were to be traded away to the chiefs, I don't think we paid the cost for Bailey after we traded him did we? Wynn cost like 20 mil in his contract and he not a playmaker just solid. McCants is done here we might as well send somewhere so he can get pt and we get some trade value. Mike Alstot wouldn't play full back anymore he would be a short yardage goal line player although he's been hurt he would be used as much, just to be a threat with the redzone. he still hard to bring down ya know.

Daseal:

Hope you got some sleep after all that... :sleep:


I think a lot more of Evans than you do. I thought he was very good until he got hurt. He might require a bit more than the minimun to re-sign and I think he's worth it.

I think less of Royal than you do. I think the Redskins can find a player like Royal on the "cut lists" anytime after 15 August. Even so, they do need depth at TE and he ought ot know the offense by now so I'd keep him around for a tiny contract that had team incentives in it.

I have a hunch that other teams noticed Salave'a take a huge stpe forward in productivity and I suspect that he will get offers that will make him a lot more expensive next year than this year. I want the Skins to keep him as much as you do, but he isn't coming for a minimum number any more!

And you are on target in free agency with the idea that center is the top priority. The interior of the OL was "terrible" under Spurrier/Helton and advanced all the way up to "miserable" under Gibbs/Bugel. The issue is not the coaching; it's the talent.

Barrow will be lucky to play anywhere next year. And if he can play, the last thing I'd want to try to do is to teach a guy who has been playing ILB/MLB in the league for about ten years a new position.

true sports crum, somewhat... but how can we use him effectively, right now he's a waste of money

We use a full back so little in this offense. and he is to damn slow from handoff to the line. I will say it again, Alstott stinks.

Alstott is one of the all-time overrated players.
