Redskins GM Scot McCloughan has final say over the 53-man roster.

Y would we get rid of PG? He's a stud

I like PG and would like to keep him.
But if our cap spreadsheet is accurate PG, DJax and Andre Roberts will account for $23.20million of our cap next season. That is not the salary structure I want for a non playoff team that can't do the basics of protecting its Qb's and covering WR in this pass happy league. We do not need Ferrari's in the garage when we do not have money for gasoline. We have to learn to tie our shoes and learn to walk before we can run. Some difficult changes have to happen at WR salary cap wise. Jus sayin.

Love this...

Wait, so the coach cannot cut a player without checking with SM? Wow.

Strikes me as a bit odd but, hopefully, Gruden and he can work through any big issues.

Clearly, the keys to the car were just handed to Mr. McCloughan.

Let's just hope we don't get a DWI. (I kid, I kid!)

This is the best thing I've seen in a LONG time. He should be f'n embarrassed and should have been for the better part of the past 15 years. I want to believe that he will stay away and just let things happen but I've been down this road too many times to get fooled by January proclamations. I'll believe it when I see it.

im down right giddy.

of course, now the hard work for them and the patience for us begins.

I'm sure his contract guarantees him full control. Regardless, Danny tends to not interfere with those he trusts/respects.
