SO what you are saying is JLC is a serious insider??? I have to disagree. What does he ever say that half of the the mods at extremeskins don't know two hours before he does.

There is no mandate keeping JLC out. He has good relationships within Redskins Park. And I'm sure the mods at ES get a lot of their info from him. JLC, being a professional, is a bit more diligent in determining the potential viability of his information before throwing it out there online.

I believe they also reported the Redskins said no to that. And I'm pretty sure the request was made prior to the Broncos signing Henry

Just because Snyder hates the Post doesn't mean he hates JLC. JLC has a lot of friends in the Redskins org. and i'm sure he doesn't have a problem getting info from them.

Interesting since JLC basically said exactly what we were doing this offseason about 3 weeks ago.

Dan Snyder has a horrible relationship with the Washington Post. JLC works for the Post. Do you honestly believe he is an insider? I'm just very skeptical of most sports writers when it comes to the Skins nowadays.

Ok so I guess you the consensus is JLC knows what he is talking about.

Well, you think what you think. So do you turn to ES for all your Redskins info then?

No I don't Tafkas do you get all your inside info from the ESPN mothership?

[Dirtbag59]

Why are people going after JLC? I mean lets face the guy has been the first to break every Redskin related story this offseason so give it a rest.

If you want to trash a source then go after PFT.

I still think there is a very good chance we see Bly come to DC, along with Denver's first-round pick, and second- and/or third-round pick, plus maybe a conditional late round pick, in exchange for the 6th overall pick.

Also, Springs would likely get traded for picks (don't rule out him landing in Detroit, Arizona or even Baltimore) and Bly gets his money in Washington..

Great Info.

This sounds like a good idea, if we could go into the draft with a 1st round as well as a 2nd and 3rd along with Bly at CB and having gained alot more cap sapce given our trade of Springs, it is all positive.
