Certainly young talent is needed; however, am I the only fan wondering whether it's time for a new position coach? Absolutely no disrespect to Buges. Can't even imagine what he endured over the course of the season w/ his daughter passing away, but I wonder whether he is looking beyond football at this point (and rightfully so).

The 'O7 season is a good example of Buges ability. Considering all that happened in his life this season and his past track record Buges deserves to stay if he wants. I would like to see him get a yonf offensive line assistant that is familiar with zone blocking and WCO blocking schemes.
Also, a little more talent would help.

2) Shawn Springs will not be a Redskin in '09. Way too much time on the sideline, and his final showing was anything but impressive. Also, consider the cap hit.

Maybe so, unless he restructures and moves to safety.

3) Smoot... holy crap! I can't believe this is the same player I watched pick off passes left and right opposite Bailey. He's gone or there's some kind of conspiracy.

Bye-bye Smooter

... implications of Springs/Smoot: Hall will be signed and Rogers retained. I think the rumors surrounding Rogers departure must be bogus. The guy's only real issue was the hoof-hands and he finally makes a pretty impressive INT to end the season. C'mon, we have to keep him. But we need a third corner, and here's where cutting Torrence was a mistake IMO.

Maybe we could get Torrence or Richardson back this offseason.

4) Stan Hixon must go. Nuff said.
|
Agreed. Nothing against Stan except for the progress of the rookie WRs.
But, more importantly why not get a WCO WR coach on staff?

5) Campbell will be money next year (mark it, dude). He's started coming into his own. I loved the way he took off for yards when everybody was covered. But most importantly, Zorn has committed to developing JC into a great QB. JC will be much improved therefor, so long as we make some smart personnel/staff changes, our offense will be much improved.

Agreed. When the pass-pro improves the offense can be more aggressive/vertcal the receivers will have to step up too.
