Tyson Clabo RG and Robert Gallery LG Shift Corey to Center. Resign Jamal Brown.

Good list

I think that Ruud might be a good pickup as an ILB.

I agree that we should resign Jammal Brown. He should be healthier and more familiar with the system this year. I think we should also resign Rex Grossman, Santana Moss, and Carlos Rogers.

I think we'll probably pass on DL FA's and play the young players we have at those positions.

As for DB's, I hope we don't spend a fortune on a CB (or any other player) in FA. I think I could stand it if we resign "Hands of Stone" to play CB. I certainly agree that we need to sign a CB in FA.

To be honest, I haven't a clue as to what to do about the interior OL in Free Agency. It would be nice to get Tyson Clabo or Davin Joseph but I doubt that's going to be possible.

There are a couple of other FA's I'd like to see the Skins go after. First, FB Vonta Leach (Houston). He is a top-notch blocker who already knows our offensive system. I'd give him a multi-year deal.

Second, if we go after a DL, then I'd like the Skins to consider Chris Hoke (Pitt). Chris already knows our defensive system. He could play either NT or DE. I'd offer him a one year deal while our younger DL players develop.

[diehardskin2982]

I like the idea of Hoke, we need some players from Pittburgh's defense. I'm not sure about resigning moss because I want to turn the page and go with a youth movement at WR. That is why I hope we would sign Steve Smith of the Giants instead.

Nnamdi, Nnamdi, Nnamdi. LOL.

Good list! But unfortunately, I doubt we will be able to get most of those players though.. I am not sure about those two LBs, if I recall right, I have read some articles that claimed their teams really want to resign them.. I don't believe we will go after Jenkins, only because we drafted a younger Jenkins.

As for CB, I would prefer to resign Rogers only because he knows our defense. Although, I would not oppose to the idea of signing Joseph.. Or even Nnamdi (I doubt he wants to sign with a team that is not considered as a contender team).

Edit: Seems like I was wrong about Jenkins.. Turns out that Jenkins is high on Redskins' list.

Jenkins is high on the Packers' list too with Johnny Jolly's issues

[skinsfaninok]

SS any word on Los? I know it's hard w this lockout crap but is he going to even consider coming back?

[SmootSmack]

Haven't heard anything new. Haven't heard anything new on the Skins since the draft actually

[mredskins]

So boring this whole lockout. Now that the Celtics are on the edge of bye bye I need the Bruins and Red Sox to keep my mind off the lockout.

Word is Cullen Jenkins is interested in playing for Washington

Sounds like Barry Coefield could be on the way out in NY. Anybody think he can play NT?

Cofield isn't a 3-4 NT. Decent rotation guy but not much else. We've already got Golston as that type of player.
