Garcon's not going anywhere because the McCloughan hire is a clear pivot towards the draft as the source of talent for this team. And since they have $20M in cap space for free agents already, and because they won't be looking to free agency for a huge talent bonanza, they won't feel the pressure to clear additional cap space by cutting Garcon.
He's very safe.
Do you think this means we see a TW extension this year?
Also, here's pretty good write up on the Skins team situation from overthecap.com:
Redskins 2015 Salary Cap Outlook - Over the Cap (http://overthecap.com/redskins-2015-salary-cap-outlook/)
for example:
Free Agents to Let Walk
Almost all of them…Washington continues to be one of the worst constructed teams in the NFL and they can help fix that by turning the roster over and rebuilding.
McCloughan has a job cut out for him.

the OTC article is junk. trade desean, force garcon to take a pay cut, cut bowen.
i mean, creating cap space is great and all, but if your team is worse off for it, or has to spend more money to replace those players, what's the point?

if we want to make some room, kerrigan and TW extensions would probably be option 1 and 1A.

I absolutely missed the trade DJax, that's simply crazy talk.

Not sure I disagree with cutting Bowen. He hasn't exactly been an impact player. And his cap number seels high for what he brings to us.

really happy to hear that this deal is finalized. Honestly, I haven't been this fired up since Gibbs 2.0.
I remember the Beathard/Gibbs days...Bobby built the team and Joe coached the players.
They did not always see eye to eye, but the results spoke for themselves.
I would love for those glory days to start returning soon!
I know one thing for sure, we will get a better roster in no time flat.
Hail!

Fair enough. The interesting part of the article to me involved the graphs. Why do we pay more than league average for both our OL and our DL yet regularly get beaten up front?
And, as for safety, obviously sometimes you get what you pay for.

No one is signed past the 2017 season, woah. This roster will be flipped in no time.
