mooby 01-16-2020, 08:43 AM A stunningly obvious but refreshing to hear quote from Jack Del Rio via JP Finlay
Also said he wants a disruptive defensive line - i think Allen Payne and Ionnaidis are going to enjoy his defensive plans.

Yeah if I had a dime for every time I heard “there seemed to be some confusion “ while our D was on the field I would be rich. And I only watched like 5-6 games!
EdmundDorf 01-16-2020, 08:52 AM It was obvious to even the most casual observer.... don't think it takes a genius to see it, but gives the new DC reason to believe he can turn things around quickly
JoeRedskin 01-16-2020, 10:17 AM Couple of things.
1. "Snyder has undermined every coach but Gibbs": I think it's telling that Gibbs told RR "Keep DS in the loop" AND that RR deemed that info an important tidbit to share publicly. I imagine the conversation with JG went something like this: RR "So, is DS the interfering busybody the press says he is and is he going to undermine my decisions?" JG "DS is just passionate about the Skins, a big well-intentioned fan that happens to be the owner and wants to be part of the team. As long as you keep him informed about what you want to do, why you are doing it, and generally make him feel like an important part of the organization, you will be fine." From what I have seen, I think RR will manage DS just fine; that, more than anything else, will be the key to the Skins future success.
2. I hate everything about this regime because it is doing so many good things - without actually telling everyone they are doing good things ("We are winning the offseason", "We have a damn good culture.") - that I can't wait for next season to start. For the next nine months I will alternate between being excited and dreading the nuts kick - I am going to need medication. <sarcastic font off>.
Now, draft the Predator and pass me the damn Kool-Aid.
BigHairedAristocrat 01-16-2020, 02:51 PM For what its worth, Chris Russell mentioned on his podcast yesterday that he had checked with multiple sources who said the skins still plan to make another front office hire (like a GM/Team President) after the draft. Kyle Smith's contract runs through June 2021, so he will definitely be here for the next two offseasons, but no word on if he got an extension along with the promotion recently. Snyder and Rivera are both very high on Kyle Smith, so bringing in someone else does not mean undermining Kyle in any way. Russell said he would not be surprised if Rivera brought in the Panthers GM to take on a team president/GM role or if they brought in AJ Smith as a consulting role.
This all seems very reasonable to me, but I wont put much stock in it unless Finlay and Kiem start reporting it.

The nut kick really hinges on Haskins growth. There is absolutely no reason our defense should not be improved because of Del Rio and hopefully Young. Our staff is obviously better. Bruce FUCKING Allen is gone which can only be good. Our wr’s and rb’s look solid. We will add (hopefully smartly) through the draft and FA towards our needs - namely TE, OLine, and Secondary.
It really all hinges on Haskins. He is the elephant in the room right now.
Warthog 01-17-2020, 05:45 PM Our defense will improve quickly and immensely! I don’t think that with Chase and a couple good FA acquisitions at FS and CB it is unreasonable for the Redskins to have a top 10 defense. There is a good deal of talent on the defense which was just grossly mismanaged by Manusky. He was bad. This Redskin defense will shock the NFC East after it being so SOFT and DISORGANIZED for so many years. Players were lost in Greg Manusky’s complex system!
The offense is more of a project. The key acquisition is to rehire Trent, Scherff and Flowers to stabilize the line. They’ll draft a OL with the third round pick. Of all the FA acquisitions the Redskins need, the most important is TE. I think the team will spend top tier money for the best TE FA, who is young and can grow with Haskins. They also will spend cap money on a very good WR. As stated above, the future of the Redskins is tied to Haskins progression.
I think the ‘skins could be a 8-8 team next year with a hard-hitting defense and a pass throwing offense. No kool aid talk, that’s what I see now.

I think this speaks to the NFL looking at the Redskins as a great frozen wreck, that could be restored with a huge CHANGE OF CULTURE and adult supervision. Belichick would have hardened up this vessel, as RR is going to. No more ping pong games when you could be lifting or watching tape or learning from a coach or working on fundamentals!

F the ping pong table. No one is paying you millions of dollars to improve your ping pong game.
