some of this stuff isnt making sense.
since we dont keep out top pick because of the money involved, does that mean we dont sign smoot either? you cant have it both ways. you can say lets not get involved in a monsterous deal and then sign smoot to top 10 CB money.
what about pierce(RFA)? do we offer a first round pick money and let another team take him for the pick in the 2006 draft or do we match the monsterous offer?
like it or not, we are either going to have to start dumping good players are have to pay large salaries to keep players and picks.
here is what i think the redskins need to do.
brunell: do anything to let the guy go, oven if they ahve to take a major cap hit. i hate looking at him on the sidelines.
gardner: let him finish out his final year of his contract, typically players like this have tremendous years and make huge money and go to another team. so its a bad idea to cut someone in the final year of the contract.
barrow/pierce: you can only keep one. there is no room in an nfl roster for a high price reserve except at QB. pierce is a Restricted free agent. we offer him the first round tender, let another team sign him to an offer sheet, we then either match or take a draft pick in 2006. if pierce is gone, we have to keep barrow. Keep in mind barrow has been hurt, so its a bad move to let pierce go if barrow cant play anymore, but its a great move if barrow plays like he did with the giants.
morton: if we had him last week, we wouldnt have lost
.
its hard to play a special teamer a few million. if we are going to keep him, he has to be our 3rd down back.
Jansen: if he passes the physical, sign him.
McCants: Use him. he has good hands, good size and decent speed. use him in the slot, have him catch those short patterns over the middle. use him for jump balls(yes joe, please add the jumpball throws into the playbook). I'm upset that gibbs let gardner get away with all those dropped balls, mccants should have replaced him for atleast a half a game.
samuels: i cant tell you how much i hate the guy. but there isnt much we can do with the guy. he makes too much money to cut and i doubt that he would restructure. god i hate the guy.
the O LINE: rebuild that son of a bitch. get some bad mother fuckers with a mean streak so atleast we can get a push on 3rd and short. raymer is a backup, dockery is a back up, cant blame brown because he was at home a week before the season started. get some guys with heart and testicles not some bitch like samuels who doesnt fight when he plays against guys like KGB(i cant spell his name) or Alex brown.
we dont need mike williams if joe gibbs is going to keep his receivers running comeback routes(thats like using a bentley to deliver mail).
trade down and get two good picks for linemen, D or O line. in the 3rd round, draft a basketball player to play tightend.
pick up former junkie/prisoner bam morris for minimum salary. he is a big 3rd down back.
but most importanly, dont restructure S.taylors contract when he holds out. if you do, he will hold out every year.
