You knew this was going to happen if the current regime wasn't successful. I don't understand how you expect things to be the same with new ownership and later on a new front office/coaching staff.

Be ready to say bye to Howell as well, since this to me smells like loading on picks to go up for a QB move.

This team has never, ever, ever, done a clean out like this before. But this needs to happen.

This is why I was rooting for this front office/coaching staff to succeed, but alas, they f*cked it up.

If Howell stays on his his current pace then he's not going anywhere. There's numerous games remaining this season, so he could potentially tail off. As long as he continues to show he can lead this team with better coaching, then he'll stay out.

I could have seen trading one but not both. If they plan on moving for one of the top QB’s they are going to have to drop some of their newly acquired picks to move up.

That's how I felt. Many of us (although admittedly not all) had some optimism headed into the season while recognizing that OL was not going to be a strength and that we did nothing meaningful on the LB front. Sure it would have been great to have more assets there, but virtually every team has holes somewhere and there's a difference between competing and being a SB contender. I thought we'd least compete, but here it is in fucking October, and we're throwing in the towel on yet another lost year.

I cannot imagine that some of our core players -- Allen, Payne, McLaurin -- are particularly happy right now. Going full rebuild, assuming it takes a few years, means that they've squandered a lot of their careers playing for the fuckwads running this team.

I am so tired of having so little to root for with this team come November. I know, I know -- the stench of Snyder runs deep, RR was the best we could get and he's not a good coach (your record says what you are), etc. But fuck, man -- it is a soul-sucking experience to root for this team (or at least, it has been for the last 25 years; my first 25 years rooting for this team were pretty fun). Is fucking Alice in Wonderland -- jam yesterday and jam tomorrow but never, ever jam today.

Can't agree by any stretch with "awesome year" but he will go have one now.

If anyone wants a white chase young "redskins" jersey I'm willing to part with it for a ham sandwich

Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder

Great trade. I'm happy with it. Better than a conditional 3rd rounder. I think we fleeced the Bears in this trade.

Big time. Sweat isn’t worth a pick in the 30s

I hope not because they'll need all the picks they can get with FA to fill the damn holes on this Swiss cheese roster 😅😅😅

Re: Sweat to the Bears for a 2nd rounder

Second and third rounders aren't gonna get you a top quarterback. That will take multiple first rounders for years.

And as they give away picks for possibly a new QB, then there’s less draft picks to fill the holes and paying for FA is not the way to go.

No but if you are trading a 2024 and 2025 first round, along with that extra 2nd and 3rd picks, that gives you ammo for a trade package and still allows you to draft in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. Also, this would depend on what our record looks like at the end of the season.

Mock drafts just got even more fun. I can draft 9 offensive lineman now.

Re: Sweat to the Bears for a 2nd rounder

I like getting rid of CY, but hate that he went to SF where the talent around him will let him take his plays off and still look good especially only getting a late 3rd from them;

I hate getting rid of Sweat and that he is going to a place like Chicago, but I like the trade value and hope the new era starts next season.

Overall I think Toohill showed enough to make a stout line with Allen/Payne. And the picks do give more room to improve our OL/LB corps

Sweat’s trade was too good to pass up. Gonna be top half of second round.

5 picks in the first 3 rounds is a great starting point for a rebuild
