Is the cap projected to go up next year. Part of me likes to think that we're getting 18 million in cap space next year but seeing as how contracts are usually designed to increase against the cap throughout the life of the contract you would have players getting paid more this year then the previous year and so on, and on top of that they're probably restructuring deals with the incoming space in mind.

Maybe something small like a mil or two, but it wont be substantial. It should start getting decent gains again in 2015 and beyond when the new TV contracts start getting accounted for.

What do you think of this Charlie Casserly comment in the video: "To me, they (the Redskins) don't have a bona fide starter at corner or at safety."?

Not far from the truth unfortunately. I would say we have starters, just not good ones. Depends on your view about how to interpret bona fide i guess...

I agree 100%. We don't have a bona fide starter at either position. Casserly is smart and knows what he's talking about.

I just feel that, as a group, our defensive backs may not be as bad as Charlie Casserly thinks.
Both DHall and Wilson have played well at CB for long stretches.
At safety, I think that Meriweather and Tanard Jackson are good NFL football players. We just need to get them both on the field for a full season. Reed Doughty is just what you want as a backup safety and ST player.
Getting Orakpo and (hopefully) Carriker back should help the pass rush, which, of course, should help the DB's.
As someone who remembers the Over The Hill Gang that George Allen assembled, I believe that a group of smart, experienced players who play well as a unit can achieve far more than one might think when looking at the individual talent on paper. Our DB's just need to stay healthy and free from suspensions.
Of course we need to add young, talented DB's in the draft, and I think we will, but the vets are still going to have to carry us in 2013.
